Jin had already perished, yet the grasslands to the north still watched with rapacious eyes, as Guo Jing presided over the situation in Xiangyang from his seat.
But suddenly, the tense situation in the north ceased, the grassland armies retreated overnight, and then more and more refugees started arriving from the north, speaking of some man-eating giants that had appeared on the grasslands.
The descriptions were as exaggerated as they could possibly be.
Some said they were as tall as houses, others claimed they were higher than city walls, and there were even those who said they were taller than mountains, with the smallest being around three to four meters.
Because the information was too chaotic, the imperial court could only settle these refugees as best as possible, while also reinforcing the defenses of Xiangyang.
