They formed up into an army and began to move back toward the original line of defense. They had blown right by it and would have no support unless they returned to it.
The good news was that if they rushed, they should be faster so long as they deactivated their formation.
The bad news was that it was hard to pass on information on this land. If they didn't get information to their adjacent armies, then the two armies rushing after them now just might use it as an attempt to push the defensive line before they could be swallowed up.
However, none of them expected that before they could make it much further, a voice would echo.
"That's enough."
The shadow of a Dao God filled the skies and the rumbling armies came to a stop.
Ryu's gaze narrowed, but what he worried about didn't occur. Instead, both armies retreated like a tide.
'Is that all?'
After a while, Ryu accepted it. It made sense.
