Zong Shen's face carried a smile.
To Favide, who survived the calamity, he looked like a remarkable savior.
"The lord you served has already fallen beneath the tusks of the Mutated Ghoul."
"My soldiers and I arrived a step too late."
"However, after a tough battle, we still managed to take down that stinking creature and avenged the poor lord."
"Now, are you willing to honor the will of the deceased and pledge allegiance to me?"
Zong Shen said straightforwardly.
Upon hearing this, Favide slowly stood up from the embrace of the Wolf Cavalry.
With a melancholic face, he glanced at the unlucky lord's remains.
Not responding directly to Zong Shen, he instead walked slowly to the corpse's side.
He bowed to Zong Shen and asked respectfully.
"Honorable Lord, thank you for saving my life."
"Before I vow my allegiance to you, may I use the rites of fire to prevent my former lord's body from desecration?"
Zong Shen nodded and gestured a go-ahead.
