Lu Chao no longer paid any mind to Zheng Zhuhe. He looked at everyone present and thanked them profusely.
If not for everyone's desperate struggle and cooperation, they would have been in grave danger this time.
Lu Chao, Cheng Yunsu, Cheng Chuming—all of them had nearly died here.
He then gathered all his core personnel. His voice was heavy as he said, "We may have won, but the power of the Cyan Sword Great Empire is undeniable and unavoidable. Everyone must be mentally prepared."
At Lu Chao's words, everyone's hearts sank.
'That's right. It was just one Vice Commander Liu, and he left us in such a sorry state.'
'The Azure Flame Domain as a whole is too weak.'
Looking at the crowd again, Lu Chao took a deep breath and continued, "From now on, everyone must begin frantically cultivating the Azure Flame Sect's Martial Dao and Soldier Dao—that is, the contents of the *Azure Flame Treasure Manual*. Time is short. We must achieve a comprehensive breakthrough."
