...
The belly of Da Qian.
On the southeastern coast of West Sea Prefecture.
Three gigantic Kunmu vessels were docked at the shore.
A major battle had just ended not long ago, and remnants of the combat lingered on the giant vessel. At this moment, aside from the basic vigilance, most of the soldiers were resting or half-squinting as they recuperated, helping each other treat wounds.
Inside one of the giant vessels, Demon Lord Xietong, Yinsha Sect's Demon Lord Yin Sha, Emperor Nanqin Yuan You, and Emperor West Jin Yan Qing were gathered in a rare temporary meeting.
"Now that we've captured the West Sea Prefecture, going further inland, the Kunmu vessels can't advance. If we fight, we'll have to switch to river boats or disembark for land battles." Emperor Yan Qing had evidently spent much energy lately, and his face showed visible fatigue, "But now our soldiers are very weary, and the casualties are significant. To be prudent, I think we should halt our offensive."
