After saying goodbye to his parents, Aldrian brought Baek Jimin, Xin Haotian, and Angelica with him as he teleported them to the area near the troops of his empire. They were gathered near the central region of the Eternal Sanctuary Forest, where a large interstellar vessel awaited them not far away.
This was the interstellar vessel that he had bought from Emperor Rozwald. The emperor had gladly sold it to him since Aldrian offered a price higher than it was supposed to be. Aldrian did not care, as he possessed immense wealth at this point and believed there would be much more to come.
When Aldrian appeared near his empire's troops, he saw many of his acquaintances. The kings and leaders of several families had also decided to accompany him on this expedition.
The troops were still in the middle of embarking onto the vessel. The total number of soldiers the Aster Empire brought reached six hundred thousand, with an average cultivation at the Duke stage.
