Cave's End City isn't a mediocre city; it is certainly not one of the most powerful cities, either. It lies far from the weakest cultivation realms, distant from most activity. Completing a mission here would take a year, and even if completed, it would earn only the smallest amount of merit.
Unfortunately, Kuang Fung Ji was the newest captain, and this sort of mission is always assigned to the youngest, with no room for complaints.
The legion she was given was a seasoned team, consisting solely of men, all of whom were coarse killers.
None of them were eligible for rank promotion, and they were often referred to as bottom-feeders. However, even though these cultivators were held in low regard elsewhere, they were revered as gods in Cave's End, which is precisely why they were chosen to handle this lengthy mission.
