Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, night had fallen.
The city was lit up as usual, but this was destined to be no ordinary night.
In a residential courtyard somewhere in Jinmen, high-level government officials, senior military officers, and other prominent figures of Jinmen's elite arrived one after another, all in disguise.
These were all key figures from the Beidou Army's faction in Jinmen. On paper, Jinmen was still territory under the Beidou Army's control. However, the presence of the Six Countries Concession, other Warlords, the Martial Arts Association, and powerful domestic business interests had severely limited the local government's authority and influence, forcing them to keep a low profile.
But now, they saw a glimmer of hope. The Beidou Army might finally have a chance to bring Jinmen completely back under its control, and when that happened, their own status would naturally rise with the tide.
