Boom!
It was not yet dawn when the courtyard door was kicked open.
Li Yan woke up in alarm, grabbed his long saber, and was about to escape through the window when his expression suddenly changed, prompting him to quickly crouch down.
He gently pried open the window with the hilt of his saber, only to see silhouettes leaping atop the courtyard wall, drawing bows and aiming at all the rooms.
They were from the Captain Bureau!
Li Yan's brow furrowed deeply. What did these black dogs want from them?
"Who's there? Show yourself!"
From another room, Sha Lifei also roared through the window.
He possessed no Divine Skills and, in the pitch dark, couldn't see that it was the men from the Captain Bureau.
"Captain Bureau, investigating the rebels!"
Accompanied by a cold voice, a man entered from outside, tall and with a charred face, his eyes sinister, carrying a long spear in hand.
"I'll count to three; if you don't come out, I'll kill without mercy!"
Kill without mercy?
