The following day, when Ikasa and Feng Yan reached the slums, they saw two groups of people facing off against each other.
Of the two groups, one was led by Chu Kuang. Ikasa noticed many familiar faces in the group.
Scarface, who was part of Feng Yan's Gang. Hook-Nosed Guy, who was competing for Xin Ruo's courtship.
The other two whose names he didn't know but whose faces he remembered from his second visit to slums when he received special treatment and a warning.
Back then, he was so weak. And now, these people had all agreed to follow him.
The other group was led by a woman. It mainly consisted of the family members who had spoken against leaving for Birch City.
As they neared the location of the confrontation, the words being exchanged became clearer.
"How long do you want us to decay in this hellhole? Just because you don't want to leave doesn't mean you can stop us from leaving!"
