"The Monstrous Flame Sect has captured the Port."
Lord of the Birch City, Zhen Wu stated the fact in a meeting with his trusted partners and subordinates. His face was grave and his usually neat beard was scraggly.
Ikasa could see dark circles and extreme fatigue on the City Lord's face. First the terrorist attacks and then the occupation of the Port by the Monstrous Flame Sect; These incidents happening in succession had taken a toll on his health.
Even Ikasa couldn't sleep last night. The shocking developments with Yin Ying's cryptic message had kept him awake.
'Their real target is you.'
At first, Ikasa assumed she was talking about the Sect. However, after hearing the news from the Port, he was not so sure.
'The Sect has to have a helper in the dark. They never would have the guts to come out after seeing the performance of Feng Yan. But who is it?'
