Clip Clop! Clip Clop!
Sounds of a horse's hooves beating the hard ground echoed from the cave tunnel.
He may have missed the sound earlier but it was impossible to not hear it now. Sect Master Yan looked at the tunnel and then at injured Lu Shao. He decided to kill him before the strangers arrived.
To demoralize the weak Lu Shao, Sect Master Yan mocked him.
"Now obediently die, because no one will save you!"
Yan Hao said with a vicious smirk. Just as he was about to bring his staff down on Lu Shao's head, a loud shout reverberated in the tunnel.
"Who says no one will save him? His saviors are here!"
A majestic brown horse beast galloped out of the tunnel and stopped between Sect Master Yan and Commander Lu Shao. City Lord Zhen, parried the strike of the staff with his sword and protected Lu Shao.
Sect Master Yan jumped back upon seeing who the newcomers were. He looked at Clan Master Qing and City Lord with disbelief!
