While a war happened in the Monstrous Flame Sect, Birch City was not entirely peaceful. A shadowy figure stabbed a man walking down the street and dragged him into a nearby alley.
"Who exposed me?"
The figure asked threateningly. The man stabbed in his stomach looked at his bleeding wound with horror. Though not fatal, it needed to be treated soon.
"I… I only delivered the information gathered. I do not know who sent what…"
The figure in black sneered.
"Since when did you start caring about loyalty over your life? Or have you fallen for that girl? Let me tell you one thing; You have no chance with her."
The man flinched but he still looked fiercely at the figure in the dark.
"Even if you kill me, I will not be a traitor like you. I will not betray our savior."
