Seeing that the other party still refused to recognize his situation, Liu Yuan's face grew even darker. He snorted with a mocking edge, "In these times of chaos and disorder, I am merely seeking self-protection, dealing with bandits and disorderly soldiers. I hope the official will not take offense."
"Is this me failing to maintain order?" The platoon leader replied matter-of-factly, "Then Master Liu should enter the city and lodge a complaint with the newly appointed governor."
"You must be joking," Liu Yuan said disinterestedly, his smile not reaching his eyes.
"Put down your weapons…" The platoon leader's smile faded, and he chastised sharply, "pointing a gun at me?"
"What if I don't?" Liu Yuan, thinking himself superior in numbers, decided to give these upstarts a lesson.
"Irrational, then? Resorting to blades and guns first?" The platoon leader asked while nodding.
"Blades and guns are reason, aren't they?" Liu Yuan raised an eyebrow.
