Yan Xu was stopped at the Town Exit by the Warriors of the Martial Alliance who asked him where he was trying to go.
On one end, they were worried about Yan Xu's safety since he had lots of enemies who would have wanted to kill him. On the other hand, they were also worried that Yan Xu was never going to return.
Although they were grateful to Yan Xu for protecting the town and praised him openly, but deep down, they were also somewhat distrustful. They couldn't help but wonder how they were going to explain to the General if Yan Xu escaped the village in fear of the enemies?
"If you're really interested in going out on a walk, how about I inform the General first? He can send a few guards to accompany and protect you," the Guard further stated, trying to find an excuse to stop Yan Xu while he informed the Generals.
