Idling in front of the entrance doors to the Inner Sect disciples' training hall, the Grandmistress agitatedly drummed her foot on the ground. With her hands clasped behind her back, she fidgeted with the silver bracelet around her left wrist.
"I don't believe you want a repeat of what happened the previous night." Chi Yulan threatened, glowering at the two disciples stationed on guard duty.
The two youngsters cursed their ill luck and their gazes remained fixed on the ground, understanding where exactly they were positioned in the food chain when an untamed tigress stood before them. They were unfortunate for a second time to encounter her during their guard duty.
"Grandmistress, please…" One of them pleaded, submitting to his knees as he threaded his hands together in a begging stance. "We promised we wouldn't report what happened to our Grandmaster last night, so please turn away."
