The next morning at dawn.
Duge, accompanied by his junior brothers and sisters and the captives from the previous night, stood at the door of Li Zheng's house in the village below the mountain, with a smile on his face, introduced himself, "I am Wang Chong, the new Sect Leader of Seven Star Gate, pleased to meet Li Zheng."
Behind him, a large crowd of curious villagers pointed and gossiped about the shiny bald heads.
For no other reason!
The cultivators from Sky Mist Valley were only wearing white undergarments, and on their backs, Duge had painted the two black characters for "Sky Mist" with a brush.
Beneath the characters, a small serial number was also inscribed.
Their feet were tied together with rope, each one of them looking downcast and despondent, much like prisoners.
Li Zheng, blurry-eyed with sleep, opened the door and was startled into full alertness by the sight, hastily clasping his hands in a salute, "I have the honor to meet True Man Wang."
