"My lord, why have so few returned?" Haidei'er asked.
Yan Mo did not speak but instead carried Haidei'er towards the inside of the castle and bellowed, "Warriors, go home to your wives. Those without a wife, find a woman immediately. In two hours, our enemy will be upon us!"
Then, he entered the castle while holding Haidei'er.
...
Two hours later, there was finally calm.
Haidei'er's pale face was colorless, and she asked with a trembling voice, "My lord, have we lost this battle?"
Yan Mo did not reply, but only nodded his head.
Haidei'er felt a deep chill in her heart, seeing only darkness ahead.
The Rock Pirates were very powerful but also extremely vulnerable; once they lost a battle, the consequences were unimaginable.
Seeing the look on Haidei'er's face, Yan Mo said, "What? Little Haidei'er, do you no longer have faith in me?"
