Clack, clack!
Unlike last time, there was no need for Aike to make a move before the sound of horse hooves could be heard.

Fu Qian didn't have any twisted pleasure in frightening the old masters with heart disease or anything.
But it was unavoidable, since from the start of the mission, they had put themselves in the position of hunting him down.
Since slipping away without a word was unlikely, he might as well use the situation to his advantage while minimizing delays.
