Lifting his gaze, Zhou Ping'an saw the hammer soaring into midair, only now whistling down to land on the empty ground of the valley floor.
And those two men, suspected to be the Black Mountain Bandit leaders known as "Yellow-faced Tiger" Wei Ju and "Golden Jade Hoe" Zhang Ye, who were descending on ropes, had climbed back up halfway and disappeared from sight.
In the distance on the cliff, the Lin Family's Guardian House Servants, who had just engaged in combat, were bracing themselves for a bitter battle.
Yet, unexpectedly, the victor in the valley below had been decided within a few breaths.
Filled with renewed spirit, they cheered and counter-attacked.
This time, it was the enemy who desperately fled.
Zhou Ping'an and his companion didn't pursue.
After eliminating Deng Yuanhua and Gao Jin, Baicao Hall no longer posed any threat.
They could easily take it over after returning to the city.
But the spoils of war on the battlefield could not be ignored.
