Gratitude is appreciated, but Gui Yutang still looked at Hou Yuxiao with eyes full of wariness. He hadn't forgotten that the man before him could very well be a member of the Qinglong Association, which was rumored to collude with demons!
"Leader Gui, is this about opening the East City Gate to let the Mansion Army into the city?"
Hou Yuxiao, sensing that Ding Peng in his grasp was about to speak again, immediately tightened his grip and asked Gui Yutang in a low voice. Seeing the other's wary gaze, he didn't take it to heart and just shook his head lightly, "Leader Gui, the Prefectural City is no safe haven; entering it is but a path to death. Mr. Hou can show you a clear way out, what do you say?"
Gui Yutang's brow furrowed. The Prefectural City was a fortress at present; how could entering it be a path to death? Yet he didn't dare to contradict Hou Yuxiao, so he could only inquire, "Please enlighten me."
