81. Escape and Rescue
Le Jiang's footsteps echoed again after a short while. He returned to the room, tossing a small wooden box to Old Master Liang, his face stormy. "I have ordered those four individuals to be dealt with. Here's your item; I will arrange for someone to escort you to the Nanzhao Capital after this." Old Master Liang opened the box to check, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Excellent. In that case, let's not waste any time. Where are my steward and guard?"
Le Jiang scoffed. "Your steward can't even walk because his legs are shaking, and your guard is even more useless. He fell off the cliff. People from the Central Plains are truly sacks of pus!"
"You!" Old Master Liang reined in his anger and said, "Fine, hurry up and take me to Nanzhao."
"Very well," Le Jiang nodded. "Rest for a while; we will set off soon."
