"Who is there?!"
"What is happening!"
"Who are those three??"
"Wait! That clothing is..."
"They are targeting Lord Thirteen!"
"Protect Lord Thirteen!"
"Stop them!"
Chaos erupted among the crowd, but their reaction was already a beat too slow.
The three had already leapt from the horseback, almost simultaneously drawing their swords in mid-air, slashing towards Li Shisan.
But Li Shisan remained unmoved, just coldly watching the three men.
Thud!
At the same time, a figure from the side, belatedly but swiftly, positioned himself in front of Li Shisan, intercepting the three with a crosswise sword.
Clang!
Sword and blade collided, the interceptor forcefully resisting the combined strike of the three, his feet sinking inches into the ground.
With a muffled grunt, he swung his blade, pushing back the three while blood already spilling from the corner of his mouth.
The three landed, looking at the person with some suspicion in their hearts.
