Farewell, Oh King of the Forest!

Within the edge of the forest stood two figures clad in black. Neither moved as both kept a keen eye on the five men who were slowly making their way back to the city holding the storage stones that contained the many corpses.

Each step was slow as a downtrodden expression was apparent on all five faces, and a grim atmosphere surrounded them.

Hui Yue’s eyes were filled with killing intent as he looked at these five men. They had been behind the matter with Sun, trying to sell her for the sake of keeping their own harvest to themselves. Although Hui Yue somewhat understood their sentiment, he refused to accept the choice they had made.

“Why didn’t you kill them?” Deng Wu’s voice cut straight through the eerie silence left behind within the forest as the bloody battle had ended. The black-haired man was easily capable of distinguishing the killing intent within his good friend’s eyes.
