Forced Involvement

The assassins were from an opposing family of the Xu clan. Upon learning that Xu Qingqing was in the Desolate City, they planned to kill her. The Xu family dispatched a caravan to pick up Xu Qingqing, but due to the scarcity of available strong individuals, they could only attempt to deceive the opposing family first and then allow Xu Qingqing to escape during the confusion. The Grinding Iron Mercenary Group, however, was meant to be sacrificed.

Yet, the members of the Grinding Iron Mercenary Group were originally guards of the Xu family, each of them approaching the situation with a willingness to sacrifice, except for A'li, who was unaware of the full situation.

"Damn the Yan family! I will seek revenge!" A'li roared. The assassins were powerful individuals from the Yan family, which was also a major family in the Moonflower Country, possessing strength comparable to the Xu family.

"To seek revenge, you must first survive," Xu Qingqing advised.
