As Ka Men spoke, the guards near the entrance instantly sprang into action. Eight blade-wielding guards quickly blocked the direction of the gate. Their weapons were drawn, and a rampant killing aura surged over, waiting for just a command from Kaso to take action and capture the intruders.
Seeing this, Xin Yun and his companions slowly stopped in their tracks. It wasn't that they didn't want to leave, but that they simply couldn't. The eight guards were all Diamond-rank experts, albeit only around One Star and Two Stars, with the highest among them, the guard captain, being merely Three Stars. But even that was more than Xin Yun and the others could handle by force.
In the face of such a dire situation, Xin Yun wasn't the least bit flustered. He stopped with a smile, turned around, and gave Kaso an evaluative glance before shaking his head and saying, "What I can't stand the most are arrogant bullies like you, recruiting people into your fold without the slightest bit of finesse."
