Chapter 10 Breakthrough

Li Yu wanted to understand the ins and outs of the situation, but those villagers on the other side weren't keen on giving him that opportunity.

Wielding what looked like somewhat ludicrous weapons, they quickly surrounded the longhouse where the Double Rest Sect and the others were located. Then, without heeding Tom's request to negotiate, they launched an attack on the main entrance.

However, as a tied-up old farmer was pushed out of the house, the crowd finally stopped in their tracks.

Those at the forefront looked at each other in confusion, seemingly unsure of what to do next. It appeared that whoever had masterminded the whole setup hadn't anticipated this turn of events and had thus provided no prior instructions.

At this point, Li Yu finally managed to speak up, asking, "Who among you is the leader?"

No one answered, but many villagers' gazes shifted to the old farmer being held hostage by Tom, whose mouth was gagged with a cloth by the guard of the Black Hound.
