Retribution Is Here

"We'll reach Tiantang City in another hundred and seventy miles."

There was a troop of men and horses, approximately a hundred of them. All of them wore hemp gowns and high hats. One of them cried aloud while whipping his horse.

"There's no need to be so rushed then. While the dragon hide treasure map has emerged, there'll be no verdict until hundreds and thousands of lives are sacrificed."

A wizened old man spoke, "Let everyone take a break first and prepare themselves. We'll observe the situation when we enter the city later – do not feed our impulses nor step right into the battleground and attract too much attention."

"Yes, Grand Elder."

"This is spoken from experience. Reckless impulsiveness will only cause irreversible consequences."

"There's a stop right in front. We can freshen up there."

"Great!"

The troops quickened their pace, galloping forward.
