An Appointment

Shangguan Ru insisted on catching the traitor by herself. After two had been killed, she only had a total of ten subordinates left. She needed to know exactly who was responsible for this. Was it due to Slave Huan's ineffectiveness, or did one of her men do it?

She had not come to doubt Master Yu. She only wished to root out the traitor with her best friend.

"Yes?" Shangguan Yushi's answered, voice wavering. He went out of the room, turning and closing the door behind him. "Who is it?"

When Gu Shenwei and Shangguan Ru had entered the house, they had deliberately not hidden their tracks. Soon enough, patrolling machetemen discovered them. Tuo Nengya ran over immediately. "What happened?"

"There's a hidden traitor in the house. He has lost a hand and sealed all the exits, until..." Gu Shenwei rushed to give orders. He had to ensure that the man in Master Yu's house would not escape. But the words died on his lips when Wildhorse himself appeared.
