Just as expected, right after Si Shuo and Wei Ce teleported to Ji Liang's side, Nong Yan, the Clan Leader of the Tongdong Tribe, arrived with a dozen or so Beastmen. They were disguised as road-weary traders, claiming they had just completed a mission and were looking to relax.
They had searched several streets without finding the mute female, but they couldn't risk tipping off their target by grabbing someone to question.
Besides, as outsiders, they were seen as fat sheep by the local merchants, who were all watching them closely.
Just as they regrouped and shook their heads, indicating they hadn't found her, a little bean of a cub suddenly bumped into the Clan Leader and took off running.
Clan Leader Nong Yan frowned slightly. His hand instinctively went to his waist, and his expression changed. "Quick, catch him! He stole my money pouch!"
