"Attacking an Official in broad daylight! You've got some nerve!"
Knowing these people had come prepared, Yan Jian didn't dare let his guard down. With a loud shout, he raised his hand and fired a Whistling Arrow into the sky, calling for reinforcements.
The City Guard Department had recently increased its patrols, and Officials were on rotating shifts even during the noon break. He just had to hold out for a short while, and more Officials from the City Guard Department would arrive.
But the Whistling Arrow had barely left his hand when, before it could detonate, it was shot out of the sky by a black-clad man in the distance. It fell to the ground with a CLATTER.
He couldn't call for reinforcements; his only option was to carve a bloody path out. Yan Jian was decisive. Igniting all the Qi Blood Power in his body, he brandished his longsword and charged back the way he had come.
