276 Encounter!

"Judging by the looks of it, he has already headed further inside without touching the items in the halls located at the forks."

"Thank goodness he didn't, or else we would have come in vain."

"But…"

"If we haven't been killed by those bastards who stole our tribute box from us, the thirteen of us would not have ended up in this state. Even if we couldn't compare to that person, we wouldn't need to waste so much time on these ninjas."

When they mentioned their encounter at the foot of Mount Song, half of them became filled with indignation and grief, while the other half fell silent!
