189 Leaving

The men of the Jin family were trembling with fear. They didn’t dare to object to Shi Mu’s order. They were so desperate to get out of the hall that they were cursing their parents for bringing them into this world with only two legs; they struggled with each other as they tried to get out of the hall at the earliest. Even the Master of the Jin family wasn’t an exception; he picked-up the dead body of the Ninth Master, and exited the hall.

The Elder lent his support to the Master of the Jin family. Then, he too left the hall. After that, he arrived in the middle of the courtyard. He looked in the direction of the hall with an ugly expression on his face. A terrified look flashed across his eyes.

The other members of the Jin family noticed that the Elder and the Master of the Jin hadn’t yet departed the vicinity. They looked at each other in dismay. But, they had no alternative but to wait outside.

Shi Mu sat alone in the hall. He closed his eyes to rest.
