"Am I? Am I all right? Do I look like I'm all right to you?" barked the city lord, suddenly acquiring a strength that came from an unknown source as he leapt up, slapping the soldier's head, again and again.

Meanwhile, Ling Chuxi's group of three had already left the city and were rushing onwards, whipping the horses to go faster as they went.
