Elsewhere, Ruth Dawn sat in her room, surrounded by a crowd of Black Tiger Guards.
On the floor was Johnny Dawn, trembling and incessantly begging for mercy, "Miss, spare my life... please spare me."
Ruth Dawn looked down at him indifferently, "Johnny Dawn, your father, your grandfather, they were all servants in the Dawn Sect, the Sect has always been generous to your family."
"We provided housing and money, and there were bonuses and dividends at the end of the year."
"The houses for your family, your children's schooling, your wife's employment, as well as your parents' pensions, social security, and medical care, it's all maintained with the Dawn Sect's money."
"And now you betray the Dawn Sect? Tell me, what did the Thousand Hand Society offer you for you to betray your masters in search of glory?"
As she spoke, Ruth picked up a cup of tea and took a gentle sip.
