Chapter 39 First Appearance of the Grim Reaper _3

Yan Shi noticed that the Black Knights had already split into two small teams enveloping them from behind. He realized that despite the formidable power of Ah Dai and Yan Li, they stand little chance of survival once encircled. Pulling Ah Dai, who was ready to charge forward, Yan Shi bellowed, "Let's get out of here!" Having said that, he swiftly killed one of the Black Knights and, along with Ah Dai and Yan Li, tried to break free of the oncoming siege.

The Black Knights, however, were not inclined to let them escape. They quickly rearranged themselves, taking little time to encircle Ah Dai's group again. From somewhere behind the enemy formation, three figures lunged at Ah Dai. After losing dozens of their men, the leader of the enemy finally emerged.

The clashing of blades echoed, followed by a barrage of attacks that Ah Dai's group couldn't fend off. Although the trio who attacked them were defeated, the remaining Black Knights had managed to inflict several wounds on them.
