Dugu Di sat high on the windowsill, listening to the sound of the guqin, gazing northwest with an indifferent expression that betrayed no emotion.

Throughout Mao County, heroes are not allowed to break the law with force."
Yan Mu gripped the handle of his sword, coldly stating, "Everyone serves their own master. Do you think you can stop me?"
