There was a strange silence inside the tent.
It was the kind of silence that made people instinctively look around, unsure of what would happen next.
Sword Maiden's second disciple immediately snapped her head toward her master. For a brief moment she was worried that Sword Maiden might explode in anger.
But when she looked closely, Sword Maiden's face still appeared calm.
Her posture was straight, her eyes were steady, and her breathing was slow. Anyone unfamiliar with her might have thought nothing was wrong.
Then the second disciple noticed Sword Maiden's arms.
They were crossed over her chest, and the knuckles of her right hand had turned completely white from how tightly she was clenching her fist.
The disciple's heart skipped.
'She is angry!' she thought in alarm.
Her mind immediately began searching for a way to calm the situation before it turned into something worse.
