Grand Event

　　Long Zaitian and Tie Hanyi led another team to tackle those downstairs. Upon noticing the overwhelming and abnormal number of pugilistic world people in the town when they went out to investigate, they feared for the Emperor's safety. Thus, they headed back to bodyguard the Emperor. When they returned to the inn, they saw two people behaving suspiciously outside the inn, discussing something, presumably. Thanks to their experience in the pugilistic world, it wasn't difficult for them to decipher who the two outside were targeting.

　　Long Zaitian approached the two individuals to distract them, while Tie Hanyi summoned his subordinates to catch the enemy off guard. Long Zaitian suddenly belted and decided to execute a pre-emptive strike, sending one individual rolling across the ground with a punch! Tie Hanyi then raced out with their team on the first floor to jump the two enemies. Ordinary imperial court warriors weren't permitted upstairs, leaving a dozen warriors on the first floor. Owing to the gap in skill, the twelve were able to defeat the forty enemies.

　　The enemies certainly didn't appear to be a friendly bunch. There were two teams after the same target; their appearances and ages differed. They didn't actually coordinate a joint operation. One was a group of mountain bandits, and the other was a gang of some sort.

　　Long Zaitian and Tie Hanyi went on punching frenzies, making quick work of the enemies. Tie Hanyi was invincible, which didn't sit right with him. Su Xiao was able to win one-on-one fights - that broke his personal record! Su Xiao laughed as he swung his Ancient Cold sabre; he could be said to be the tiger among the sheep. It took them less than an hour to force the enemies to surrender. Also noteworthy was the imperial court's forces didn't suffer as much as a bruise. Despite that, Tie Hanyi wasn't happy they fought a fight without knowing why. Almost an hour of fighting and they had no clue who they were fighting.

　　"Who are you?! Speak or suffer!"

　　The enemy leader brashly responded, "You sons of b.i.t.c.hes, our Golden Coin Brotherhood was also on our way to Huzhou. We avoided you whenever we could in case you misunderstood! We had to spend the night in this town because it's b.l.o.o.d.y bucketing outside! Does it bother you that much?! We might not be a famous orthodox sect, but I can't think of one time we did something that left us with guilty consciences. I don't care how strong you happen to be! Is that justification for you to be tyrants?!"
