Chapter 73: Part-By-Part

Their meal was interrupted by the arrival of someone new. It was a warrior - he was dressed as a noble, carrying a sword, and had a proud disposition on his face. He came and stood near Wuyi without speaking.

Wuyi looked at Yun Ming and spoke in a very weak voice, as if he was having a hard time uttering every single word, "You can sit and eat with us."

Yun Ming nodded and sat down. One more whole chicken was ordered. They all ate quietly.

After the meal, Tumu paid for all three of them, handing over five copper liangs to the server. He got up to leave, and the boy followed suit, with the warrior walking quietly behind him.

As they walked through the bustling streets, in the chaos that had enveloped the town, no one paid much attention to Tumu or the child, but many heads turned towards the warrior.
