Chapter 256: Real Power (Part 1)

The big thick door was pushed open and a team of six entered the guest house of the town government. Almost instantly, they attracted the attention of all.

The one leading the team was of medium built and had an air of slyness about him. One could tell right away that he was capable of dealing with every kind of men. He was the most common one, though, for the five walking behind him were much less "conventional".

They all arranged their hair into Taoist buns and wore loose robes with wide sleeves. Despite the thinness of the clothes, they did not seem to be affected by the coldness at all. Each man had a cloth bundle over his shoulder and wore a pair of traditional Taoist shoes of ten directions. Some of the bundles even had a hilt protruding from them.
