Chapter 572: Questions and Answer?

I dashed inside as fast as I could while making sure I wasn't followed, I turned and prepared to fight back, but the gate closed shut, allowing me inside the city that was surrounded by impenetrable walls.

I looked around, making sure that nothing was awry. I'm in a new area, I have no idea what's going on, or what those things are.

I was nervous, that was certain, I was in a strange land. Without a friend or comrade, alone and not sure where to go or what to do.

Yet something kept bothering me…

Why am I acting like this, I looked at my hand and noticed that I was trembling.

'Fear? Why? Tension and stress? I didn't have that when I was fighting the Fire Lord…'

I thought some more then realized that something was very wrong right now.

I should under no circumstance feel fear, that's not in the books for me. I'm Shen Bao, not some random scared cultivator. But why can't I shake away this dumb feeling of helplessness?
