章 99: Zhu Bandits

That was when a female voice suddenly appeared behind them.

"Damn right we came here to take it back. I thank you for revealing the entrance to us."

Yu Yingyi turned around to see three people in a fighting stance, only one of them had a weapon which was a short sword. Yu Yingyi had seen the weapon multiple times before, mostly because Song Liya sometimes used it to practice.

"Who are you?!" Qing Shan asked as she quickly moved to the front with her sword raised.

"I'm pretty sure you already know who we are, after all, we're the ones who came looking for the scroll," the person with the female voice said.

Yu Yingyi was surprised the Zhu empire sent bandits, but at the same time, she wasn't.

In the novel, it was stated that the Zhu empire often sent females for assassination and stealth missions because they had more slender bodies so they were able to weave through places better. They were also more swift.
