章 164: The first hint of the conspiracy

Bai Yun slowly walked back to the city. The situation here was worse than he initially thought. He needed to tell the city lord of the magnitude of the problem before he made any action.

But just as he was heading back he froze. If what he thought was true then the scope of this thing was insane. In that case, it was not too much to think that the people behind this might have placed spies in terracotta city. They might have even bribed the city lord. He didn't have enough interaction with the city lord to trust him. If the city lord was not honest, then he might be walking to his death.

Thinking of this, Bai Yun frowned as he looked around. The city guard leader and a few guards were standing around him. Bai Yun felt stupid for losing his composure and saying just how bad this was. If there was a spy in this group, then he was dead.
