"Can I have my horse back now?" King Rizhu asked. Although he did not want to make an alliance with the Dragon King, he had to accept it. He was well aware that if he did not do it, the second wife of the Khan would do it without him. Since they were allies now, he decided to make his first request as a friend.

"No,"Gu Shenwei said, shaking his head.

"Why not?" King Rizhu asked in surprise.

By then, there were only the two of them in the tent. The second wife of the Khan had left after she got what she wanted.

"As I told you before, I didn't steal your horse," insisted Gu Shenwei.

"No, you didn't, but your people did," King Rizhu said, quite upset. "I've been honest to the Dragon King since the very beginning. I wish the Dragon King would be the same to me. That horse is very important to me. I need it to win the Tournament in two days," he whined.
