Calming himself down, Ma Dong replied tentatively, "In order to find items for the auction, I went to scour the black markets where I bumped into a strange fellow, who insisted on taking me as his disciple. I felt that there was something wrong with his brains, so I told him to scram off, however, he continued to follow me. Since I couldn't defeat him, I told him that if he could obtain something for me to auction, I might consider it. Afterwards, he sent me an item. The people from those two families might have been called over by that fellow."
Tumo Assassin exchanged glances with a few elders and thought, Is this little bastard a pig? It's a miracle that he's still alive!
