How could Lord Da Gu handle eight ninjas alone? Just as he narrowly avoided a wave of shuriken, someone from behind stabbed him in the shoulder.
It's over!
Lord Da Gu thought to himself, he feared there was no escape!
The sound of arrows whistling through the air followed, distinct from the shuriken used by the ninjas—it was the arrows favored by people from Zhongyuan.
Lord Da Gu quickly looked up to see several guards charging in, breaking into the encirclement to protect him.
"Lord Da Gu, are you alright?" the leading guard asked.
For a moment, Lord Da Gu's eyes felt a little wet. Was he hallucinating? Was he still alive? Was he saved?
"I'm fine, I can hold on," he replied.
The guard stopped talking to him and focused on dealing with the enemy.
