Seven Stars Castle was located in the western suburbs, some distance from the Inner City.
The carriage traveled onward, soon leaving the urban area behind.
"WHOA—"
As they passed a village, the carriage suddenly lurched to a halt.
Li Rushan poked his head out to see what was happening.
He saw a little girl, about eight or nine years old, standing in the middle of the road.
The girl's clothes were tattered, and her face was covered in grime.
The driver, Old Wang, got down and gestured with his hands.
The girl didn't understand what Old Wang meant; she just kept crying.
So, Old Wang could only turn back and gesture for Li Rushan to come down and take a look.
Li Rushan nodded and disembarked from the carriage.
The situation unfolding before him was a bit strange.
But as a Force Integration Martial Artist, his Perception was far sharper than an ordinary person's.
The little girl before him showed no abnormalities.
And there were no signs of an ambush in the vicinity.
