Familiar screams were mixed with the neighing of horses.
“Oh no!” the Tibetan soldiers exclaid in shock, “The people we have left to guard our carriage have been attacked!”
“The assailants are still in the vicinity!”
Clang!
Bikna drew her enchanted sword and roared, “Warriors, co with !”
Their expedition team dashed out from Baysema’s courtyard to the streets, and a bone-chilling sight appeared before their eyes…
