The sky began to pale in the east.
The three of them sat on rocks in the wilderness.
Just moments ago, they had been on the back of the wolf, a blur of speed and fury.
Now, they had arrived on the outskirts of Four Seas Camp.
The woman had given in.
She proposed an alliance with Tang Wen and his companion.
Tang Wen: "Give me a reason."
The Childlike Lolita had clearly been thinking this over for a while. "You're from outside Ganshan City, but I'm an Elder of the Thief Sect. I'm a local power here. If we work together, we both benefit. But if I don't make it back, you'll have gained a new enemy. An enemy in the shadows."
Tang Wen and General Zhao exchanged a look.
The general nodded, signaling for Tang Wen to make the decision.
"Tell me about the Thief Sect."
"The Thief Sect was once a major power in Ganshan City, but our influence waned after a conflict with the Huang Family. I can recommend you two to join us."
