Several tamed beasts on the roof of the Association building watched the approaching figures.
Wu Heng stopped at the entrance.
Xiaoxiao's voice came to his ear. "Uncle, there are a lot of people inside. The ones near the door are the Association guards, and quite a few of them are holding heavy crossbows. The people farther inside should be merchants. They look pretty wealthy."
