"Damn those crooked merchants! A bunch of dog-eyed snobs who look down on people—I spit on them! Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river; don't bully the young for being poor. One day, I'll make them regret what they did today!"
Inside a shabby guest room, a group of disciples carrying long swords and wearing the uniforms of the Sky-Piercing Sword Sect were crammed into the narrow space.
