"They're here, they're here..."
Yujing City trembled.
Everyone knew Master Shou acted with reckless abandon, with no regard for law or order.
Everyone had heard his wild declaration upon first appearing, that he would slaughter the city and storm the mountain. Now that he had slain Dao Xuanji, was he truly going to unleash a massacre within the city?

"What,
