Wu Guan snorted angrily. "What good does it do to tell me this? I don't understand, and frankly, I don't care to understand! I know my duty is to guard this place. Without our Lord's orders, no one enters!"
"I've already granted you special treatment by allowing you to wait in the pass. If you're unwilling, then so be it!"
Lord Yang was on the verge of erupting in fury.
Prefect Liu kept his head down, standing silently behind Lord Yang, too afraid to speak.
The animosity from Shao Yunduan's men was so palpable that Prefect Liu dared not provoke them…
In the end, Lord Yang had no choice but to comply with Wu Guan's orders. Everyone was lodged in a courtyard, tightly guarded by soldiers who forbade anyone from leaving.
