"Get out of here!"
"This place has been booked out. Leave immediately!"
"…"
The moment the crowd of men in suits filed in, the tavern's patrons knew something was wrong.
Hearing the order to clear out, most of them obediently left.
Even the few who considered themselves capable turned pale after getting a good look at the newcomers, lowering their heads and scurrying away.
Although the tavern owner was reluctant, he had no choice but to force a smile and greet the arrivals.
"Mr. Hex, what brings you here?"
"Step aside!"
One of the men in suits blocked the tavern owner and barked in a low voice,
"We'll call you if we need you."
"Yes, yes." The owner nodded and bowed, backing away repeatedly.
"Just give the word if you need anything."
"Hex Wei." Qiann Lan glanced at the man who had just sat down not far away, then focused her voice into a tight beam toward Zhu Ju.
"His nickname is Jackal Wolf."
