Her slender hands tightly clenched the wet cloth. A moment later, she timidly spoke again in a complex tone mixed with pleading, anxiety, and even fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Third Brother… could I not go to Spirit City?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Tang San's mind was consumed with how to counter Sword Wine's sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't hear the unusualness in Xiao Wu's words.
