As Yin Guang explained, Pei Ze began to understand the full story.
Yin Xue and her companions had been ordered to guard a resource point. Just yesterday, their tour of duty had ended. After handing things over to the Wizards who came to relieve them, they began their return journey to Red Maple City.
But on their way back, they were ambushed by the Witch Hunting Team.
The enemy force included two Fourth-Class Priests, whose strength far surpassed their own.
The Second-level Wizard leading the team sacrificed himself to hold off all the Winter Frost Priests, buying the others a chance to escape.
But even so, they still suffered heavy casualties, and Yin Xue was severely injured in the process.
By the time Yin Guang finished, Pei Ze's expression had turned grim.
"Hasn't the Witch Hunting Team always avoided us? Why would they set an ambush?"
