BANG! With a kick, Hu Ma burst through the main gate and rushed directly into the Manor.
With a quick glance, he saw that this was a very lively estate, brightly lit all around, with servants coming and going. On the endless banquet tables were dishes of chicken, duck, and pig legs, along with exquisite delicacies. Servants wove through the tables, offering drinks, and on the sides, Blowers puffed their cheeks, playing with great effort.
At the tables and chairs sat numerous well-dressed and elegantly groomed wealthy gentlemen and ladies. They held their wine glasses, toasting an old white-bearded gentleman at the head table. He was surrounded by charming young women, who showered him with compliments and smiles.
Hu Ma's sudden entrance carried an imposing air of murderous intent, causing the lively scene to fall silent. Everyone at the banquet turned to stare at him in surprise and suspicion.
