Brother Sun and Huang Donglai were no strangers to wandering the martial world, so they were certainly capable of detecting they were being followed by a mob that scarcely knew any martial arts.
So, as soon as the pair entered the city, they headed for a less crowded alley.
The three followers from the Fire Lotus Sect who were tailing them from behind were just ordinary thugs, lacking intelligence, and foolishly followed Brother Sun and Huang right into the deserted alleyway.
The result was that before they had even followed them through three alleyways, at a corner... they walked right into an ambush.
At that moment, the Fire Lotus Sect follower at the front just peeked around the corner when he was faced with a puff of white powder.
In the instant darkness engulfed his sight, he almost instinctively raised his hands to cover his eyes, and as soon as he lifted his hands, he took a solid and sickening kick straight to the chest.
