Meanwhile, the disciples and the elders were observing from a distance.

Ding Ahfei was a hooligan with some dubious connections with the local County Captain. On a typical day, he would do things like "taking advantage of a farmer's wife when her husband is not around, and if caught, he would counter-accuse the wife of seducing him."
He grew bolder with each act. This time, after threatening a young girl, he inexplicably found himself apprehended.
Ding Ahfei was not yet at the level to know about Divine Wood Hall, so he mentioned the "County Captain's" name and boasted, "The County Captain is my brother-in-law," but no one paid him any attention...
This was when Ding Ahfei started to panic.
At this moment, he wanted to plead for mercy but saw that the group behind him merely pointed their crossbows at him. If he stopped moving, the arrows would fly.
"Brother, have mercy on me.
I will give you money..."
Ding Ahfei kept shouting as he walked forward.
