Everybody lies.

Anytime Yuchun, the spear guy, appeared and did something, replace him with the Dark Child in your minds, because Yuchun was supposed to be leading the attack on Castle Wulin to the south. Also, I gonna have to give in and go back to 5-6k word chapters again, because 7k+ is too much.
