Lu Zhongxun and his two companions cupped their hands, indicating they understood what to do. Now all they needed to do was wait for the right moment.
"Pavilion Master, Hall Master," reported a guard who had just entered, "the Clan Leader of the Li Shi Clan has come to see you and is asking for you by name."
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhongxun and the others immediately stood up.
"Pavilion Master, before we picked you up, the Li Shi Clan's network in the Xiongman Dynasty was infiltrated by a traitor who had been bribed, leading to a complete defeat by the Xiongman Dynasty."
"Our Pill Pavilion also had fair trade dealings between the Xiongman Dynasty and the Li Shi Clan," Lu Zhongxun speculated openly, suggesting that some individuals, for self-preservation, had exposed the Pill Pavilion's network.
Ling Tianyu poured himself a cup of tea, gently sniffing its aroma, and said, "Zhong Xun, go and handle it."
