In the Grey Clothes Tower, Chen Ku couldn't help but look back the moment that person spoke.
The newcomer also wore a conical hat, obscuring their appearance and age. Judging only by their voice and their two visible hands, Chen Ku guessed they were unlikely to be over forty years old.
The man's fingers were not rough and lacked wrinkles or spots. They were slender, and his nails were neatly trimmed.
Could this person... be the Peace Path Incense Master that the Transformation Diagram warned me about, the one who intends to issue a bounty for my capture?
Chen Ku's thoughts flashed like lightning.
To avoid revealing his identity, despite his anxiety, he glanced only once before turning his head away, pretending to continue perusing the Bounty List.
Indeed, the other person did not notice Chen Ku.
After all, Chen Ku was not only wearing a conical hat, but his stature and features had also completely transformed into those of Du Xiaodao.
