Guo Ziyu promised Yue Jinghua that he would notify her and her companions when the next Five Saints Mountain City marketplace occurs.
Only then did the two of them leave the Xuan Beast Store contentedly, following the directions Guo Ziyu had given earlier, and headed towards "Helen Tavern," where most of the town's mercenaries gather.
Helen Tavern is the largest tavern in town, located in the southeast of the town's central area.
After walking about a few kilometers, what came into view were five or six old-fashioned rowhouses built with Five Saints Pine.
As dusk approached, there weren't many patrons, and the people inside the tavern were preparing for the night ahead.
Outside the rowhouses, coated with specially made wax paint in the color of jasmine, atop the roof sat a row of stone chimneys puffing circles of white smoke, like a leisurely old man.
Several carts loaded with oak barrels and kegs were parked outside the tavern.
