The atmosphere outside the room grew tense.
Shopkeeper Pang was a shrewd man. He quickly sensed that something was amiss and discreetly retreated downstairs, leaving only Bai Yuan and the old Daoist.
"You have sharp eyes, Daoist."
The old Daoist had seen the Demonic Qi on Bai Yuan with a single glance.
"Daoist, the Celestial Heart Sect has been completely wiped out by Prefect Kong of Ling Province. You don't need to search for them anymore."
This matter, with Kong Sen fanning the flames behind the scenes, was already known throughout the city. Even if the old Daoist never left his room, it wouldn't be difficult for him to learn of this news.
The old Daoist shook his head slightly. "I'm not looking for those people."
"Oh?"
Bai Yuan's expression grew interested.
"Who are you looking for, Daoist?"
"Lord Bai, have you heard of reincarnation and rebirth?"
