He Mulong was leisurely fishing on Dragon Island every day.
He initially thought that it wouldn't be long before Mu Bingxin would obediently yield and seek him out.
Yet after waiting for three days, there was no sign of movement.
He couldn't help but find it strange, so he summoned Liu Sheng and said, "Disciple, go and inquire if Mu Bingxin has made any recent moves."
Liu Sheng accepted the order and left, but returned swiftly on a tunneling light. After landing, he reported, "Master, something is amiss. It's heard that Elder Mu has repelled several Demon Dao Cultivators recently, and after visiting several Great Clans within the Inner Sea this morning, she returned to the Peng Yuan Sect."
He Mulong frowned inwardly; Mu Bingxin's resistance and evasion were anticipated, yet her indifference was somewhat unusual—almost as if she had gained some backing.
