The sound of footsteps echoed, soon followed by a gentle knock, breaking the silence of the room.
Mr. Zhang was immersed in the joy of his daughter's awakening, and upon hearing the sound, his brows furrowed deeply, his face showing displeasure.
"Who is it?" He turned his gaze to the doorway, asking in a deep voice.
He had previously instructed the disciples in the household not to disturb him unless necessary, so someone showing such disregard for courtesy made him lose face in front of Mr. Qin.
"Reporting to the Patriarch, someone from the Evil Extermination Bureau is here, requesting an audience with Mr. Qin, saying there's an important matter to discuss." A female disciple's respectful report came from outside the door.
"Someone from the Evil Extermination Bureau?"
Qin An lifted his sword-like brows slightly, "Tell him to wait for me outside, I'll be there shortly."
