The attendant whispered, "As you commanded, all activities have been temporarily halted to avoid drawing unwanted attention and trouble."
Xiao Chengxuan's expression relaxed.
"Good."
'He was reluctant to do so, but at a time like this, the slightest disturbance could put him in a perilous situation. Best to lay low and observe for now. It wouldn't be too late to act once the situation became clearer.'

"We're finally here!"
Ye Yunfeng's eyes shone with unconcealed excitement.
This feeling was completely different from how he'd felt when they returned to the Capital City.
