Su Bei supported his slightly sore lower back, squinted, got out of bed, pushed open the window, and looked out at the ferry dock.
The river's surface was still enveloped in a persistent haze. Near the closer jetty, only a few small boats were docked, with a few fishermen using nets to deal with the river fish they had caught.
However, for some reason, the streets seemed busier today than yesterday.
He could sense at least a dozen cultivators of the Refining Void Realm alone, and from hundreds of miles around, more were continuously converging in the direction of Xiashui Pass.
After a brief moment of thought, Su Bei said, "My disciple must have wanted to meet the King of the Northern Border for a long time."
"If your master hadn't awakened, would you have agreed to his request?"
Dressed neatly, Mo Li carefully inserted the Gilt Phoenix Feather Stepping Shake into her hair. She walked behind Su Bei, her arms encircling his waist, her cheek resting against his back.
"Mhm."
