After the old butler left, the black cat eagerly flipped over and lay on the rock, spreading its limbs wide, its soft belly exposed to the sun, squinting comfortably.
"Meow~ Comfortable!"
The cat just stretched lazily when it suddenly sensed something, its light blue eyes gleaming.
"Hmm? So fast already?"
"Wait, there's another person, is this the General of the Sky Scale Guard?"
"The information provided by Chu Heng mentioned this woman, she seems to have a deep relationship with Chen Mo..."
The cat excitedly licked its lips, its tail standing high like a flagpole, "Meow, there's an unexpected bonus?!"
...
Squeak——
The friction of shoe soles against the soil produced a rustling sound.
Li Yuan climbed up the rugged mountain path, fatigue evident in her eyes.
Since the martial arts trial ended, she hadn't had a good rest for days, whenever she closed her eyes, the bloody image of Chen Mo's tragic form appeared before her.
