The entrance to the Cave Mansion District at the Cyan Valley Marketplace.
He Luyuan stood vigilantly there, watching the crowd going in and out with anxiety.
The district is protected by the marketplace's grand array, allowing access only through this entrance, and he had been guarding here for a full month now, aiming to prevent Lu Yan from sneaking away when he wasn't paying attention.
With the agreed date approaching, He Luyuan's heart grew more restless.
He realized that he had exposed too much in a moment of urgency that day, but it was a desperate action.
That important figure had issued a death order—Lu Yan must be brought over.
The thought of facing the wrath of that figure if he messed up caused He Luyuan's heart to tremble.
He even began to regret getting involved with that figure at all.
This task promised great benefits if successful, but if failed, he would pay a tragic price.
For now, he could only hope that Lu Yan hadn't noticed anything unusual.
