He had never realized someone was in the shadow of the Li clan Patriarch until now. More importantly, the figure was well hidden, and he could feel this was the application of the darkness, clearly not a normal path. But he lost interest immediately in the figure and waited for them to approach. He was very curious about what brought them over.

The convenience of having some people handle small tasks for him was far greater than not having any.
