Song Jian and his two companions followed Duo Tuo Luo to the southern gate of Fengming City. There, a large group of people was already waiting. Song Jian glanced over and estimated there were over thirty individuals, most of whom were NPC adventurers with second-tier peak and third-tier combat power. Not a single player was among them.
When Duo Tuo Luo returned with the three men, most people's gazes landed on Song Jian, their faces revealing faint, cryptic smiles.
In the crowd, a man in an elegant robe looked Song Jian over twice, showing a smile on his face. He patted Duo Tuo Luo on the shoulder and said with a laugh, "Duo Tuo Luo, I trust you to get things done. The people you've recruited are good; I am very satisfied!"
"Thank you for the compliment, young master!" Duo Tuo Luo's face showed an awkward smile, and he didn't dare glance in the direction where Song Jian was.
