Once they returned to Murong Haitang's Cave Mansion, Sikou Yao finally sighed in relief, collapsing onto a chair and a grin spread across her face, "These social occasions are so exhausting, my face is stiff from all the smiling!"
Murong Haitang agreed wholeheartedly, "You're right, I usually don't like dealing with these people either. I prefer to do as I please in my own place, whether it's cultivating or anything else. At least, it's more comfortable than being in front of others. I can do whatever I want, free and easy."
Sikou Yao nodded with a smile, then asked her, "Haitang, are there any fun places around here?"
Thinking of the trading event the next day, Murong Haitang immediately told Sikou Yao, "Just right, tomorrow our Lingxiao Sword Sect's business branch is hosting a grand trading fair in the city. I think you'll be interested."
Sikou Yao's eyes lit up, "What sort of trading fair?"
