Under the moonlit night, the streets of Jiangshui County Town were silent and quiet, tea houses, taverns, pawnshops, workshops all without a whisper, making them seem especially eerie in the darkness.
Clip-clop, clip-clop, clip-clop...
Yibai followed the Officer, walking along the road.
The Officer was leading a high-headed horse that trod along the road, making a clip-clop sound.
Yibai twisted his serpent body, moving swiftly, as he glanced at the high-headed horse.
He hadn't figured it out yet.
Why had they asked for him, a Royal Serpent, and brought a horse too, something he couldn't even sit on?
Yibai didn't understand.
But what baffled him even more was why the Door God didn't stop this Officer from entering the Huang Family and coming before him.
"Officer Sir,"
Yibai spoke in human language, wanting to ask.
"No need for courtesy, Dragon Seed; if you have questions, feel free to ask,"
the Officer said without stopping or turning back.
