The sun blazed fiercely.
Inside a side room of Li Mansion.
Yibai sat at the table opposite the old woman.
"I have yet to ask for the elderly madam's name?"
Despite not having the appearance of a demon, Yibai did not neglect the courtesies.
"My name? I've forgotten, forgotten. The family name is Li. Just call me Madam Li Lan."
The old woman answered with a smile.
"Madam is calm and collected; it seems you have experienced much in your youth."
"Not as skilled as you, sir."
"Madam..."
Yibai conversed with the old woman, waiting for news; he always beat around the bush, wanting to find out about Old Monk Dao Chan.
The old woman, sharp as a tack despite her age, realized Yibai's intentions and wisely avoided answering his queries.
Yibai, left with no choice, had to give up.
He waited for news in the room.
...
The wait lasted over an hour.
Yibai swallowed the fourth Mud Ball and was about to take the fifth when finally,
the servant boy brought back some news.
