A restful night.
Carson Flores finished breakfast and stepped out of his room when he encountered Qing Ling. He casually asked, "Good morning, Qing Ling, where's senior sister?"
"She went over to the Dark Iron Mine."
Carson's steps halted abruptly, and he opened his eyes wide in surprise, "Who did she go with?"
Qing Ling replied, "She went alone."
Carson came back to his senses, immediately feeling some worry, "She didn't bring anyone with her?"
Qing Ling answered, "The Peak Master said if she can't win the fight, bringing others would be useless. If the other party has ulterior motives, having more people might actually make it easier for things to go wrong. She's going to scout the situation first and then decide what to do."
Carson frowned. Running this city could be both easy and tough, easy because one could just delegate tasks, but tough because one needs to risk one's life in any trouble that arises.
