"You people from beyond the Great Wilderness, even if I told you my name, you wouldn't recognize it." The elder spoke indifferently, obviously not holding Li Tianzong and Li Xiaoran in high regard.
Li Tianzong was slightly taken aback, this familiar address made him think of something.
"Senior, where is this place?"
Li Hao asked, having already determined that the towering wild trees around them were not where they had entered the Mo River previously.
"This is the source of the Mo River."
The elder said calmly, "The place you entered before was just an opening to the Mo River. As I said, I wanted you to take me back, naturally I would lead you to the source. This place is closer to my hometown..."
As he spoke, he looked toward a certain direction in the distance, a hint of nostalgia and expectation in his eyes, as well as a faint sense of urgency.
Li Xiaoran's expression changed slightly, and he looked at Li Hao, saying, "Did you promise him something?"
