Returning to the living room, Chen Li called for his wife and maids.
He gave them careful instructions.
After the maids left,
"Has something happened?" Zhou Hong asked with concern.
After all, having been married for over a decade, Zhou Hong could easily read the worries etched on Chen Li's face.
But Chen Li couldn't be explicit about his concerns, for fear that his wives and concubines might accidentally let something slip. He could only vaguely say,
"Today I heard from Fellow Daoist Lin Qing about a massacre that wiped out an entire family. It made me remember that the Returning True Sect has quite a number of enemies too. With this place being a melting pot of good and bad, with many Loose Cultivators coming from all directions, we should act prudently to avoid unnecessary disasters. We must be especially careful not to reveal any secrets."
"You're right to remind us, husband. We should indeed be more careful from now on," Zhou Hong nodded gravely.
