At dusk, the alluring scent of food once again wafted from the backyard of Hesheng Hall.
Chen Mu, clad in Jie Jia armor, ate his meal in silence and with great speed.
Both men had hearty appetites, and the spread of dishes before them was swiftly devoured.
Soon, black smoke billowed, and the bowls and utensils were left spotlessly clean.
In the corner, black smoke enveloped the wooden trash bin. A pile of bones and vegetable juice fell into it.
Jie Jia gazed at Chen Mu with a complex expression.
"What's wrong?" Chen Mu glared at Jie Jia, spreading his hands. "Isn't this very convenient?"
Jie Jia couldn't help but nod in agreement.
But still, using a Magic Artifact like this... the feeling was truly... indescribable!
Chen Mu rolled his eyes.
"The ghosts outside the city are gone now, aren't they?"
"They've dispersed." Jie Jia nodded as he took the tea cup Chen Mu handed him.
"The waterway from here to Lijiang Guard City is also safe now, right?" Chen Mu's eyes lit up.
