After adapting to the Five Viscera Transformation twice, Chen Mu immediately left the courtyard.
It was now deep into the night, the pitter-patter of the rain had ceased at an unknown time, replaced by an obscure mist that enveloped the heavens and the earth, almost to the point where one couldn't see one's own fingers when extended.
The late hour combined with the dense fog meant that even for a martial artist, visibility was greatly reduced. However, within the county government, there were many hazy lights still, and from time to time, sounds of people and horses moving could be heard, indicating that despite the late hour during the tidal disaster, the county government was still bustling with activity.
Chen Mu didn't pay too much attention and, after discerning the direction, headed towards the smelting platform.
