Shen Bai asked, "Elder Mu, do you have any intelligence on the Dark Hall?"
He was the type of person who had to get rid of a problem by its roots.
He wouldn't be able to sleep soundly otherwise.
Previously, he'd been occupied with the Upper Evil Sect, and then the provincial celebration, so Shen Bai hadn't gotten around to dealing with it.
Elder Mu frowned. "That's what's so strange. The Dark Hall may be relentless, but they aren't fools. Once they learned your identity, there's no way they would have continued the pursuit."
In the Jianghu, many things are just a front.
Take the Dark Hall's "relentlessness," for instance. That's just to build their reputation. They wouldn't actually take it to such an extreme.
Especially after learning Shen Bai's identity, there's no way they'd continue to hunt him.
Shen Bai stroked his chin. "If that's the case, then there's only one possibility. Someone renewed the bounty on me."
