When the exchange meet ended, Lü Zhong took his leave.
After taking a few steps, he casually cast a Malice Detection Magic Skill, but there was no response.
Apparently, the cliché scenario of being tracked down and robbed of his treasures didn't happen to him.
This was to be expected. Leng Cui was a prominent figure in Yongling City. The cultivators she invited to the exchange meet were not just any riff-raff, so there was no chance for petty thieves to sneak in.
Walking through the curtain of rain, Lü Zhong noticed it was falling harder and harder.
It had already been a downpour when he arrived, but now it was as if a great river were being poured from the sky.
If he hadn't activated his Water Pattern Shield, he would have been drenched to the bone.
...
He soon returned to the West River Courtyard.
Thanks to the White Cloud Array, the courtyard remained dry, unlike the dampness outside.
