It was now nighttime, and Lin Mu was back at the villa after a day of shopping and exploring the city. He had visited several herb shops, stocking up on new herbs he hadn't seen before, along with others that could prove useful.
He had wanted to visit more shops, but it was already getting late, so he decided to return.
Monk Hushu was sitting in the main hall, drinking tea, while Little Shrubby was also present, in charge of making the tea.
"Daoist Chu hasn't returned?" Lin Mu asked.
"He's still out," Little Shrubby replied.
"How about Meng Bai?" Lin Mu asked next.
"He returned all tired earlier. He already ate and is cultivating," Little Shrubby informed him.
Sigh.
"Guess the trio gave him trouble again," Lin Mu muttered. 'At least I didn't hear any new rumors in the city or hear about an uproar, so it should still be fine,' he thought to himself.
"They didn't cause much trouble today," Little Shrubby replied. "They went to some island nearby and fished more."
