Capítulo 77: Real Masterminds

As Yu Mei and her guards began to regroup and exit the now defeated black market, an unexpected sight caught her attention. Amidst the wreckage and scattered bodies, a seemingly lifeless merchant rose from the ground, silently slipping away into the shadows. Yu Mei's keen instincts immediately picked up on the subtle movements, recognizing the act of a skilled practitioner feigning death.

Zenki's wise teachings echoed in her mind, reminding her of the importance of strategic patience. Rather than hastily disposing of the fallen adversaries, Yu Mei chose to let the merchant believe he had evaded detection. She understood that by allowing him to escape, they could follow his trail to potentially uncover greater secrets and unravel the hidden network behind the black market's operations.
