Shi Mu was left speechless, his interest clearly piqued.
Zhong Yao handed Shi Mu a letter from Wan Guangcai, saying, "This is a letter from our Second Manor Master to you. He probably hopes that you will join the New City Sect as well. Your relationship with the Second Manor Master is good, so you should trust his words."
Shi Mu quickly opened the letter and read it carefully. He and the Second Manor Master, Wan Guangcai, had some rapport, even a bond formed through life and death, which was far better than his relationship with Zhong Yao. The more Shi Mu read, the more excited he became.
"We mean you no harm. Besides the New City Sect Leader, me, and our Second Manor Master, no one else knows about this. Betraying you would bring us no benefits, and the New City Sect would never do such a thing, we still believe in justice." Zhong Yao said.
Shi Mu smiled and said, "I'm beginning to be intrigued."
