After the auction ended, Mu Chen did not leave the City of Trade immediately. Instead, he found himself a cultivation inn and stayed put in it temporarily. Since a fight was expected, he wanted to make sure that he was in tip-top shape for it.
The exhaustion caused by the non-stop traveling needed to be eliminated as well.
In the spacious guest room…
Mu Chen was sitting with his legs crossed while Nine Nether was standing by the window. She looked out and turned her head to Mu Chen. "Someone is really following us. They were probably sent by Liu Ming."
Mu Chen nodded. "Those with the surname Liu are always up to no good."
Back in the Northern Spiritual Realm, the Lius had given him troubles, too.
After Mu Chen had just finished his sentence, Lin Jing was standing there with her hands on her waist, staring at him angrily. She waved her small fist at him. "My grandma's last name is also Liu!"
Mu Chen felt embarrassed all of a sudden.
