Tong Cheng'er spoke a few more words to Tong Xue'an, and then she and Yinzhen went to Shumulu's place to say a few more words before preparing to leave Tantuo Temple.
No sooner had they left than Shuyuan arrived. Upon entering, she asked around, but all she found out was the group of Shumulu Shi and Niohuru Fujin.
