“Amu said he knows a shortcut to Chian, and he will take you there after you have eaten,” the old man said.
Lin Yinan looked at Yun Shiyi, who nodded slightly.
"In that case, I shall respectfully comply."
Hong Mu was overjoyed and wanted to pull Lin Yinan away, but Yun Shiyi's sword was placed in front of him at the right time, making him dare not act rashly.
