Lu Ming had a good talent, a keen insight, and was diligent. At just twenty-six, he had already reached the seventh level of Celestial Master and was skilled in tracking.
He bowed slightly and said, "I have met Miss Sang once before. As for me, I am just a casual practitioner. Facing the Huang Family, I felt somewhat lacking in confidence and had to accommodate them a bit. That day when we caught the Fox Demon, I must have embarrassed Miss Sang."
As soon as he entered, Sang Qingxiao recognized him. She smiled at his straightforwardness; there was nothing to be embarrassed about. Life was tough, and being adaptable wasn't a bad thing as long as one didn't make major mistakes.
Miss Sang's words were indeed true.
"Hmph! I think you are overthinking things! Isn't it better to be more carefree?"
The last person was a tall man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, dressed in a loose blue robe that hung freely. He casually slung a large sword across his back, looking like a character straight out of a television drama.
He exchanged words with Lu Ming, who didn’t seem bothered at all. "I envy your demeanor but cannot emulate it."
"Hmph! How pretentious."
Yong Huai then introduced, "This is Qiu Zizai, also a casual practitioner at the third level of Spirit Master. He will surpass me soon. His personality is free-spirited; he hates constraints, so he spends most of his time on fieldwork. I happened to run into him while on a mission and brought him back."
Qiu Zizai chimed in, "Yong Huai mentioned that someone remarkable has emerged from Jingjing City. Naturally, I wanted to meet you. Even before entering the capital, your reputation preceded you. I must say, the Pang Family truly deserved their downfall."
In the past, I thought the Caution Tablet outside the city was meaningless—a warning for those who insulted Demon Catchers: death! I never realized there was such a good rule.
Yong Huai worried he might stir trouble with the Caution Tablet and quickly interjected, "Don't act recklessly; Miss Sang only acted because she was confident."
Qiu Zizai frowned and replied, "Why do you oppose me at every turn?"
"If you could set up a large talisman array yourself, I wouldn't stop you."
As Yong Huai spoke, he smiled at Sang Qingxiao. "Since news of the Pang Family incident spread, I've clearly noticed that people respect us Demon Catchers much more now—especially within Jingjing City. We owe that to Miss Sang."
Sang Qingxiao suggested, "Lord Yong, if you have some spare time, perhaps you could send someone to restore the Caution Tablet? The writing on it has become quite faded."
Miss Sang's reminder was thoughtful.
Sang Qingxiao gestured for everyone not to stand around and said, "Let's find some seats first; I'll go get you all something to eat."
The Small Tavern was doing great business; Miss Sang was busy and didn't mind us. We might as well buy some Zongzi to take home.
It was all takeout anyway; it just looked crowded but wasn't too hectic. Misha could handle it alone, and besides, there weren't many Zongzi left. I’m treating today; leaving now would be disrespectful.
Upon hearing this, Qiu Zizai sat down first and said to Yong Huai, "You can leave if you want; I'm staying. After traveling with you for days, I'm starving."
After finishing with Yong Huai, he turned to Sang Qingxiao and said, "Miss Sang, people are raving about your Buddha Jumps Over the Wall dish. While I can't afford the ten taels of gold version, would it be possible for me to buy a bowl of the one for one tael of silver? Of course, if it's inconvenient, that's fine."
