"Did you run into the Greenwater Beggar? Are you hurt? Did you catch his affliction? What’s your condition now? Where are you? I’m about to call Kang Zhenchang; he must have a way to treat it!"
Teacher Song’s words came out in a rush, not very clearly articulated. Li Banfeng quickly soothed him, "Breathe deeply and calm yourself. I’m alright; nothing happened."
"Don't fret over me. My health has been quite robust for a considerable time," Teacher Song took a moment to regain his breath, his tone returning to normal. "Where are you now? Can I come meet you? Rest assured, no one can eavesdrop on this call."
"At ten o'clock, pick a suitable spot and give me a call. Ensure no one notices me, and then I shall come to meet you."
Li Banfeng proceeded to the Qingzhou Road Garden Community, a place once inhabited by a Nightmare Cultivator whose Ghost Servant overuse led to a string of murders.
Nowadays, the majority of the few remaining residents have relocated, leaving the area surrounding the community deserted and barren.
Cui Tiq had been waiting there for a considerable duration. "Finding this place was truly difficult, even more so than last night's rendezvous point."
Li Banfeng responded, "There will be numerous Dark Star Bureau agents scouring the scene on Sui Chen Road; this location is comparatively safer."
Cui Tiq stretched his limbs, getting ready. "I am prepared and can head to Knife Ghost Ridge whenever. However, seeing as we are friends, could we discuss something? Would it be possible for you not to use your feet?"
