Everyone who saw Shen Muyu along the way appeared shocked, and then hurriedly stepped aside.
Shen Muyu walked silently, his face dark and somber.
It was only after he had walked far away that these people exchanged glances, their eyes full of confusion.
"What's going on? Why has the second young master suddenly returned?"
"Yeah! Isn't he supposed to be at the Bai Family assembly right now?"
"I've just heard that evil beings have stirred up trouble, several sects including the Nong Family have already fallen. Could the second young master's return be related to this?"
"Nonsense, even if evil beings are causing trouble, what can they do? Could they dare to provoke our Shen Family?"
"In any case, it seems the second young master is quite displeased!"
While the crowd was deep in chatter, Shen Muyu already reached the Sword Tower's gates, approaching the Council Hall.
The tall doors had been tightly shut, yet as Shen Muyu came near, they silently swung open.
