After secretly observing and confirming that the scar-faced village woman at the riverbank was persistently kowtowing in prayer, Wang Zhifan immediately took action.
First, he activated a moderate level of ice power to impact the woman's brain, instantly inducing a coma to prevent her from accidentally knocking herself to death from excessive kowtowing.
Then, he quickly dragged the now unconscious woman into the nearby bushes for concealment, erasing some path traces to avoid detection by any passersby.
Having arranged this initial step, he then activated the Guest Minister Token's ability to return to the real world. Since he had entered the previous world from within the Deceit Realm in the real world, his current return location was naturally within the Deceit Realm.
