In just a few moments, the medicinal herbs Bai Mo requested were packed and delivered into his hands.
The clerk shared a few more details about the customer he'd likened to a Nuo opera performer, then finally asked:
"Alchemist Bai, you know this person?"
Bai Mo simply said, "An old acquaintance. It's rare to see him in the city."
"Oh." The clerk seemed to understand and saw Bai Mo out.
"If my supervisor were here, he would have definitely served you personally and taken the opportunity to ask for your guidance on the Alchemy Dao."
"Unfortunately, it's just not good timing…"
Just as they reached the entrance, the clerk suddenly fell silent, glancing hesitantly at Bai Mo.
A figure in black was standing at the entrance of the merchant guild, wearing a featureless mask with exposed fangs.
The person had a large wooden box on their back and was accompanied by a large, dazed-looking man holding a banner, his eyes vacant.
Bai Mo was also surprised when he first saw them.
