Fang Yuan found an empty seat among the crowd and lowered himself into it.
He had already made his request to sell one Hollow Spirit Pill.
Since such pills were rare and hardly appeared for sale, the staff had asked him to wait while they located an alchemy expert to verify its authenticity.
Waiting suited him fine.
He leaned back casually, eye scanning the platform until a movement from the corner caught his attention.
It was the girl from earlier walking through the hall with calm steps, her presence drawing subtle attention.
Fang Yuan stiffened slightly.
No way… Is she following me?
Did I stand out too much?
Was just walking suspicious?
Before he could think deeper, he noticed something else.
The same girl was suddenly surrounded by attendants and being politely escorted up the stairs.
Her destination was obvious.
So she was not here for him specifically.
Probably.
