"This matter is quite significant; I'll return and report to the Elders, then come back to find you."
"Alright..."
Ji Yuan gave a slight bow and, recalling something, tentatively said:
"Brother Li, can you extricate me from this matter?"
Li Changhe pondered for a moment.
"Sure, I'll do my best. If some Elders are determined to investigate, it won't be easy to hide. But don't worry; this matter surely won't harm you."
"Alright, thank you, Brother Li."
"It's nothing. Take this token of mine and wait for me at the Qingshui Tea House on All Things Island. I'll come after I'm done."
Li Changhe tossed a token to Ji Yuan and then departed on his Flying Boat.
Ji Yuan glanced at the token, put it away, and summoned the Scarlet Skies Skiff, heading directly to All Things Island.
This place was perilous, and even with Li Changhe's help concealing him, he couldn't stay long.
