Before this, Gan Yuan had received a message. He had even been cautious enough to activate another Dao Formation inside Gan Heavenly Residence!
Silver Dust had not managed to slip into the small Dao Formation, so he could not hear what was said. It left him rather annoyed.
After Silver Dust told Li Tianming, Li Tianming could only smile. "It's fine. We don't need to concern ourselves with anything else. Let's just take care of what matters to us."
Only then did Silver Dust return to watching Gan Yuan closely, though he could not shake the feeling that whatever he had missed because of the small Dao Formation might prove useful.
Before long, Gan Yuan emerged from Gan Heavenly Residence. Frowning slightly, he swept a stern glance left and right, then strode off.
Meanwhile, Li Tianming slowly appeared on an empty street corner. He headed toward the road Gan Yuan was taking, walking as though nothing were out of the ordinary.
From a distance, Gan Yuan spotted Li Tianming's figure, shrouded in the violet mist of the Violet Bramble Mask. His steps seemed to falter for an instant.
But he quickly recovered and walked toward Li Tianming as though nothing had happened.
Then, just as they were about to brush shoulders and pass each other, both stopped at the same time.
Neither turned around at first.
"Something you need?" Gan Yuan asked flatly.
Li Tianming took two steps back, cupped his fists, and bowed. "Sir, an elder of my family introduced me to you. I came here hoping to make a deal. Would you have a moment to talk?"
"A deal with me? Who's your contact? To be frank, I have other matters to attend to. If your contact doesn't carry enough weight, I can't be bothered with your business."
