"Why is that?"
Mo Yun looked utterly puzzled.
Since the Chaos Blade Sect was no longer a threat, why did he need to stay in the manor and cultivate in seclusion?
Lin Yanshan slowly exhaled and explained, "It's the demons. I don't know what's gotten into those demons hiding deep in the mountains and ancient forests lately, but they're starting to stir again."
After a pause, a trace of helplessness flashed through Lin Yanshan's eyes as he continued, "I'm afraid those demons might seize the chance to cause trouble while I'm away."
Mo Yun understood.
In fact, the powerful demons in the surrounding area had mostly been cowed by Lin Yanshan. He had beaten fear into them, so they didn't dare come out and cause trouble.
If Lin Yanshan stayed away too long, those demons might indeed emerge.
At the same time, Lin Yanshan continued, "But don't worry too much. I'm only leaving, not dying."
"Those demons understand the same reasoning as the Chaos Blade Sect. They won't dare go too far."
"Still, just in case, don't leave Qilin County unless you have to. Ideally, stay in the Mountain Manor and cultivate in seclusion."
Mo Yun nodded. "I will. Thank you for the warning, Village Master."
Lin Yanshan smiled. "All right, it's time for me to set off. Wait until I return. There's a surprise in store for you!"
In fact, he was making this trip for Mo Yun's sake.
Mo Yun froze at those words. "A surprise?"
"It's something good. You'll find out when the time comes. Just wait for me to return!"
"While I'm away, if you run into anything you can't resolve, go to the Main Court and find Qingxue."
"If Qingxue can't resolve it either, find Steward Wang."
"All right, see you next month!"
Without another
