That evening, Song Cheng was directly asked to stay at Shanhe Martial Arts Hall, sharing a table with "Iron Arm Gray Bear" Hong Juguang.
Dinner.
Song Cheng arrived at just the right time.
Shanhe Martial Arts Hall and White Camel Estate had both opened up their quotas to recruit martial artists, offering generous rewards. So... for a Form Realm warrior like him who came knocking on their door, could Shanhe Martial Arts Hall not entrust him with an important task?
Under normal circumstances, this would be absolutely impossible.
But now, these were not normal circumstances.
This was the opportune moment Song Cheng had settled on after observing the West City Gate and realizing he couldn't bypass the Government Office.
...
The dishes served were complete but not luxurious.
It was even... to some extent, just a bit better than the "belt-tightening" meals of the An Family in recent times.
