Alex roamed the city for a few more hours before returning back to the caravan. The woman in red let him enter without questioning anything and she herself stayed outside.

"Oh, Brother Yu Ming, you're back. How was the city? Was it good?" Ying Wu asked as soon as he returned. 

"It was okay; it couldn't compare to the Cardinal City, however, "he said. 

"I doubt any city can compare to the Cardinal City," Ying Wu said.

Alex spoke for a bit and went to his corner before taking out a talisman. He was about to read it when it was suddenly ripped away from his hands and fell into the hands of the woman in red. 

She quickly checked the talisman and returned it back.

"What was that?" he thought, but the woman would never say anything. 'Does she still think I'm a criminal and will harm the people in this caravan?' he wondered.
