Master Lao sat upright at this moment, his expression calm as he watched Igor and the others enter.
"Master!" Igor's expression showed some urgency. He couldn't help it; Kadi's words had provoked him, and he wanted to resolve the misunderstanding immediately.
"You've arrived!" Master Lao looked at Igor calmly, "Are you ready to depart? I have everything prepared."
Igor was a bit taken aback; he had come here to talk with the master, but his unexpected words left Igor at a loss for what to say.
"We haven't left yet; we're still waiting for someone to arrive!" Kadi spoke up from behind, providing relief in an otherwise awkward situation.
"Someone else is coming here!" The master seemed a bit confused by this.
"Yes, a friend of ours, and someone from the City Administrative Office. They'll handle everything."
