Luckily, the fan was more interested in Grace than playing matchmaker. Liam could leave that compelled hug soon enough, and the situation quickly developed further.
The two had a destination now. The stretch of land that acted as the border between regions had a messy political environment, making it perfect for criminals to hide.
As for what came next, Grace had an idea, which could be developed further only after seeing the environment first-hand.
Liam, Grace, and the fan exited the underground room, resurfacing at the base of the Frozen Peak. The area was empty, but Liam instinctively stuck out his tongue to search for any trace that the passage of cultivators might have left behind.
Some traces stood out, which wasn't surprising. Liam had spent four weeks hidden underground after all.
Yet, everything was distant and old. Nothing was deep or intense. The tracks seemed to belong to random passersby rather than investigators.
