After much thought, Lü Zhong concluded that his only option was to gather more intelligence.
Considering his opponent would be tracking him, he figured that by backtracking through the relevant scenes, he might discover something useful and find a way to break the stalemate.
He got right to it. Pretending to be completely unaware of what was happening outside, he continued to sit cross-legged in his Quiet Chamber.
Simultaneously, he entered the Gray Mist Space and began backtracking and analyzing every time he had gone out over the past half-month.
He started his backtracking from the most recent events: selling Talismans at his stall two days ago, then going to buy daily necessities three days prior. He meticulously analyzed every scene of him leaving his home.
After several days of this, he actually made a discovery.
Through backtracking, Lü Zhong determined the exact day he had been targeted: sixty-seven days ago.
