Hei Bao and Hei Wan were already tense from the assassination attempt and were expecting another attack, and this is what they thought it was. But even after a couple of seconds, nothing happened, and that feeling faded away.

Hei Bao looked at Hei Wan with eyes filled with confusion. It was as if he was asking what had just happened. Hei Wan did not speak and simply shook her head in response, showing that she did not know either.

Lin Mu looked up at Hei Wan upon hearing her speak.

"What about that mercenary?" Lin Mu asked.

"You found the beast inciting powder on that mercenary, right? Well, we were able to find one of his companions. One of the mercenaries finally recognized him and gave us some information. Apparently, the beast inciting powder was found by him in the northern forest." Hei Wan replied.

"It was found in the forest? How is that possible?" Lin Mu further questioned.

"The mercenary who recognized him said that they were together when they found it. The vial was lying on the ground, nestled in some grass.
