Mei Shumo halted. Hearing the Toutuo's words, a flash of displeasure crossed his eyes. It was only the first day, and this man was already challenging his arrangements. He probably wouldn't be obedient in the future, either.
'An unstable element!'
After a moment of thought, he looked at Jieyun Tuduo and said,
"Jieyun Tuduo, I have my reasons for this. The three-day departure wasn't a random decision. We still have supplies to prepare, and they are crucial for this journey. If you disagree, we can dissolve our contract right now."
"Oh, no, I was just speaking idly."
The Toutuo let out a hearty laugh and dropped the subject.
Nearby, Lü Zhong watched the man, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
'This Toutuo is acting strangely.'
'As a Buddhist Cultivator with strength equivalent to the Nascent Soul Stage, he shouldn't have such trouble controlling his emotions. It doesn't make any sense.'
'The only logical explanations are that he's either in a hurry...'
