Qin Ziwen handed his weapon to the Beaked Eagle for safekeeping, then went down to the foot of the mountain by himself.
Soon, he noticed a man carrying an axe furtively making his way toward the woods.
Seeing this, the corners of Qin Ziwen's mouth lifted. 'Just as I thought,' he mused. 'With so many people, there's bound to be someone slacking off.'
The man had just entered the woods and found a clearing to sit down in when a hand landed on his shoulder from behind.
The man jumped, scrambling to his feet. He spun around and saw Qin Ziwen standing behind him, mistaking him for a supervisor.
"I'm not slacking off! I was just coming over to see if there were any suitable trees," the man explained instinctively.
But he quickly realized something was off.
Because Qin Ziwen's aura didn't seem like that of someone from the mansion.
After scrutinizing him for a moment, he asked hesitantly, "Are you from the Urban Village?"
