Her husband's words rang true for Ms. Lan.
"Yeah... He also seems strong, doesn't he?" Ms. Lan said before subtly releasing a faint probe of her spirit sense.
She let it approach Lin Mu without making direct contact, avoiding any offense.
Of course, Lin Mu noticed but chose not to react.
'Hmm... Dao Treading Realm and Dao Shell Realm... they're stronger than most here,' he assessed silently.
So far, the people he had encountered in the streets were mostly at the Core Condensation or Nascent Soul Realm. The fact that these two were beyond that meant they were quite capable.
It also made sense—an eatery in a place like this would undoubtedly attract trouble, and only those with strength could protect what they built.
Lin Mu leaned back, allowing himself to soak in the warmth of the modest establishment, realizing that even in the harshest of places, there were pockets of resilience and comfort.
