When Summer Acquiring Bird returned to Yifen Hall, it was already packed inside and out, not just to inquire about the whereabouts of their own families, but also dragging along friends and relatives as if they were ready to smash up Yifen Hall if they did not get satisfactory answers.
However, Yifen Hall had only promised to help to their best ability — no one had guaranteed the safe return of their loved ones. Seeing only two women present at Yifen Hall, the crowd grew even more unruly. The uproar attracted many onlookers, making Yifen Hall a bustling, "lively" place. Fortunately, before Summer Acquiring Bird left Yifen Hall to assist Lin Suqing in capturing the witch eagle, he had moved the unconscious Old Mother Bai and the little boy to the backyard, used some calming incense on them, and separated them from the noise at the front hall with just a curtain.
