Before Fang Xun could issue a dismissal, Li Shun took the initiative to excuse himself and leave.

The Lengshan Lord plant he had submitted had already been transplanted into a flowerpot.
It emitted a faint blue glow from time to time, adding an extra layer of tranquility to the already cool and quiet study.
