"Furthermore, if you wish to learn more about the swamp, feel free to ask us."
The elder smiled as he spoke.
"Among those who know this swamp best, though we natives dare not claim to be the foremost,

The elder spoke with straightforwardness.
Returning Mu Yang was a favor Xu Zimei extended,
but he wouldn't help Mu Yang for no reason, a simple guess reveals this.
Xu Zimei must be interested in the Death Swamp.
The difference is, unlike others, Xu Zimei doesn't resort to violent measures.
Therefore, the elder holds goodwill towards Xu Zimei.
It's rare indeed for someone to escort them home without using force.
Upon hearing the elder's invitation, Xu Zimei originally didn't intend to stay.
But perhaps there would be new clues.
He nodded and said, "Then I'll take you up on your offer."
"What about my mother?" Mu Yang asked, worriedly looking at the elder.
"Is she alright?"
"Let's go check together," the elder replied.
