Luo Binghe wants to find and kill Aornis immediately, and if Shen Yuan's death was more recent, he would do so. But he's had time to ruminate on what happened, and speaking to Shen Yuan through Lan Wangji—and watching his new body grow—has settled some of the frantic animal need for revenge. His rage has not dimmed in the slightest. But he has some practice enduring it while he waits for his time.

The fact is that Luo Binghe already fought Aornis once and lost. And that was two against one, with Shen Yuan at his side. He has some idea of why—Shen Yuan lost his cultivation, and Xin Mo turned on him—but since he cannot remember, there could have been other factors. And since Lan Wangji has concealed information from him before on this matter, he cannot rashly charge into a fight without ensuring he knows everything there is to know.

Thus, he is looking for Magnus. This would be so much easier if the mansion were like Luo Binghe's palace, where all his wives and inner circle have taken his blood. How can anyone tolerate how inefficient it is to look for people?

Magnus isn't that hard to find, once Luo Binghe gets outside -- he's in Uncle D's garden with a book about early childhood development, trying to understand what Sunny needs most and what he should expect next, while also soaking up the sunnier of Uncle D's vibes from his growing melon plants.

When he senses another presence, he puts the book down and shadows his eyes from the sun with one hand. "Luo Binghe?"
