After speaking with Ming Yue about the upcoming journey to the central region and the engagement between Feng Yuxin and Yun Tianhai, Sect Leader Feng Tianlong seemed deep in thought.
He left Ming Yue's quarters and headed through the main halls of the Rising Sun Palace.
Xuan, who had overheard the conversation while hidden, watched as Sect Leader Feng Tianlong continued toward a secluded path behind the palace.
Xuan noticed the path led toward an area few dared to enter—the forbidden area.
Xuan said :"Why is he going there now? What secrets could he be hiding?"
staying in the shadows as he followed Sect Leader Feng Tianlong from a distance.
They soon reached the outskirts of the forbidden area, a section of the sect grounds covered in a strange mist. Tall, dark trees loomed on either side of the narrow path, and an eerie silence hung in the air.
Sect Leader Feng Tianlong paused briefly, as if considering something, then proceeded forward, disappearing into the mist.
Xuan thought to himself said: "I've never seen him enter this place before. What could be in there?"
Without hesitation, Xuan stepped forward, his footsteps soundless as he ventured into the forbidden area, trailing Sect Leader Feng Tianlong deeper into the shadows.
Inside the forbidden area, Xuan felt the atmosphere grow heavier. Ancient symbols were carved into rocks and trees, glowing faintly, marking the path. The air buzzed with a strange energy that made his skin tingle.
Xuan focused on issue and said:"This isn't just any place. It's protected by powerful formations. Sect Leader Feng Tianlong wouldn't come here without a purpose."
Moving silently, he continued to follow, watching as Sect Leader Feng Tianlong approached a massive stone door hidden within a thicket of ancient trees.
Sect Leader Feng Tianlong stopped, muttering a few words under his breath, and placed his hand on the stone door. A burst of light shone from his palm, and the door responded, slowly creaking open to reveal a dark, hidden chamber.
As the stone door opened, Xuan caught a glimpse of the chamber beyond—a vast room filled with ancient relics, scrolls, and a faint blue light that pulsed at its center.
Sect Leader Feng Tianlong stepped inside, unaware that Xuan was right behind him, still hidden by the mask's power.
Xuan whispered to himself :"This must be one of the sect's deepest secrets… What could he be hiding in here?
With careful, measured steps, Xuan followed Sect Leader Feng Tianlong into the chamber, curiosity and caution blending as he prepared to uncover the hidden mysteries within.
