Huo Yao was unsure if the dark silhouette had slipped into the underground palace using the archaeological team as a cover or if he was already inside.
However, the man was undoubtedly well-versed in geomancy and formations.
Huo Yao gathered her thoughts, looked out the glass window, and veered her eyes. She looked at Shangguan Tong and said, "Someone leaked the news that the jade was inside the underground palace."
At that time, she had asked Cloud Realm to investigate the matter. Unexpectedly, they received definitive intel about the jade the next day. It felt as though people already knew she needed intel about the jade.
When she took the jade from the underground palace, in hindsight, things went so smoothly that it felt very unusual.
Since it was abnormal, there must be more to this.
"Aunt Tong, someone has their eyes on us," Huo Yao said.
Her voice was very soft. Inside the glass room, the atmosphere felt exceptionally quiet.
