That night.
Fengnan City, a group of buildings known as the Water Cloud Guild Hall.
From the outside, it looked like any normal guild hall with its tall white walls, cast iron gates, nestled among green trees and having a majestic roof. A few people, garbed like security personnel, were stationed at the entrance.
In the veil of the night, the red and blue embers of lit cigarettes flashed intermittently.
If one were to look beyond the tall walls from the bird's eye view, they would realize that the Water Cloud Guild Hall was not ordinary. Its layout was lax on the outside yet strict within, unlike any regular guild hall.
Inside the building complex, streetlights cast their warm yellow glow evenly across the ground at regular intervals. Men dressed in snug black uniforms patrolled back and forth, their eyes cold and alert, immediately investigating any trace of movement in the darkness.
