The battle came and went swiftly. By the time the heavy rain ceased, so had the fighting. Below the Sword Saint Palace, the sea was strewn with floating corpses, all disciples of the Sword Saint Palace. As for Ye Feng's side, although several were injured, some seriously, not one had died.
At this moment, the Hidden Guard led by Shadow had also retreated from inside the Sword Saint Palace, indicating that the battle there had concluded as well.
"Your Majesty," Shadow immediately reported with clasped hands, "I have searched as you instructed and did not find the Sword Saint Palace's treasure vault."
Long Nannan was most concerned about this and immediately stepped forward to ask, "Not finding the vault, isn't that unlikely? Such a massive Sword Saint Palace, with a heritage spanning hundreds or even a thousand years, couldn't possibly be without a treasure vault, could it?"
