Due to the heavy rain, the crowd was far lower, and the earlier irritated young man was nowhere to be seen. The rain was still heavily falling but the burly guard still kept check on whoever entered and went out.
He didn't want anyone without permission to enter. Like an unauthorized Evolution Stage cultivator from the other two clans.
There was a history of such things happening, so the clan had to be cautious. But that was troublesome for Han Li since he didn't want others to see his sword yet.
That could be associated with the merchant who went missing since he had been attempting to sell it in the town. Or if someone had seen Kevin with the sword, that would bring even more trouble.
So walking through the Gateway without showing the sword took some time, but his own clothes transformed into a makeshift sheath did the deal. Perfectly hiding the sword.
