The Empress's sleeping chamber!
Quiet, elegant.
With both disciples having left, Fang Yang's lips curled into a slight smile, a faint trace of satisfaction adorning his face.

This divine skill was indeed quite formidable, especially because his two disciples practiced it with him, which brought the skill's effectiveness to its peak. In just an hour or two, he felt that his strength had increased substantially.
He was about to reach the peak of the Fourth Leaf.
At that time, with the aid of the formless Demon Body, the dragon qi within him, and many other supporting techniques,
after the calamity descended, he would have a much better chance of surviving in this chaotic world and could protect his disciples from harm.
This was indeed something worth celebrating for him.
