Chapter 565
The peak of the mountain was eerily quiet today.
Cheng Dalei tiptoed to the peak, where scant few people were gathered. Most of them were halfway up the mountain, obstructing Yan Bugui. With the darkness of the night enveloping them, visibility was low, and Cheng Dalei wasn't worried about being discovered.
However, Cheng Dalei ended up facing a problem — one that wasn't too significant, yet was difficult to solve.
He didn't know where Liu Facai was hidden.
Thousand Scrolls Mountain was massive with many potential hiding places. The existence of prison cells in the Academy hadn't even occurred to Cheng Dalei.
It seemed unrealistic for him to search every single room. But if he randomly grabbed someone to ask, he would reveal his whereabouts. It was unclear whether the Academy deemed capturing Yan Bugui or killing him of higher importance.
