Teacher Xia was originally sneaking in to find someone.
He had cased all the famous estates of Saint Xiting; some were due to missions, others were personal interest, so there was no risk of getting lost.
He even knew some secret passageways unknown to others.
Like the one below.
The space containing the Underground Magic Array had three exits, one leading to the study, one to the Clan Leader's Meditation Room, and another to the garden.
He entered from the garden, planning to climb up from below, straight to the Clan Leader's Meditation Room.
This was the shortest route to the heart of the estate, allowing him to perfectly evade the Magic Sensing Rays in the castle corridors that were designed to detect infiltrators.
Although he could have forced his way in, it was still less trouble to take the underground route.
He hadn't expected to stumble upon an unexpected find!
As the transforming Roman was bound by the Prism Cage, he went straight to Dylan.
