Following the unusual aura, Lu Xingyan tracked it all the way and eventually stopped in an abandoned courtyard of the Yu Kingdom's palace.
She stood on the rooftop, first surveying her surroundings.
The courtyard was quite far from the range of the Sword Inquiry Tower.
There were no guards around, which spared her the steps of having to explain her identity or knock someone out.
Leaping off the wall, she moved forward through the weeds, guided by the peculiar sensation, finally halting beside a dry well.
The well wasn't deep; bending over to look inside, one could see fallen leaves that had drifted in and even a half-broken wooden bucket.
As for the oddity she had been tracking, the connection seemed to have been cut off right at this dry well.
Lu Xingyan frowned and raised her finger to calculate, then, reluctantly, she lowered her hand.
