Ye Wudao silently picked up a stone from the ground and threw it violently toward the outside of the great hall.
Bang!
A dull sound echoed.
"Who?" the elder in the green robe changed his expression, his pupil shooting a sharp glint as he surveyed the entire area.
Ye Wudao quickly hid behind a coiling dragon column, escaping detection.
"Disciple, you wait here for me, your teacher will go outside the hall to check it out!" the elder said with an icy face.
After a moment, a voice came from outside Hidden Dragon Hall, "It's nothing, just a stray dog! Disciple, I will be outside to protect you!"
"Thank you, Master, then I'll go in!" the royal youth said and walked toward the nine-story saber tower.
Ye Wudao didn't move rashly; he watched the royal youth step by step toward the nine-story saber tower, and only when he had gone in did Ye Wudao prepare to act.
Suddenly, the elder in the green robe came back in.
