Near Gusu City, deep underground.
"Is everything arranged?"
"Rest assured, I've trapped that old man from the Zhao family deep in Five Dragon Mountain. The measures I've set up this time should delay that little Taoist... for at least an hour!"
Hall Master Xia flicked the strand of hair by her ear and spoke confidently.
"An hour, is that enough time?"
A cold, coarse voice asked.
"Considering the negative emotions collected in the Transformation Pond, an hour is more than enough to initiate the plan. Moreover, once the plan is fully activated, even if that little Taoist rushes back, I'm afraid he'll be helpless."
"Good, then I'll go and arrange it."
Hall Master Zou said and was about to turn around and leave.
"Don't rush, wait for the dark agent's word. The little Taoist hasn't left the city yet. The Third Elder has decided to initiate the plan early this time; we can't afford any slip-ups at the last moment."
