Sui Xiong did not make an immediate trip to Garth City. No matter what that guy who was hiding behind the scenes wanted to do, it could wait a few days. Thus, he remained in Grey Tower City to settle the matters relevant to the three other cities.
Grey Tower City was a sacred city that housed the church of the God of Scholars. Although this god had long since fallen and the clergy role was taken over by the God of Knowledge, the city's scholastic atmosphere had not diminished yet. Walking along the streets, one could see young scholars discussing philosophy, and there were several open-air auditoriums where those who could not present in famous settings could share their works.
Sui Xiong flew in the sky and coincidentally noticed a young scholar was organizing an open-air speech. Thus, he lowered himself back to the ground curiously and landed on a rough stone pillar to enjoy the speech from afar like a VIP.
