While Rong Chu and Gu Xixi were busy catching poisonous worms in the abandoned palace, Gu Xijiu had teleported back to her bedroom.
By then, it was already midnight. As usual, no one had realized that Gu Xijiu had been out. The maids who guarded her bedroom could be heard speaking very softly as they assumed that she was sleeping soundly.
The Firmament Stone admired her, "My master, how did you know that the Tianwen saint would have interest in the abandoned palace?"
Its owner was simply amazing!
Not only had she teleported back to her bedroom before being noticed, she even removed all traces of her presence in the area. The timing was simply too accurate.
Gu Xijiu closed her eyes and meditated. She did not answer its question. As a former assassin, she would have died many times if she did not have good instincts.
Instead of responding to its question, she asked the bracelet, "Is 'Long' the surname of the Overload of Tianwen?"
The Firmament Stone answered confidently, "Yes."
