About fifty miles from Donglin City, deep in the mountains, there is an abandoned house. This was previously inhabited by people who guarded the mountain forests from nearby villages. It's deserted now.
This abandoned house is quite large, with ten or so rooms of varying sizes. Surrounding the house are guards, each emitting a strong aura. Inside one of the rooms, two men are sitting and drinking. If Shi Yan were here, he would surely recognize one of them—it is none other than Wing Shao. However, he looks a bit paler than the last time they met.
The other man appears to be around thirty years old, dressed in ancient attire, reminiscent of men from ancient times. He wears a long robe and carries a sword on his back, resembling a Sword Cultivator.
His face is cold and indifferent, and the powerful aura emanating from him suggests his strength is formidable, likely not inferior to Wing Shao.
