The spirit waved lazily. Then drifted toward a corner of the room.
Golden qi slowly gathered around him once more as he resumed cultivation.
Soon, silence returned.
Long enough to make sure Mero wouldn't suddenly become curious again.
Then he stood.
His figure vanished from the room.
The City Lord's residence was large.
Beneath it lay several hidden chambers and underground tunnels that had once served as emergency escape routes.
Most of them had already been discovered and secured by his soldiers.
But one chamber remained isolated. A secret room hidden deep beneath the villa.
Only Alix knew about it.
After passing through several underground corridors, he finally arrived.
The chamber was enormous. Nearly a hundred meters wide.
The walls were reinforced with stone and formation arrays.
Dust covered the floor.
The room had clearly been abandoned for many years.
Alix looked around.
Then nodded.
"This will do."
