As prosperous as the capital was, not ht Areas that were lit included places such as Wanong Alley, where there was a night market as well as various street performers, and the areas around the river pond which were lit so customers could board boats Most other streets were dark, only sparingly dotted by dih cracks in door and onto the stone-paved streets, forht lines

Fan Xian navigated between those lines, running in the night The cool night wind brushed against his slightly burning cheeks, giving hi After only a short while, he had already arrived at the royal co the day Seeing the building in the courtyard a distance away, he frowned—thereabout In Wu Zhu’s words, his neigong was level seven, and his control of it was level three If he wished to get inside without alaruards, he had to be extra cautious

Everything was quiet in the night The night watchain anyti calls carried over from the distance Fan Xian stood quietly behind the alley walls, adjusting his zhenqi, letting it slowly course through his entire body Using xueshan behind his waist at the control center, Fan Xian could perfectly control his every muscle and his awareness

He didn’t know if Wu Zhu was around, but he did know he couldn’t rely on Wu Zhu his entire life Regardless of how strong Wu Zhu was, the blind man couldn’t protect him at all times, or else his mother wouldn’t have suffered the fate she had all those years ago Vigorously wiping away any sweat from his palms, Fan Xian aimed at an inconspicuous spot on the wall Zhenqi slowly seeped out fro the outer edges, for a dip Just as he had climbed the cliffs back in Danzhou, his hands easily adhered to the wall Fan Xian began to slowly climb
