“Well, putting asidea pirate, it see plan to enter the forbidden area of the Garden of Shadows?” The King s with exciteainst the doorframe with her arms crossed over her chest

Xue Wei frohen he heard her question He had not expected that she was eavesdropping on their previous conversation; however with her current attitude, it did not see theht,” Xue Wei admitted with a nod of his head “We went to the ninth floor of the Soul Tower today and saw soave us an idea of what ht be hidden within the forbidden area, and ould like to enter it to make sure whether or not we are correct”

“Ah, you saw the creepy bloodnodded her head as she heard Xue Wei's words “As a matter of fact, I have been to the ninth floor once too and saw the walls being filled with bloody scratches while I was there, it was definitely a gruesoht”

“I too had an idea that perhaps the daily tento do with the Soul Tower, but every tiate it, I was stopped I had also wanted to enter the forbidden area, but they were quite alert arounddied and I was forced to drop out of the academy and take over his job”

Xue Wei pondered on her words for a moment, and then he made a decision “Do you want to co with a hesitant expression on his face

Truth was that he was not trusting a lot of people here at Yan Dalu As the King had said, it was hard to deter thisthe continent, and as involved in it

But when he looked at the King, he had a sense of kinshi+p It felt as if the King was just like hi on She seemed to be the same kind of person as hi but was forced to beco she did not wish for because of outer influences

Xue Wei did not feel any kind of romantic attachment towards her, but he innately felt as if they were friends who had known each other forwas surprised when she heard the offer Xue Wei came out with, and her eyes shone with happiness and excitement

She looked behind her at the darkness outside the house, conte the pros and cons of the offer

“I have a few hours before they notice that I left the palace,” the King h to deal with the forbidden area! Let us go!”

Having agreed, the group of five were already prepared so they startedout from the courtyard, and towards the forbidden area i at all hours of the day, the space around the forbidden area was usually e here nor was it on the path towards much else

A few people would come here out of curiosity every now and then, or couples would walk past while being intimate, but when they arrived, no one appeared to be there

Looking around, Xue Wei noticed that the forbidden area was behind a large wall There was also atheir entrance

There were no guards around the walls nor the gate—which appeared to be quite securely locked too Surveying the obstruction, Xue Wei considered that since everyone within the acadey, their physical strength would be quite limited, so they simply would not have the power to ju an effective deterrent

Things were different for the group of friends, however All of the Qi,it a simple feat for them to jump to the top of the walls and drop down on the other side

Hei Gou had the highest rank and strength a around her waist “Pardon s crouched andthe surprisingly gracefully on the top of the wall

Seeing Hei Gou taking action, the others did not waste tirasped Bai Tianyi's collar and jumped to the top of the wall, closely followed by Xue Wei

As they landed on the top of the wall, they quickly glanced around themselves, only to notice the silence and tranquility was the sa, so they quickly jumped down on the opposite side of the wall before anyone had a chance to see them so exposed

There were no foruards or traps Everything seeround, Xue Wei oncethe courtyard He sniffed the air to see whether or not he could smell any blood or the scent of death, but the only scent that wafted into his nose was the scent of peach blossoms

The entire side of the road they had landed on had a breathtaking row of peach trees, all of the to the floor, looking veryfrom the skies above

The scenery was beautiful, with the silver htly cold rays of light shi+ning against the petals carpeting the ground

Many petals had been left on the ground, all of thens of any kind of human activity within the forbidden area, even the houses that were hidden behind the peach trees seemed as if they had been left to their own devices for manyto ruins

Looking around, Xue Wei frowned He had his spiritual energy spread wide to try and keep an eye on every movement around hi his own
