Following the markings on the note, Xiao Zheng quickly found the location.
After a brief comparison, Xiao Zheng confirmed that the hidden cave nestled on the mountainside was indeed his destination for this trip.
Upon entering the cave, Xiao Zheng discovered that the passage was not very spacious, but it was apparent that it was man-made and quite old. He didn't know its original purpose but now it was being used as a hideout by the Gu Master.
The passage was long, and Xiao Zheng couldn't tell how far he had walked. Just as he assumed it would stretch on indefinitely, a turn suddenly appeared before him.
Turning the corner, the view opened up, revealing a hall.
To be precise, it was a massive cave, carved out by human hands.
A vast expanse lay before him, reminiscent of a plaza, with a flat surface seemingly polished by machines.
Xiao Zheng looked around and found no other exits around the plaza, which was likely the end of the passage.
