Right now, she was most worried about Ning Yu, who had gone missing with her. Even though the others were worried as well, they were still too close for her to contact them.

”Have you heard? The hall master brought back a woman a few days ago.” There were two men in black robes talking outside Zhan Xiaolou's hiding place.

The other person was clearly not interested in this gossip. Furthermore, he had a knowing look on his face as he said, ”Let's not talk about all those gossip. Is there still any news? It's been several hundred years.”

”Heh, you definitely won't know what's next. It's said that Hallmaster gave the medicine to that woman by the previous Hallmaster and now that Hallmaster is poisoned, there's no way to suppress it.” Seeing that his companion didn't believe him, the one on the left looked around to see that there was no one around, then he moved closer to his companion and said.

Zhan Xiaolou didn't understand these type of gossip. Furthermore, she didn't think that the person they were talking about was herself. She wholeheartedly wanted to escape when others weren't paying attention.

As expected, the steward dressed in steward's uniform came back after a short while. As if he had seen the two of them chattering, he sent the two of them to the back door handle.

Fine, I'll give it a shot. Zhan Xiaolou wanted to look for it himself, but these people just gave her several times over. If the two of them were to guard the door, she would definitely be able to use her martial arts to get out.

The back door was also a very grand place. It looked very grand, but after checking with his inner force, he didn't find anyone.

Zhan Xiaolou was puzzled as he squatted in the corner. If there was no one else holding the handle of this huge door, then was he not afraid of other people entering or something?

This place was really strange. Although he met two guards, other than the leader and the two in front who almost fell asleep, he didn't see anyone else. What was the meaning of this?

Could it be that the black-cloaked person had knocked him out because he didn't have any other plans, or … The others didn't even have the time to think about it. With such a tense situation, it was best for them to hurry out.
