Chapter 157: One hundred and fifty-seven Scheming in the dark
Night, silent as a whisper!
In a certain Outer Sect courtyard of the Jade Pot Sect, a mysterious figure suddenly appeared, as if without stirring a single speck of dust, and without touching the ground, arrived right before a door.
"Whoever you are, how dare you break into my courtyard at night!"
However, at this moment, an angry shout came from within the room, and then the door was yanked open from the inside, revealing a slightly familiar figure.
"Tsk, tsk, not bad, at such a young age to have such extraordinary soul sensing abilities, it seems I have not misjudged you!"
Just as the owner of the courtyard was about to burst out of the door with an angry face, the intruding figure spoke with a faint smile. Only then did the owner of the courtyard clearly see the visitor’s features, and was immediately taken aback.
"Shen Xiao did not know the Second Elder was gracing us with his visit, my earlier words were disrespectful, please forgive me, Second Elder!"
It turns out that the owner of this courtyard was none other than Shen Xiao, the second-ranked talent on the Mortal List of the Outer Disciples. Seeing the green-robed elder, he was quick to bow and pay his respects with extreme deference.
For talents like Shen Xiao, who ranked at the top of the Mortal List, each had their own independent courtyard. But he never imagined that an authority of the Jade Pot Sect, one of the most powerful figures, would come to his humble abode in the dead of night.
Despite Shen Xiao and Feng Hang holding sway over the Outer Sect, where no one dared to offend them lightly, they would amount to nothing when it came to the grand scheme of the Jade Pot Sect. Not to mention the Elders with real power; even individuals like Yin Huan and Xue Gong would not take these Outer Sect talents seriously, right?
