Soon after, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in the east, preventing morning sunlight from shining toward the west.
Though the shadow was very dark, it didn't give onlookers a sinister feel; on the contrary, people felt uplifted when seeing it.
It was because the object blocking the morning sun was an ink stone.
The ink stone could be used to hold the ink, and the ink could be used to write words. The words usually contained ethics and rightfulness, so the ink stone should be uplifting.
This ink stone was one of the guardian treasures at the One-Cottage House: the Dragon Tail Ink-Stone.
Coming with the precious ink stone was Bu Qiuxiao, the House Master of the One-Cottage.
Both the Center Sect and the One-Cottage House had a close relationship with the imperial court, and both of their sects were also close to Zhaoge City; as a result, these two sect masters had arrived the fastest.
