Kapitel 157: Chapter 142 Mr. Tantai (2nd update)

The Emperor stretched out his hand and lightly pressed a position underneath the stone door.

Chu Mo felt a slight tremble beneath his feet and then a deep rumbling sound echoed through the room as the heavy stone door slowly opened.

Chu Mo was somewhat surprised, thinking the strength of a martial artist in the Understanding Heart Realm, albeit relatively weak in the face of a ninth-tier heavenly-heart realm warrior who ascended to the heavens, was unparalleled in this mortal world. Why would such a person need to hide in such a place?

As if sensing Chu Mo's confusion, the Emperor volunteered, "Our Crown Prince's injury is severe. Senior Tantai has been in seclusion here. This place was originally a refuge built by the royal family of Great Xia over the generations."

Chu Mo nodded in sudden realization.

As a refuge for the royal family, this was a reasonable hiding place.
