As Xi Shen walked through the familiar paths while looking at the familiar buildings, he came upon the north wing of the Imperial Palace after about an hour and a half of walking. The Imperial Palace was big enough that most people would use carriages or tamed Spirit Beasts to go from one wing to another, but Xi Shen didn’t mind the walk as he was always intrigued by the beautiful craft pavilions, and he could casually train his movement technique.
During his walk here, Xi Shen’s figure would vanish mid-step before reappearing several dozen meters further ahead. If he hadn’t done this, he wouldn’t have reached the north wing in such a short amount of time.
As Xi Shen came upon the two large pillars that one goes through to signify entering another wing, one could visibly see a difference in the east wing Xi Shen was in before and this one, and it pertains to the servant activity, and the Li Clan family members mingling together.
