Chapitre 283: 281

It was currently the dead of winter, bone-chillingly cold. A heavy snow had just fallen in Jianye City, covering the entire Bai Mansion in a blanket of pure white. Their figures quickly disappeared from Bai Xiaoyun's sight.

Bai Xiaoyun was left speechless, and all he could do was follow behind, albeit much slower.

When he finally caught up with them, he saw them standing at the edge of their own lake, looking out over the ice-covered surface.

As Bai Xiaoyun approached intending to initiate a conversation, his gaze suddenly caught sight of something beneath the ice on the lake surface. Waves upon waves were forming a spiral vortex, slowly and leisurely spinning.

"What is this?" Bai Xiaoyun exclaimed in surprise.

"This vortex is formed by the disturbance of the spiritual energy in the lake. If I'm not mistaken, Shen Luo's secret chamber is under this vortex. He must have successfully broken through the Qi Refining Stage," Bai Hecheng said, a faint smile lining his face.
