章 175: Chapter 175: Old Diary (1)

The library of the Beast Order Sect had more scrolls and books than I had imagined. A Sect living in the middle of a forest, away from everything, was bond to look primitive or something similar, yet that was not the case for the Beast Order Sect.

Ma Chen and I went to the library to look for more information about the ancient tree we found in the depths of the forest. Because the Sect was at a wartime, there was no one there watching over the library, and anyone could go there to read and relax.

"This place is empty…" Ma Chen said.

"Of course it is. They have an ongoing war to attend to. Let us get to work!"

An empty library was even better for what we were doing.

An empty library was indeed ideal for our research. Ma Chen and I set to work, combing through the scrolls and books with meticulous care. The hushed silence of the library gave our search an air of secrecy, as if we were delving into forbidden knowledge.
