Just as he entered the palace gate, Shi Xiaole was met with a vast square paved with white marble. Its appearance was hard to distinguish due to the accumulation of soil over the years.
In fact, Shi Xiaole had already gleaned from the resources of the Divine Strategy academy that the Jade Sword Palace spans several thousand acres, and what was currently exposed was only a miniscule fraction of it.
Piles of earth, both big and small, covered over pavilions and buildings.
Glancing around, Shi Xiaole noticed a loft about sixty percent visible to open air. However, he was not eager to venture in, cautious about the potential danger that lurked.
Sure enough, soon after, Zhu Wen, the chubby 'White Pig Butcher', emerged with a grin, carrying a sword on his back and a sandalwood box tied around his waist. His loot seemed pretty substantial.
"This adventure will surely make me a fortune."
