The night was hazy, bathed in moonlight.
In the Yuan Family Mansion, with its winding paths and silent library, Wang Xiaoyi seemed like a nimble mouse searching among the numerous ancient books.
"Yuan Family is really wealthy. This 'Demon-resisting Agency's Chronicle' has already become a rare edition. I heard that only 500 copies were printed initially."
Wang Xiaoyi took out a book wrapped in a red silk cover from a wooden box, looked around, and wrapped it with a handkerchief before handing it to Zhou Dao.
"You take it out first later," Wang Xiaoyi whispered his instructions.
As a Demon Sealing Master, Zhou Dao was only temporarily helping, so he didn't need to go with the Demon-slaying Guard. With less attention drawn to him, he was less likely to get noticed.
"Risking so much just to take a book out?" Zhou Dao shook his head and put the book down.
