Gu Yang peered into the well. It was too deep to see the bottom.
It reminded him of the bottomless pit in the Golden Court cave, the one that contained the corpse of the Celestial Being Divine Ape.
He was surprised to find such a place in the palace.
Out of curiosity, Gu Yang jumped in.
Suddenly, he heard Su Ningyan's voice, "This is the most secret place in the palace, for emperors alone. Since the establishment of the Great Zhou dynasty, you are likely the second outsider to be here."
He asked, "Who was the first one?"
"Sun Yuwei," she responded.
He vaguely recognized the name.
Suddenly, he remembered - a person of unparalleled power who was ranked second in the master's list.
Gu Yang hadn't crossed paths with a martial artist of this caliber before, and he wasn't sure about his strength level.
Suddenly, a thought struck him, "Is she the heritor of the Blue Sky Palace who instigated the feud between the Wu Family and the royal family more than twenty years ago?"
