Before his eyes, Pei Jinye's figure had already slipped from Da Peng City into the borderlands between Central State and the Western Continent.
The dust and sand filled the air.
The ancient walls surrounding the area seemed badly weathered, as if they had stood for eons.
"The Elder is in the courtyard, please follow me," Lou Hai gestured.
Pei Jinye stepped forward to follow.
...
Seeing the Faceless Elder again, the man who now wore loose garments instead of a western suit still had the same Ghost Face Mask on his face.
"Sit."
The Faceless Elder, sitting by a pond in the courtyard, beckoned to Pei Jinye.
Lou Hai bowed and stepped back, his heart filled with envy for the Elder's attitude toward Pei Jinye.
"Elder."
"Did my sudden summons interfere with your affairs?" the Faceless Elder maintained his elegant fishing posture.
"Everything has been arranged," Pei Jinye, sitting to one side, noticed that the pond was another world unto itself.
