章節 1079: Surprising Guest

The two moons of the Nine-Dao World hung high in the sky, bathing the land in a silvery light. The inhabitants of Jagged Cliff City went about their nightly business, unaware of the hidden shadow lingering nearby. 

Shrouded by his stealth arts, Grandmaster Darkcloud lingered near the orphanage, waiting for his opportunity to infiltrate and learn of the secrets contained within. The night dragged on for several hours before the door to the orphanage opened and the Late World Expansion caretaker stepped out. 

She tapped the formation panel next to the door, which flared with a flash of light as it closed, sealing it off with some sort of formation. She looked about in all directions then left, leaving for some unknown business.

The Grandmaster watched her leave down Cinder Street, then moved. His figure was like a mass of darkness, almost indiscernible from the surrounding darkness, like a shadow at night.
