Looking at the mountain range blocking their path, it seed there was no way through. An Jing, Xiao Changyi, and the three little beauties were quite puzzled and all turned to look at the people from Slayer Tower who had co to et them as they approached the mountains.
The person who ca to greet them was Ronghua, the Left Protector of Slayer Tower. Ronghua appeared to be in his twenties, dressed in white, tall and handso, with a folding fan in his hand, exuding grace and charm, almost like a celestial being.
Seeing them look his way, Ronghua simply smiled slightly, then closed his fan and walked a bit further into the mountain. Naturally, there were many trees in the mountain, and Ronghua rhythmically tapped one of the trees three tis with his fan. Imdiately, a piece of turf covered with weeds protruded from the ground.
Suddenly, two strong n erged from beneath the ground to push away that piece of turf, moving it aside to reveal an entrance.
Once that thick piece of turf covered with weeds was moved aside and put down, the two strong n respectfully clasped their fists toward Ronghua and said, "Left Protector!"
Ronghua didn’t pay them any attention, instead pointing his fan at the entrance and smiling at An Jing and the others: "Please."
The three little beauties were very excited, finding it all so mysterious and fun. Without needing An Jing and Xiao Changyi to push them, as soon as Ronghua said "please," they rushed inside.
An Jing glanced at the tree Ronghua had tapped earlier; that tree must be connected to the underground, and the sound transmitted to the people below, who then opened the entrance to let people in.
Moreover, the underside of the turf was made of cold iron, secured with chains, ensuring that if the people inside didn’t allow entry, nobody could get in.
The entrance to Slayer Tower was indeed so concealed...
Involuntarily, An Jing glanced at the mountain range again. With the entrance here, Slayer Tower must be among these mountains.
Layers upon layers, stretching thousands of miles, these endless mountains are such that no one would think there was a Slayer Tower inside. It’s even more unimaginable that there are people living inside. No wonder no one knows the location of Slayer Tower.
Exchanging a glance with Xiao Changyi, An Jing and Xiao Changyi finally entered the tunnel through the entrance.
The entrance led to twenty-eight steps that went straight underground, followed by winding passageways, illuminated with oil lamps, still quite bright.
Ronghua didn’t say much, only guiding An Jing and Xiao Changyi, along with the three little beauties, to follow him to prevent getting lost or risking their lives in the tunnels.
There were many branches in the tunnels, so dead ends and various chanisms, designed to prevent enemies from infiltrating Slayer Tower and threatening its safety.
After walking for quite a while in the tunnel, upon erging from it, they were greeted by various majestic ancient structures built on different hills.
Surveying the surroundings, there were many mountains encircling them, blocking the outside view, even the tallest structures of Slayer Tower were obscured by the large mountains surrounding them, making it impossible for anyone outside the mountains to see.
An Jing and Xiao Changyi both felt that this must be right in the center of the mountains.
Before them were countless, crisscrossing steps, all made from large stone slabs, very sturdy, with buildings nestled among them, resembling a huge labyrinth.
This Slayer Tower must have been constructed at great expense.
"Father, Mother, you’re here!" Upon hearing from a subordinate that An Jing and the others had arrived, Su Yixing hurriedly ran over.
Hearing the voice, An Jing and Xiao Changyi turned to see their second son running down from the high steps on their left.
Above those steps, there was a large building resembling a palace.
