"That was nice!" Xiao Wu exclaimed. She was wearing a pair of fresh robes and had a towel wrapped around her head, as means to dry her hair. Beside her, Te Rin and Iris also wore a change of clothes.

Curiously enough, Te Rin's hair was surprisingly even longer than Xiao Wu's, reaching below the waist. As for Iris, her ginger hair barely reached her shoulders, so she was no 'threat' to the two longer haired women.

They had just come back from the bath. Having just enjoyed the experience, the young girl with green eyes had to admit that, while Lu Fang might have been an annoying (and somewhat fanatical when it came to Cheng Hao) old man, he really did come from a wealthy family.

Not only was the bathhouse luxurious, it was big and comfortable as well!

As expected from the head of a wealthy Clan such as the Lu Clan...

Xiao Wu walked forward, her slippers barey making any noise as she stepped on the ground. Behind her, the two older women were conversing quite enthusiastically:

"Te Rin, my disciple, I see you have not neglected your training! The way you fooled that old looking guy was so skillful I almost cried from the laughter! As for the look on his face? Absolutely priceless!" The ginger woman was grinning happily. After all, what teacher wouldn't be happy that her student had excelled in what he had taught?

"Master, you are exaggerating! In that last match, even I had been helpless against those two, forcing me to give up before we even started!"

"Oh yeah, I remember the fatty's reaction... you have such talent in making people go all 'what the fuck' that even I am envious!"

"Teacher, please don't be humble! After all, speaking of that last match, that ability you used to teleport us here was shocking to say the least! I've decided! I shall follow the path of illusions and mind trickery just like you, master!"

"Well said, Little Rin! We shall show those annoying brats exactly who's the boss here! You have powerful arms? Now you are even weaker than a newborn! You think of yourself as the happiest man in the world? Go cry in a corner from depression! Tricking the mind is the path to greatness!"

"Yeah!"

"Now, my disciple, let me teach you the secret bewitching illusion I have created..."

"My eyes have never been any more open before master! Please, teach me!"

"That's my disciple! Here, let me show you..."

Xiao Wu ignored the racket and the lights flashing behind her as she pondered deeply:

Fu Yin has been acting strange lately... I mean, he has always been a bit eccentric, however it is as if his character has changed since we have ever met. The way they act and the way they talk are just like two different people! Brother, what exactly has happened to you? Why have you not told me anything?

Xiao Wu sighed as she kept going forward, unhindered despite her stray thoughts. Lu Fang, in those few weeks he had been sent there, had built this whole place with the aid of the mysterious golden blood he had been given by Cheng Hao.

Actually, they were not too far below the surface as the lack of windows in the whole mansion might have suggested. Instead, they were located just a few feet beneath a layer of some sort of crystal-like substance.

According to Goldy and Uncle Black, this material was able to reflect some amount of spiritual energy, thus allowing them to be concealed even amongst the most prying of eyes. At least, that would be without counting the ambassadors from the Nine Heavens. They couldn't possibly hope to evade the sight of a beast at the peak of Martial Cultivation with their measly Mortal Realm bases, could they?
