Bai Tan landed on the ground softly, before he started to look around.

He was inside a hexagon-shaped room, there was a dark aura inside the room and it was elegantly decorated. In the center of the room stood a stage set at a higher level than the ground, it seemed like a stage for people to enjoy music and perform dances on. On each of the six walls, there was a door covered by curtains, as they swayed along with the wind, he was able to get a slight peek of a long hallway behind it, but didn't know where it led to.

"An assassin snuck into the palace! Take the assassin down!"

Hearing people screaming outside, and by the sounds of chaotic and urgent footsteps, Bai Tan could tell Loulan's palace guards were here after learning what'd happened. How high could a guard's martial skill be? He wasn't afraid of them, but right now he felt some trepidation towards Si You and Fu Lu. Si You obviously has qi deviation from training the Sky of Six Desires and even though he didn't have much time to live, coincidentally; all his potential was brought out because of his qi deviation. So his martial skills might just one up his and as for Fu Lu, if he was really as Mi Lansheng described him, then there was even more reason not to look down on him.

But, he couldn't leave just yet.

Shiyue was definitely in Si You's hands and he needed to get it back. Si You wanted to use him in exchange for one of the Rengu Nian Beads from Fu Lu, and since the Rengu Nian Beads were so important to Fu Lu, they should be in his possession.

Since he was already here, there was no reason for him to return empty-handed.

Bai Tan clenched his fists and walked towards one of the doors, he pulled the curtain aside to look out. The end of the long hallway was facing the nearby lake, there was no longer any sign of the mysterious beast masked man or Si You.

He reached out a hand to gesture at the lake and waited for a bit, but still didn't see a single shadow of Shiyue, he couldn't help but furrow his brows.

Ever since he'd swallowed Wu Yanfu's blood relic, Shiyue had accepted him as its master.

This type of weapon with extremely high spiritual powers, no matter where he was, as long as he reached out a hand to call for it, then Shiyue would come and search for him by itself. But at that time and moment, there was no movement at all and he didn't know the reason for it either.

Without the weapon he had become used to having in his hand, Bai Yan felt a little unsettled inside. Thinking back to the scene of the beast masked man and Si You fighting, he played the move of the "Zhu Tian Hua Mo Zhang" technique that he hadn't practiced for a long time in his head and thought that something was not right. The moves the beast masked man used were a little different to how it was written in the book.

Thinking about it a little more, not only was it a little different, but it was also a lot more refined. It looked like the other had made an advanced version of the move himself.

Bai Tan wasn't aware of Wu Yanfu's hidden trick. When Wu Yanfu had learned "Zhu Tian Hua Mo Zhang" dozens of years ago, he created a new palm gesture based on the original's base palm gesture by himself, then destroyed a part of the scroll that recorded types of palm gestures, and then reversed the order. This was to prevent outsiders from learning it and it also blocked Bai Tan, who liked to hide in the Cang Jing Ge to learn martial skills secretly. But Bai Tan's raw talent in learning martial arts was extremely high, so after observing the move in his head once, he had already had it down. Right now, his hands were extremely itchy as he wanted to compete with the mysterious person and learn a few moves from him as well.
