After Fang Xiao formally entered a state of cultivation, chaos erupted among the three from the Profound Jade Sect.
"Something's wrong, Senior Brother!"
The Junior Brother and Junior Sister rushed into the room, their faces filled with anxiety.
The middle-aged Senior Brother looked displeased.
"You barged in without even announcing yourselves. No sense of decorum at all."
"Oh, Senior Brother, is this really the time to worry about decorum?"
"Tell me. What happened?"
"What else could it be? That thief has vanished. Earlier, I sent people to Qingping City. At first, we could still vaguely sense his location and confirm that he was inside the city.
"But yesterday, the sensing suddenly cut off."
"Senior Brother, you know that the aura retained by the mountain-guarding grand formation is infused with a trace of Great Dao Power after being simulated.
"Unless he used Great Dao Power as well to conceal himself, there is absolutely no way he could have evaded our detection."
They had already decided to lift the lockdown and use the teleportation formation to trap and kill the thief.
Yet before they could act, Fang Xiao had already hidden within the Small World.
The Small World was isolated from both within and without. So long as Fang Xiao did not emerge, let alone them, even if their Master came in person, he would return empty-handed.
But how could they possibly know of the Small World's existence?
"The sensing suddenly disappeared? It seems that the Seventh Order method he possesses can also conceal one's aura.
"Don't worry. If he could maintain this method for long, he would have used it long ago. Why would he hide in Qingping City and wait for an opportunity to use the teleportation formation?
"He didn't use it earlier, nor later, but suddenly used it now.
