Li Si controlled his avatar and crept toward the City Lord's Manor.
The City Lord's Manor was exceptionally quiet beneath the night sky. Li Si observed it from outside for quite a while but found no sign of activity.
Though its exterior still looked fairly well-kept, it resembled a haunted house that had been neglected for ages, steeped in deathly stillness.
Since he was using a mental avatar for this exploration, Li Si did not put the avatar into stealth in order to determine whether the City Lord's Manor had any detection measures in place.
He simply strode over from the street without the slightest attempt at concealment.
Even after approaching the edge of the City Lord's Manor, Li Si's avatar had triggered no defensive or warning measures, nor had it come under attack.
Though Li Si found that strange, he did not stop. He continued guiding the avatar closer to the manor.
Even after touching the Stone Wall of the City Lord's Manor, Li Si found nothing amiss.
"Strange."
Li Si frowned and controlled the avatar to use Wall Passing Spell to enter the City Lord's Manor.
Passing through the thick wall, Li Si entered this residence that symbolized the highest authority in the small city.
Li Si controlled the avatar to look around. This appeared to be a room used for storing miscellaneous items.
Nearly half the room was piled with tables, chairs, wooden ladders, as well as cleaning tools such as brooms and mops.
Li Si ran his right hand over a table beside him and glanced at the faint dust on his fingers.
That amount did not suggest the place had gone uncleaned for a long time.
After all, it was a storage room. It was perfectly normal for it to be neglected for a while.
