A Mighty Being Makes His Move

At the summit of the Wizard Tower, Huo Yan stood on the stargazing platform in white robes, staff in hand.

He looked up at the Golden-Feathered Griffin soaring into the heavens, uncontrollable surprise and bewilderment showing in his eyes.

The Legendary Grand Wizard had never expected Gao Jing to leave in such a conspicuous manner.

Then why had Gao Jing done this?

Huo Yan knew that Gao Jing's origins were somewhat obscure, that he harbored a tremendous secret and possessed certain unusual abilities.
