"We'll rest until just before dawn, then set off immediately."

With that, Luo Bin pushed open the main door and walked straight into the Taoist Grounds.

It was still bright outside, but the interior was dim and dusty. Cobwebs hung everywhere, and the translucent roof tiles were so dirty that little sunlight could penetrate them.

On the wall directly opposite the main entrance hung a huge divination chart with sixteen directional sectors.

Even the objects enshrined in the Primordial Calculation Lineage's Taoist Grounds differed from those of other Taoist Grounds.

"Could there still be danger here?" Shangguan Xingyue asked Xu Lu.

"Hard to say." Xu Lu shook his head.

"Why?" Dai Xingjie frowned.

"How many peaks are there in the Eight Winds and Five Elements? How few taboos did Auspicious Qi Town have? Who can say what strange things might be on the other peaks? Why? You're asking me why, brother? I'd like to ask you the same thing. You're a Six-Arts Fangshi, and you seem to have plenty of opinions." Xu Lu's words were not particularly aggressive, but they carried an edge of dissatisfaction.

Dai Xingjie had no answer.

A moment later, Dai Xingjie walked over to a pillar and said quietly, "Junior Sister, I'll clean this spot up. You get some rest."

He immediately dusted off one side of the pillar. There was a chair there as well, which he wiped clean.

Shangguan Xingyue sat down.
