1321 Sudden Change of Scenery

Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti parted from the rest of the group and ascended the ladder in the largest tunnel north of the lake.

As Chen Xiaobei had mentioned earlier, the ancient emperors put a lot of emphasis on seating, which had to be in the north, facing the south. It was beyond doubt that this tunnel was where the imperial palace would draw water from. As long as they followed the path, they would be able to reach the palace.

As they walked, Luo Puti revealed her concerns to Chen Xiaobei. "Xiaobei! Something has been bothering me – since the Thousand Spirit Formation is real, then it must mean the 12 priests you mentioned earlier exists too!"

"Of course!" Chen Xiaobei nodded.

"Does that mean that there are still people living inside the ancient city all these while? Is my understanding accurate?" Luo Puti asked.
