Chapter 32: The Mystery of Going Astray and Becoming Possessed

At 3 a.m., Shu Guan's figure appeared in an alley next to the Southern old city of Shen City.

The houses in this area looked somewhat low and dilapidated, with most of them having a history of decades. However, more than a hundred years ago, this area was the most prosperous and bustling part of Shen City. With the city's focus shifting to the Huangpu River bank over the past few decades, this region of the Southern old city had gradually become desolate.

Nowadays, those living in the Southern old city were mainly the lower-class citizens of Shen City, as well as many refugees who fled to Shen City.

This was a district where fish and dragons mixed, filled with swindlers, gamblers, prostitutes, thugs, and drug addicts. It was the perfect breeding ground for crime and a stronghold for gangs.

The three magnates of Shen City's Qing Sect all started from this place.

Shu Guan reached the deepest part of the alley.
