The Mountain Manor was surrounded by trees, many of which were evergreen pines that didn't shed leaves in winter, probably to hide something. This was exactly what Zhang Xiaohua needed. He hid himself and cautiously observed the area with his Divine Sense.
He saw that it was a large estate, seemingly as large as an entire village. It was indeed different from what Zhang Xiaohua had seen before. Creek Villa had fields and houses, while the estate of the South Sea Serpent King in Jingyue City had mountains and rivers. This estate, however, had mostly small and neat houses.
Lord Gao drove his donkey cart, meandering through several neat little roads, and stopped in front of the main hall in the middle of the estate. Just as he was about to get off his cart, two men in green uniforms came out of the hall. They were surprised to see him, "Lord Gao, you're back again? Did you find something valuable?"
