The Tiger’s Cave, The Dragon’s Palace 2
Even though Xueming was surprised by both incidents of the fire causing chaos and Li Biao, who was dragged away on the ground by Zhu Xincheng's crew like an animal. However, because the situation was critical and time was against it, Xueming's brain did not have enough room to think over the incident. He concentrated on his spiritual energy to examine the gaps in the defenses of the grand manor, which he assumed was Zhu Xincheng's quarters. Moreover, Xueming also concealed the aura of his power so the guards could not sense it.
However, when Xueming was 100 wahs away from the building, he could no longer hide, because of the guards that Zhu Xincheng had placed together with a magic item especially made for detecting hidden traps in various spots. They were so tightly deployed that there was no room left for Xueming to sneak in. Therefore, Xueming had to hide outside Zhu Xincheng’s defending radius.
