Chu Zheng had always had some interest in the Mansion's Treasury of the Great Zhou Royal Family.
Great Zhou was a magical land, home to the Martial Path heritage as well as hidden lineages such as the Song Family with many secret inheritances.
Its Scripture Pavilion must certainly be hiding some surprises.
Now that the outside world was in great turmoil, it was a good time for him to lay low and cultivate in peace for a while.
The midday sun sprinkled over the lake, shimmering on the surface, with wild grass thriving on the shores.
Life was breeding within the lake, marked by the occasional ripple on the water's center.
No one would have imagined that less than a year prior, a centuries-old household had stood where the lake was now.
All the stories that had taken place there were completely buried, leaving not a single trace behind.
After a hundred years...a thousand years, no one will remember any of it.
