Liu Ming flashed into the mountain valley and slowly moved along a small path, his surroundings filled with the fiery heat of the reddish rocks.
Moments later, he appeared in front of a grayish-white stone gate built against the mountain at the end of the valley.
Several red flame-like spirit patterns were engraved on the surface of the gray stone gate. After taking a few glances, Liu Ming approached the gate without hesitation and lightly knocked twice.
After two "bangs,"
the stone door opened a crack, revealing a young woman with somewhat dark skin.
Upon seeing Liu Ming, a hint of surprise flickered in her eyes, then she quickly noticed the mark of a high-ranking guest on his clothing.
"May I ask for the distinguished name of the senior, and is there anything I can assist you with?" the young woman asked somewhat skeptically.
