Deep Into The Mine

Figures flashed on either side of the boulder. Three men in gray robes appeared and marched toward Fang Bozheng with a respectful bow.

"Greetings, noble clansman!"

"Has there been any movement from the traitor?" Fang Bozheng asked.

"Not once did we see the traitor," a middle-aged man responded.

Fang Bozheng nodded as he turned around to explain to Shi Mu.

"Sect fellow Shi Mu, this is the only entrance and exit of the Serene Moon Mine. Ever since the traitor fled here, I've sent countless men to stand guard. However, he was never seen since then. There was an incident where two men snuck into the mine but it has nothing to do with this particular traitor. Based on our intel, the man was never been seen even once."

Shi Mu nodded as he began walking inside.

"Sect fellow Shi, please wait a moment," Fang Bozheng suddenly said as he flipped his palm, unleashing a small cloth bag with a white charm spell on top.
