When it came to the matter of life and death, all twenty individuals became solemn. They nodded their heads and replied, "Understood."

"Well now, let's all get ready. We're going to open the secret area of the Xuan Valley."

The elder gave the order before he turned and gazed at the four clan leaders.

The four clan leaders then stood up and looked over to the green mountain cliff sternly.

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, four jade pendants appeared in the palms of the four clan leaders. They channeled their positive energy and harnessed it towards the mountain wall.

"Boom!"

Through the rumbling and shaking, four beams of light gradually gathered into a circle on the lush green mountain wall.

In the middle of the circle, a light flickered and an entrance with a faint green light appeared. A layer of light rippled like a wave of water at the entrance.

"The entrance is open!"

"You can all enter now."

"Move along!"

The elder announced.

The crowd immediately began moving.

Wagner and Shamos took the lead and rushed into the circular entrance with a swoosh.

The others followed behind, not wanting to show any signs of weakness.

It was obvious that they wanted to enter first, so that they could seize the upper hand to gain benefits.

Fade was the only one left. He was curiously sizing up the entrance, as if he was pondering on something.

Although the entrance was on the mountain wall, the secret area of the Xuan Valley was obviously not on the mountain. Otherwise, he should have been able to sense it with his cultivation. The entrance must be an entrance only. The real secret area of the Xuan Valley must be located in another small unknown space.

"Why are you still here? If you do not wish to enter, then leave. Stop wasting our time."

Gotzel couldn't help but feel angry when he saw Fade wandering in a daze, and he roared angrily.

Upon hearing this, Fade frowned and glared at Gotzel. Then, he leaped up and was the last to enter. "Hmph!"

As soon as Fade entered, Gotzel snorted coldly.

Immediately, the circular entrance on the mountain wall disappeared from sight.

Beside him, Kinsley activated the light of the jade pendant in his hand and shot it out. A water mirror was formed on the mountain wall like a screen.

As the water mirror swayed, only a few vague shadows could be seen. The details were not very clear.

Just as everyone was puzzled, a few specks of light suddenly shone on the blurry water mirror.

Gotzel scoffed when he saw this. The corner of his mouth lifted slightly as he said faintly, "It must Wagner and those who have entered first."

Kinsley then turned to explain to the rest.

"The jade slips that we gave to them just now were specially made. Each jade slip is a speck of light on this water mirror. Every single one of them represents an explorer."

"Through observing the numbers and locations of the light specks on the water mirror, we can roughly know their situations in the secret area of the Xuan Valley. It will be easier for us to rescue them if they are in danger."

After hearing Kinsley's words, everyone finally understood what was going on. Once again, they focused on the water mirror on the mountain wall.

The light specks on the water mirror were constantly flashing. Apparently, the explorers had entered the secret area one after another.

However, it was a few seconds later after all nineteen lights lit up, that the last light speck finally shone.

Obviously, it must be Fade, who was the last to enter.

Such a situation made Gotzel's face sink. He snorted coldly and said, "I really don't understand what Jaguar is thinking about this boy."

Kinsley smiled and commented

lightly, "General Xu's strength and

identity are not of the ordinary.

There must be something special about this boy if he thinks s@highly of him."

Upon hearing this, Gotzel glanced at him with a strange expression.

He realised that Kinsley had been speaking up for Fade ever since before the opening of the entrance to Xuan Valley.

In fact, it seemed as if he was the one who recommended Fade!

With this in mind, Gotzel rolled his eyes and mentioned, "I heard that Fade had a conflict with a few disciples of Wushuang Tower a year ago."

"There were even rumours that Ceylor Sun, an elder of Wushuang Tower, was killed by him."

"Yet under such circumstances, you still think highly of him! I can't really understand your thoughts."

Gotzel deliberately brought this up in front of the crowd. Immediately, a heated discussion started to arise.

Especially with the disciples of the Wushuang Tower; most of their expressions darkened.

After all, Fade had not only killed Ceylon but he had also disabled Eirian Sun. Not to mention that he had also killed Callum Sim and a few other disciples.

It could be said that Fade was indeed an enemy of Wushuang Tower.

However, ever since Narvel Xu, the deputy guardian returned to the clan with Eirian, all discussions regarding this matter had been forbidden by Wushuang Tower. The issues relating to Ceylon's passing and Eirian's disabling had been downplayed.

This action had baffled many of the disciples of Wushuang Tower. They'd even rallied and petitioned to severely punish the murderer.

However, this petition was directly dismissed by the higher-ups immediately.

Moreover, the guardian had already stated clearly that the matter had passed and there was no need to further discuss it.

It could be said that this issue had been completely suppressed. Within Wushuang Tower, no one had ever spoken of it again.

However, no one had forgotten about it. Instead, it became heavier and heavier in their hearts.

Now that Gotzel had deliberately brought up this matter in front of everyone, they were curious again.

For a moment, the scene was a little chaotic. Kinsley glanced at the chaos among the disciples of Wushuang Tower and his face looked a little pale.

He turned to Gotzel and spoke flatly. There was even a hint of iciness in his voice. "Master Tuan, you don't have to worry about our Wushuang Tower's matters." With that, he turned his head and looked at the disciples of Wushuang Tower while releasing a suppressive aura.

"Have you not heard my orders?"

Upon hearing this, the disciples of Wushuang Tower instantly shut their mouths. They lowered their heads and kept quiet, not daring to say another word. The disciples of the other clans saw this and kept their mouths shut too.

The chaotic scene immediately became pin drop silence.

As Gotzel saw this, the corners of his mouth lifted, revealing a smirk.

"Kinsley, there are some things that can't be solved this way." Sure enough, these words were not meant to be spoken aloud.

Sanne, who was watching from the side, felt the tense atmosphere. She immediately smiled while pointing at the mirror and changed the topic "Look the light specks have picked up their pace. It looks like they have entered the second level."

Following the Sunset Fairy's words, everyone's attention was drawn back to the water mirror and they began to pay attention to the light specks.

At this moment, the twenty light specks on the water mirror had obviously split into three groups.
