A Big Mistake

The area of the Shadow Tower was much larger than they had imagined.

In front of them, the attic courtyards were arranged in a labyrinthine fashion. The farther they went, the wider the spaces between the buildings became. Further back, a mountain stood tall.

The mountain was cloaked in a dark green hue, surrounded by lingering clouds and mist.

As they reached the foot of the mountain, Hall Master Lin let out a whistle, and in an instant, a cry echoed from above.

Gu Qingluan looked up and saw a large eagle soaring towards them.

The eagle had a massive body, and as it approached, it seemed to blot out the sun, causing a gusty wind.

It landed in front of the two of them, emitting a rumbling sound from its throat.

Hall Master Lin was the first to hop onto the eagle's back, signaling for Gu Qingluan to follow.

She calmly descended onto the eagle's back beside him.

The giant eagle flapped its wings and took to the sky.
