All the major sects, including the Yin Yang Sect's base in America, left several secret passageways when building their strongholds.
These passageways were either for escape or other purposes.
A stranger suddenly coming upon them wouldn't have the time to search for the secret passageways and would attack from the main entrance.
Thus, even though everyone knew that the secret passageways could lead up there, they disdained to search for them.
After all, if they couldn't annihilate the sect's main forces, going up would still result in being beaten down.
Long Fei was anxious to find Wang Xiaoya and didn't have so many thoughts.
He hit it off with Shenxu Daoist, and together they bypassed the crowd and went to the secret passageway behind the mountain.
Midway up the mountain, a path just wide enough for a single step was hewn out.
Below was a cliff a kilometer high; a fall from here would likely turn a person into a pulp.
