Monk Xuan Ming opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a stifled breath, "Still no use! They've set up a Soundproof Formation; I can't eavesdrop on their conversation... What a cunning kid!" Originally, Monk Xuan Ming had intended to covertly extend his Divine Sense to overhear the conversation between Gao Fei and Shangguan Yunyue, but Gao Fei had anticipated this and had arranged for an extremely clever Soundproof Formation, effectively blocking Monk Xuan Ming's Divine Sense from the outside.
"Interesting!"
A hint of a smile emerged on the corners of Monk Xuan Ming's mouth, "What exactly did you talk about? Why are you afraid of me hearing it?"
Just as Monk Xuan Ming was hesitating whether to enter and see for himself, a voice came from inside the Stone Tower, "Monk outside, come in for a moment, Shangguan Yunyue has something to tell you."
