In mid-air, Shen Tong's gaze was locked on the caravan. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

No room for the slightest negligence.

After all, there had been incidents of Hidden Kill infiltrations before, and Great Yu suffered heavy losses then.

Even the perilous site for suppression was almost lost.

This is why inspections begin while still far from the Stone Cave.

"Reporting to Master Tong, no issues found!"

After a long time, the leader approached Shen Tong and reported loudly.

"Hmm!"

He nodded slightly; he couldn't afford any mistakes now, or the Shen Family would be in trouble.

"Follow closely, do not be careless!"

"Yes, Master Tong!"

Afterwards, Shen Tong stepped out into the air, leaving, while more guards joined the caravan escort.

Chen Xuan and Liu Sheng returned to the carriage.

"Chief Eunuch, no issues, right?"

Now there were so many eyes, but it was unclear how Liu Sheng arranged it.

Seeing his worried expression, Liu Sheng spoke softly,

"Don't worry."

"They are only escorting to the Stone Cave, after entering, there will be specific personnel to receive them."

He was clear that the ones receiving the Spirit Stones were his people.

"Not simple indeed!"

Chen Xuan mused inwardly, these major figures of Great Yu were indeed not simple, all had their own people installed within perilous sites.

"Don't let your mind wander!"

"Perilous sites are arranged by Duke Qin alone, no one can interfere, not even me."

"Then..."

"Shut up! Don't ask things you shouldn't ask!"

Liu Sheng glared at him; he told him this as a warning, even if he joined the Ritual Department in the future, he still couldn't interfere with perilous sites.

Otherwise, Emperor Yu wouldn't agree.

"Hehe, got it, got it!"

Chen Xuan smiled along.

However, he complained inwardly, isn't this just double standards?

Of course, he wouldn't dare say this in front of Liu Sheng, fearing to get beaten!

Over half an hour later.

The carriage halted again, this time Chen Xuan and his company disembarked from the carriage.

"Is this the place for suppressing the Stone Cave?"

Chen Xuan gazed at the towering city wall, with glowing runes, the array was in full activation.

Several dozen meters long caravan formed a line, each Spirit Stone-carrying carriage underwent a spiritual power scan.

"Chief Eunuch, why is the array fully activated?"

Chen Xuan was somewhat puzzled.

His expertise in arrays was not low, just seeing the complexity of the runes indicated that this array was not simple.

In full activation, the cost of Spirit Stones would certainly not be low.

"This may look like a city, but is actually the cage for the Stone Cave!"

Cage?!

"What do you mean, Chief Eunuch?" Chen Xuan was a bit confused.

"It's literal, the entrance to the Stone Cave is within the city, and this city is specially built to suppress the Stone Cave."

"Actually, this city is the array!"

"Right! And it's a naturally formed array, maybe heaven stands with Great Yu."

To be honest, the Stone Cave's luck was bad.

Great Yu was in dire peril at the time, ultimately forced to invite the Hall Master of Star Hall, who provided guidance to build this city.

When the construction was completed, the Hall Master discovered the city's unique position.

Afterwards, using grand methods, an array was arrayed around the city as the eye of the needle.

Only then did the Stone Cave's advance stop.

"Enter the city!"

At this moment, Lang Fei's voice came from the front.

After passing the array's inspection at the city gate, the two entered the city.

But Shen Tong, who had returned to the city earlier, was standing in the city, his expression no longer as tense as before.

With these Spirit Stones entering the city, his task was considered complete.

The next matters were in the hands of the Garrison Army.

At this time, Chen Xuan and Liu Sheng passed by him.

"Hmm?"

Shen Tong's expression turned a bit puzzled.

His gaze lingered on Chen Xuan, who was already walking away.

"What's going on?"

"Why do I smell a familiar scent?"

He pondered deeply, but was sure he hadn't met these two before.

"Did Chief Eunuch detect something?"

Chen Xuan transmitted his thoughts.

With his strength, he could certainly feel Shen Tong's gaze.

And since it lasted so long, it probably wasn't accidental.

"No problems!"

Liu Sheng replied indifferently, "Next, it's the Garrison Army, the commander receiving them is under me!"

"That's for the best."

Hope that's the case, fewer complications mean less trouble.

At this point, Chen Xuan also began to observe the city's situation.

Along the wide road were rows of small houses, he even noticed taverns and shops, and there were some ordinary people on the streets.

"Why are there these things?"

Chen Xuan was quite puzzled, the place suppressing the Stone Cave felt no different from an ordinary city.

"It's normal, the Garrison Army is human too, the usual cycles are decades, some even spend a lifetime here, naturally marrying and having children, which brings demands, just forget about these, do you know what's the most abundant here?"

Liu Sheng asked.

"Brothels?"

Chen Xuan thought for a moment and guessed.

After all, the Garrison Army comprised men, staying here for extended periods, there are certainly needs.

"You really understand, huh."

Liu Sheng was somewhat surprised, not expecting him to guess it right away.

"Men after all!"

Chen Xuan smiled slightly, this wasn't unusual.

"You cheeky brat!"

Liu Sheng scolded with a smile, but then felt pity for these Garrison troops, "Too long of a time makes one's mind change, brothels are something Great Yu specifically arranged to allow them to vent, to be satisfied."

"Can you guess another aspect?"
