"Well yeah but am not too sure as to why it will end in our generation" Ling Fei answered with a helpless smile on her face. When Hutton heard her, his brows creased as he began to ponder.
’Seems like I just got deeper into this shit’ Hutton thought as a wry smile eventually crept up on his face. But he quickly came back to normal as he asked.
"So is that everything you want to tell me?"
"Oh no, we haven’t even gone halfway yet. But before I tell you the rest, it’s best we just go inside" Ling Fei replied as she quickly passed though the entrance.
’Well there is no going back now’ Hutton thought with a helpless look on his face as he followed Bob and Lily pass through the entrance.
As soon as Hutton passed through the entrance, he felt like he just entered a chamber bathed in an ethereal glow, its atmosphere thick with an otherworldly aura. Mystical runes, ancient and enigmatic, are meticulously engraved upon the walls, pulsating with a faint, arcane energy. At the heart of the room lies a round table, its surface adorned with intricate carvings depicting forgotten legends and celestial maps. The air hums with a sense of reverence and anticipation, as if the very fabric of reality hangs in the balance within this mystical sanctum.
’What sort of place is this?’ Hutton thought as he observed the room with utmost curiosity.
"Come and have a seat Hutton" But just then, Ling Fei’s voice dragged Hutton’s attention back to where they were.
"Oh yeah" Hutton replied as he quickly took a seat in between Ling Fei and Lily. But as soon as he sat down, Bob did something totally unexpected.
In the dimly lit secret room, the air heavy with anticipation, Bob, with a solemn face and eyes gleaming with inner power, suddenly raised his hand. With a focused gaze, he channeled his qi, causing the air around him to shimmer with an ethereal glow.
The soft light illuminated the round table where Bob sat alongside two young ladies, Lily and Ling Fei, and a young, eager cultivator named Hutton.Lily’s eyes widened in awe, her lips parting in wonder as she witnessed the display of Bob’s mastery. Ling Fei leaned forward, her expression a mix of respect and curiosity, while Hutton’s eyes shined in surprise and wonder.
"Can I ask what you are doing Mr. Bob?" Hutton suddenly ask with a very intense curiousity on his face. Noticing the weird expression on Hutton’s face, Bob answered with a soft chuckle.
"Am just bring the room back to life"
"Bringing the room back to life?" Hutton asked with a confused look on his face. At this moment, Ling Fei interjected.
"Apparently, this room is a secret gathering place for all the keepers of harmony"
"What?" Hutton responded with a shocked look on his face. But before he could respond, something even more unbelievable happened.
Suddenly, the room began to change. Shadows danced along the walls as the very essence of Bob’s qi interacted with the surroundings. The air seemed to shimmer and ripple, as if touched by an invisible force. A soft, ethereal glow emanated from Bob, casting a warm light that bathed the room in a soothing radiance.Lily gasped in amazement, her eyes wide with wonder as she took in the transformation unfolding before her.
Ling Fei’s expression mirrored her astonishment, while Hutton watched with rapt attention, his gaze fixed on Bob with admiration and respect.As Bob continued to manipulate his qi, the secret room seemed to come alive with energy.
Patterns of light danced across the walls, casting intricate designs that pulsed with power. The very essence of the room shifted and changed, responding to Bob’s mastery over his inner qi.In that moment, the round table ceased to be just a piece of furniture—it became the focal point of a sacred space for the noble keepers of harmony.
"Welcome to the keepers of harmony sacred shrine" Bob suddenly spoke up with a light smile on his face. It took Hutton some time before he could take everything that just happened in.
"Incredible..." Hutton eventually muttered when he felt he has had enough. But at that moment, a thought crept into his mind which made him to ask.
"But wait, how did you know I was among the keepers of harmony. The people that could have known should be dead by now?"
"And I was here thinking you wouldn’t be able to figure it out" Ling Fei replied with a wry smile on her face. But she quickly came back to normal as he answered.
"Keepers of Harmony could be able to identify each other based on the unique aura they emanate. But that will depend on if they are of the same cultivation level"
"Wait, you said keepers of harmony could be able to identify each other. Are you saying you are also a keeper of Harmony?" Hutton asked with a surprised look on his face.
"Actually am not. It’s Bob here who is" Ling Fei answered as she shaked her head and then looked at Bob with a light smile on her face.
"Bob!?" This time, both Lily and Hutton said in chorus as they looked at the calm Bob with a shocked expression on there faces.
’Well that will explain how he could activate a secret room meant for the keepers of harmony’ Hutton eventually thought as he calmed down. But that expression didn’t last long as he quickly became confused again as he asked.
"But wait, why can’t I sense the unique aura meant for the keepers of harmony?"
"I was getting to that before you cut me short" Ling Fei replied with a cold smile on her face. Having figuring that out, Hutton quickly made an awkward smile as he said.
"Oh... Sorry"
"Well you can’t sense him because his cultivation level is higher than yours. People who have low cultivation level in the group can’t sense there fellow keepers who have a higher cultivation level, it is only those who have a much lower or equal cultivation level to yours can you sense" Ling Fei explained in a calm manner.
"Can I know what your cultivation level is Mr. Bob?" Hutton asked with a curious look on his face.
"Am at the core formation stage" Bob replied with a calm look on his face. But when Hutton heard him, his expression quickly became grim.
"You don’t have been disappointed by the gap Mr. Hutton. I know you will catch up to me pretty quickly, you are an indirect descendants of an elusive emperor after all" Bob tried to encourage him when he noticed the downcast expression on Hutton’s face.
"Yeah" Hutton said as he tried to get himself better. At that moment, Lily suddenly asked.
"So what next big sis?"
"What next?" Ling Fei asked back with a mysterious smile on her face as she quickly shifted her gaze to Bob. Noticing her gaze, Bob quickly made a small nod as he spoke up again.
"Hutton, how would you like to go into seclusion?"
"Seclusion? I don’t think I can, I have a few things that urgently needs my attention" Hutton replied with a pondering look on his face.
"You don’t have to worry Hutton, I can take care of the things for you while you are in seclusion"Ling Fei spoke up with a light smile on her face.
"I got a Russian giant that is currently after my life and my business" Hutton said with a calm expression on his face.
"You mean the Ivanov family? You don’t have to worry, I can keep them at bay for you" Ling Fei replied with a nonchalant expression on his face.
’She already knows?’ Hutton thought with a surprised look on his face. But he quickly calmed down as he said.
"I also have an awards event I need to attend for my restaurant in a week’s time"
"Have you forgotten what I told my personal assistant to tell you back at your house?" Ling Fei asked with a winning smile on her face. At that moment, he suddenly remembered how he got there which made him to smile wryly.
"It seems like I have no choice here huh?" Hutton eventually asked with a helpless smile on his face.
"You don’t have to worry Mr. Hutton, you will only be in seclusion for five days which will get you ready for the event right on time" Bob said with a light smile on his face.
"Well there is no other options so just lead the way" Hutton said as he shrugged his shoulders. After giving him a quick nod, Bob quickly turned to face a particular side of a wall.
While Bob was doing that, Ling Fei quickly faced Lily and quickly said.

"Ok big sis" Lily replied as she brought out her phone to make the call
