Chapter 523: Ah Huan’s Instruction, the Immortal Manor Competition

While Hu Li schemed, Qin Xiao suddenly felt a chill down his back.

“Ancestor, I know I was wrong. I’ll be more careful next time. But this chill on my back won’t go away. Should we move to another Immortal Manor?”

He had never had so many warnings of danger at Wanyang Immortal Manor. He was beginning to want out.

Fresh to the Immortal Realm, Qin Xiao could hardly know all its dangers. He kept feeling that some wretched subject was out to harm His Majesty—himself!
