The three loud sounds were like the noise of fireworks ascending to the sky, so they generally did not catch the attention of ordinary people. However, only Sheng Shaochen, Sun Nanjue, and An Zhe could discern that these were not ordinary fireworks but the sound of a signal arrow with one long and two short bursts—the secret signal agreed upon within their iron triangle.
That meant, at this moment, either Sun Nanjue or An Zhe was waiting outside.
Sheng Shaochen cast a meaningful glance towards Guan Jiu at the temple entrance. After receiving the hint, Guan Jiu immediately exited the temple.
Soon, Guan Jiu returned, cautiously walked up to Sheng Shaochen, and whispered, "Young Master, An Zhe requests to see you, it's extremely urgent..."
Sheng Shaochen nodded, stood up, and walked over to the Old Lady, "Grandma, I need to step out for a while."
The Old Lady, seated in front of Buddha with her eyes lightly closed, nodded and said, "Go and come back quickly."
