Inside the Dust Valley Sect, at the northern part of the core area, a secluded courtyard stood, bordering a wild forest.
It was far from the usual bustling of the sect's activities. Around the courtyard were overgrown bushes and tall trees.
Squirrels and snakes could be seen playing on the trees.
The courtyard was desolate, as if there hadn't been any human activities in the area for the past few months.
The lone footpath to the courtyard was covered with thick grass.
However, compared to the rundown area around the courtyard, the courtyard was entirely different inside.
Inside the courtyard, everywhere was spotlessly clean; the flowers were regularly attended to.
In one of the rooms, a middle-aged woman and a middle-aged man were staring at a young man.
"So, what do you think?" Elder Li Huang asked with a light smile.
While everyone was wondering where she was, she had turned this courtyard into her research site.
It was free from the noise and chatter of the sect.
