Chapter 2578
James followed to the tower’s entrance.
There were several ancient scripts engraved on the beams of the entrance. They were from very ancient times,
and James could not read or understand them.
He froze momentarily and followed the Sword Master into the tower.
James discovered that the inside of the tower was relatively vast. The first floor was about a thousand square
meters. The place was furnished with countless bookshelves that were filled with books.
The Sword Master did not stay on the first floor but headed up the stairs to the ninth floor.
James followed her to the ninth floor.
After the Sword Master reached the ninth floor, she searched the books. Soon, she found an ancient book on a
bookshelf. Then, she found a corner to sit down and seriously read the book.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMeanwhile, James scanned his surroundings curiously.
He picked up a book and found that the words in the book were not in a language from Earth, so it was impossible
for him to read them.
After scrutinizing the book for a while, he still could not understand anything.
Thus, he put down the book.
Although he placed the book down very softly, it still caused a slight sound. The Sword Master, who was focused on
her book, sensed something and looked toward the sound.
She saw a book moving slightly and frowned.
"Am I hallucinating?"
She put the book in her hand down and walked over.
Seeing the Sword Master approaching, James instinctively leaned on the bookshelf to avoid the Sword Master.
Since his aura was concealed and he was invincible, the Sword Master could not see him.
She walked over, picked up the book that James had placed down, and observed it for a while.
The Sword Master scanned her surroundings again. After finding nothing unusual, she returned to her original spot
and sat down to continue reading her book.
James quietly walked over and watched her from aside.
He made sure his footsteps were light and almost completely silent.
However, the Sword Master was not an ordinary person. She was incredibly strong and had become a Sage many
years ago. Previously, she was not paying attention, so she missed it. However, she sensed something was
definitely wrong this time.
The sound of James’ footsteps did not go unnoticed by her.
She did not raise her head but used her Divine Sense to scan her surroundings. Despite so, she did not sense
anyone around her.
'Who's following me?' The Sword Master thought to herself.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt that moment, she felt the footsteps getting closer, as if the person following her was standing right before her.
She could tell the person was standing half a meter away and looking right at her.
The Sword Master put down the book in her hand and looked directly at James.
Although she could not see anything, she pretended to be calm and said lightly, "Since you're already here, why
don’t you reveal yourself?”
Hearing this, James was startled.
'Could she have discovered me?'
After a brief shock, he calmed down.
Nova had reassured him that his aura was concealed and he was invisible. No one could see him as long as he did
not reveal himself.
Thinking of this, he felt relieved and took a few steps backward.
The Sword Master could not find James, nor could she sense anyone around her. However, she could indeed hear
the footsteps.
She stared right straight ahead and said, "Why are you hiding? What exactly do you want? I won't hold back against
you if you don’t show yourself."
James did not feel threatened by her and casually turned to leave.
