Great Protector's Mansion.
Zhong Shenxiu looked up, feeling the towering buildings coalesce into a dark mass, while an air of solemn severity swept over him.
"This is only my second time here, isn't it?"
He muttered to himself internally, following Feng Xixi inside.
"The true scriptures are never kept in the martial arts archives; they are entrusted to the secret storehouse of the Great Protector's Mansion. Everyone in the officialdom who receives inheritance must make this journey."
Feng Xixi led the way, "I'll take you to meet the Great Protector first, get the command tablet, and then you can open the secret archive. There, you will find the Oath Stone, where only with true sincerity can you take the oath."
This was likely some sort of test and oath?
Zhong Shenxiu's heart tensed as he followed behind Feng Xixi, being led by the Mansion's attendants to a side hall.
