Chapter 546 - 546: Mirror Lake Manor Is a Cage

Mirror Lake Manor?

Zhao Wenxiang and Sun Zhen both turned to look at Jiang Xinghai.

Jiang Xinghai nodded heavily. "That's right. Mirror Lake Manor."

If even these two experts at the Great Perfection of the Celestial Destiny Realm didn't know about this so-called Mirror Lake Manor, then his only option would be to hurry his journey to Shanghai and meet up with Nightingale to conduct a deeper investigation.

"Mirror Lake Manor..."

Zhao Wenxiang waved his hand, creating a ripple of energy that enveloped the three of them.

It seemed the following topic was not for others to hear. The more one knew, the more danger one was in.

Afterward, Zhao Wenxiang and Sun Zhen exchanged a look, and both saw the confusion in the other's eyes.

"Master, if I may be so bold, why do you ask about this?" Sun Zhen was the first to speak.

"Five years ago, people from Mirror Lake Manor abducted my parents. At the time, only Shanghai was nearby. I still haven't found any trace of them." Jiang Xinghai then gave the two of them a rough summary of the story he had learned after tracking down the Arhat in Myanmar.

Zhao Wenxiang's heart skipped a beat. "Little Xinghai, it would be for the best if we could confirm your parents are still alive, but what if it's a trap?"

"Grandpa, do you know where this Mirror Lake Manor is or not?" Jiang Xinghai scratched his head.

He could tell the two of them were hesitating, as if they were worried about something.

Hearing this, Zhao Wenxiang and Sun Zhen looked at each other again, both seeing the gravity in the other's eyes.

"Little Xinghai, I have indeed heard of it. However, the place is fraught with danger. It's said that more than one Human Emperor Realm expert presides over it. It is a place that even Celestial Destiny Realm Cultivators like us are unwilling to speak of. Are you sure you want to go to Mirror Lake Manor?" Zhao Wenxiang asked in a low voice.

"Human Emperor Realm experts are there? I still have to go!" Jiang Xinghai nodded firmly.

'I have to find my parents, no matter how dangerous the journey!'

'Besides, if Mirror Lake Manor is truly that dangerous, it only makes it more imperative that I rescue my parents!'

Zhao Wenxiang sighed deeply. Although he was worried, he knew Jiang Xinghai's decision wouldn't be easily changed. "According to the rumors, Mirror Lake Manor, a place whose very name makes people turn pale, is a prison."

"A prison!" Jiang Xinghai took a deep breath, grief, indignation, and killing intent flashing in his eyes.

Mirror Lake Manor!

It's actually a prison!

'Does that mean my parents have been locked up for five years?'

'Assuming, of course, that they're still alive!'

"Master, it's said that Mirror Lake Manor has been capturing people for years," Sun Zhen added, dropping another secret he knew.

"Capturing people?"

Jiang Xinghai was completely baffled. "Is Mirror Lake Manor an official government prison, then?"

"Whether it's official or not, nobody knows. But the one thing we can be sure of is that the people who manage Mirror Lake Manor are all powerful Martial Arts experts." Zhao Wenxiang sighed. "Little Xinghai, what I'm about to say is all just rumor. Don't get agitated."

"Go on, Grandpa," Jiang Xinghai said, not understanding, his expression growing even more solemn.

'A topic that could make even Zhao Wenxiang this cautious must be something shocking.'

"It's said that the people imprisoned in Mirror Lake Manor are all the most vicious and wicked criminals."

As Zhao Wenxiang said this, Jiang Xinghai's expression clearly wavered.

"The most vicious and wicked criminals?" Jiang Xinghai was stunned for a moment.

Then, he burst out laughing. "Did my parents commit some unforgivable crime? Hmph! I'm actually looking forward to meeting the managers of Mirror Lake Manor now. I want to know why they've pinned such a monstrous crime on my parents!"

"It's just what is said, only a rumor. I don't know the specific details," Zhao Wenxiang said, trying to calm Jiang Xinghai down.

Sun Zhen just listened silently, his brow furrowed.

"What about the location?" Jiang Xinghai didn't care about anything else; he had to at least confirm its location.

'Whether my parents committed a monstrous crime or not doesn't matter!'

'Even if they committed a crime against the entire world, that doesn't matter either!'

'I would rather turn my back on the world than fail to repay my parents for raising me!'

'Besides, I don't believe my parents are capable of committing such a crime!'

"As for the location, there are rumors about it in two of our Dragon Country's most forbidden lands. One is indeed located in Shanghai, while the other is in the Imperial City." At this, Zhao Wenxiang shook his head. "As for which of the two it is, or the exact location, I don't know."

"Shanghai... the Imperial City!"

Jiang Xinghai clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white, and his whole body trembled.

"Master, there's actually a way to find out whether it's in Shanghai or the Imperial City. It's just extremely dangerous," Sun Zhen said suddenly, his eyes lighting up.

"Sun Zhen, can't you just shut the hell up?!" Zhao Wenxiang suddenly exploded with anger.

"I..." Sun Zhen immediately lowered his head.

Jiang Xinghai said firmly, "Grandpa, let him speak. No matter how dangerous it is, I'm prepared."

He could tell that Zhao Wenxiang seemed to know about it as well, and had only berated Sun Zhen because it was too dangerous.

"Sigh!"

Zhao Wenxiang waved his hand, and a ripple of energy enveloped the three of them.

"Grandpa, just say it," Jiang Xinghai urged again.
