Jian Jia is a notorious outlaw on the list, with the nine sects heavily guarded, making it impossible to enter the city, let alone fly before the imperial court. The two of them had to race around the outer city walls, from South City to North City and then to West City, arriving at White Dragon Temple by the Chou Hour (1 to 3 AM).
Fortunately, at this hour, ordinary people are still drowsy, cultivators are engaged in breathing control and Dual Cultivation, and the guards are at their most relaxed. Only a few monks were awake, chanting and doing morning lessons. Seizing the opportunity, Tie Dan entered the temple and, following his senses, managed to find him.
Monk Hu was indeed conspicuous, wearing a black robe with coiled mustaches, standing nine feet tall, with a lean and slender build, resembling an erect hemp stalk, very noticeable among the group of hunched old monks. After washing in the temple's clear pool, he was returning alone to his courtyard, just happened to be alone.
