After waiting for what seemed like the time it takes to make a cup of tea, Ling Chen abandoned the thought that the person would appear on their own. By that time, the person had probably already left the area.
As for why this person saved him, Ling Chen could not decipher.
However, from the flying swords earlier, Ling Chen seemed to sense a faintly familiar aura. This aura, he felt as if he had encountered it somewhere before, somewhat reminiscent.
Could it be an expert sent by Empress Yunyao to protect him without wanting him to know?
Ling Chen shook his head, dismissing the thought, and then rode his flying sword, continuing deeper into the cave mansion.
After Ling Chen left, the entire ruin fell into a deep silence.
A moment later, a blurred figure emerged from the ruin and appeared mid-air.
It was a swordsman in cyan robes.
"As the rumors say, has he grown to such an extent already?"
