The sound of footsteps gradually faded away until they disappeared completely.
Shen Cheng finally withdrew her gaze and gripped the prison bars tightly with her slender fingers.
She leaned against the door for a while before walking over to the wall to inspect the mark of the Charming Nine Sect.
Bending down, she reached out to touch it.
Click!
The place where the mark was located moved slightly and emitted a sound akin to that of a mechanism being activated.
Shen Cheng quickly withdrew her hand and carefully examined the mark.
Only then did she notice a subtle crack around the mark, almost imperceptible unless looked at closely.
Touching it again, with a gentle but firm press of her index and ring fingers, the mark made a clicking sound once more.
This sound, arising in the dim and spacious environment, seemed exceptionally abrupt.
Shen Cheng bit her lower lip, hesitated for a moment, pressed on the mark, and twisted.
Click! Boom...
