"Don't worry, Master. This is the ability of a relic called a Silencing Stone. It can temporarily block the sound of our conversation," Tao Xuehai explained, lowering his hand.
"A relic? Is its effect powerful?" Lin Hui was a little curious. He had long heard that these items possessed all sorts of abilities. While none were exceptionally strong, their sheer variety of functions made them excellent supplements in actual combat.
However, relics were produced in very small numbers and were all controlled by major powers. He hadn't expected Tao Xuehai to have one.
