Two groups of people had just arrived at an area a short distance from the north gate of the Xian capital. A sexy and ravishing middle-aged woman led one group, clad in black. A burly middle-aged man, with a scar on his left cheek, led the other group, dressed in purple.
The middle-aged woman then ordered her members to infiltrate the Xian capital. Without wasting any time, they used their concealment techniques and carried out her order immediately.
Unlike them, the people dressed in purple did not infiltrate the Xian capital directly; instead, they took a destination and rushed toward the city's water source.
The middle-aged man tilted his head to the side and inquired. "Are you sure Xian Feng succeeded in capturing our disciples, He Ya? Didn't they leave with Prince Lian? Moreover, I heard that Emperor Shou ordered Huangfu Ziyuan to protect them, so they should be fine. Perhaps they simply haven't accomplished their mission, which is why they haven't returned to our sect."
