Shangguan Xuanyi deftly secured the messenger crow that had landed on his shoulder safely inside his spatial ring.
The two of them leaned against the wall, Shangguan Xuanyi glanced at the two guards standing outside the gate, and scanned their surroundings.
Admittedly, although the city wall of Zhenyang County seemed about to topple at the slightest gust, the cells were solidly built.
If they wanted to avoid conflict and not disturb others, they could only manage one each. Both would have to take down the guards simultaneously.
Shangguan Xuanyi quietly shared his plan.
Xiao'er nodded in agreement.
Then, Shangguan Xuanyi leapt onto the rooftop, went to the other side of the room, and jumped down as silently as a cat on landing.
Shangguan Xuanyi and Xiao'er both silently counted in their heart. When they reached one hundred, they simultaneously hurled hidden weapons from their concealed position. Before the guards had a chance to shout an alert, they fell to the ground.
