Ye Qingtang did not hurry them but just went along with the slow pace of Lu Yuanxiang's team. As per Ye Qing's instructions, Mu Ziying spent all night crafting over a dozen wooden birds.
Those birds were rather small, only the size of a palm, and did not have any attacking abilities. But their simple design made them perfect for scouting.
Ye Qingtang would have Mu Ziying release those birds to scout their surroundings first to ensure that it was safe. Only then would they continue forward.
Every step was made with extra caution.
Lu Yuanxiang's team was very curious when they saw Mu Ziying controlling those birds to scout the route ahead.
At first, they saw faint strands shooting out of Mu Ziying's fingers and joining those wooden birds. As the birds flew farther away, those lines disappeared without a trace.
Lu Yuanxiang had met several famous puppet masters before but had never seen this kind of puppetry.
