It was nearly impossible for the panicked Huang clansmen to impede the progress of the three. In the midst of the chaos, the trio went unnoticed, especially with the Huang clan leader and the black-robed man, practicing heretic cultivation, having already left. If they moved swiftly, they were unlikely to be detected.
The execution of their plan proceeded more smoothly than anticipated.
The three of them shared an unspoken agreement.
Gu Chaoyan instructed Adams not to incapacitate the three guards, and she took the attire of the Huang Clan to slip into the compound unnoticed.
With an air of familiarity, they openly entered the Huang Clan's premises.
The sacrificial pool, essential for the ritual, lacked any guards. Perhaps, the Huang Clan's patriarch had concerns about potential infiltrators, making it a convenient entry point.
Standing before the pool, the trio contemplated how to dismantle it.
