"In that case... let's retrace the route you usually take between here and Huangtong Mansion City," You Ziheng said.
"Alright," Zhou Heng nodded, confirmed the direction, and turned around, but after taking a few steps, he stopped, smiling bitterly, "Even the mountain roads are gone."
"You lead, I'll clear the way," You Ziheng decisively said.
"Thank you, senior," Zhou Heng sincerely thanked him.
