"What do we do next?" Miss Turing asked.
Princess Zhining looked at Miss Turing and said, "The experts I brought with me have already started climbing the cliffs behind the castle. Once they reach the top, they will lower a few ropes, and at that time, all of us will grasp the ropes to climb the cliffs and escape."
Nurdan immediately fell to his knees and said, "Thank you, Commandery Princess, for sparing our lives."
At this moment, at a corner of the precipitous cliff behind the castle, over a dozen silhouettes were climbing upwards, carrying thick ropes on their backs, paving a route of escape for the important figures inside the castle.

"Can Nai'er handle it alone?" Suo Lun asked.
"What's not enough when we have the high ground?" Yan Yan said.
Ye Jingyu opened the box, which contained a dozen long, narrow wooden cases; upon opening one, an arrow lay inside.
The arrowhead was a crystal vial filled with a blood-red liquid.
"What is this?" Yan Yan asked.
