Wang Yue didn't answer Zhi Mo's question. Instead, he asked gravely, "Zhi Mo, do you have any of Prince Ding's men with you? Or do you know another way there?"
Zhi Mo hesitated, then decided not to hide anything. He led Wang Yue and the others along a roundabout route, and they finally reached the courtyard at the foot of Tiangong Mountain.
