At the foot of Xieming Mountain, in the town, Jiang Cheng and the others were still waiting for news.
The day after receiving Lin Wan'er's call, Mount Luoyun had come to deliver the latest orders. The higher-ups had approved their plan. Once the reinforcements arrived, they would set out together and investigate Linxianzhuang.
He had also stressed that their goal this time was only to scout ahead and determine what was going on inside Linxianzhuang. Once they confirmed the presence of high-ranking Night Watch members, they had plenty of ways to wipe them out.
To Mount Luoyun's surprise, not only did Jiang Cheng, the Fatty, and the others reject his plan, but No. 2 and No. 13, who were eager for revenge, did as well. It seemed the group had reached some unspoken understanding.
"Is something worrying you?"
Mount Luoyun didn't insist, since the orders from above weren't absolute. But he wanted to know why. A single night had passed, and it seemed a lot had happened that he didn't know about. The feeling that he couldn't control the whole situation made him uneasy.
"It's not really a matter of concern, but we have too little information right now. I think we should at least make more thorough preparations." No. 2 replied calmly, his face betraying nothing.
Jiang Cheng's reason was more compelling. He bluntly explained that his Door had broken through the other side's obstruction several times in the dream to save him, and had suffered a powerful backlash as a result. It had temporarily cut off contact with him.
A Door disciple without the power of their Door was no different from an ordinary person. In some ways, they were even worse off, so they were clearly no longer suited to carry out this kind of mission.
