His finger came to rest on the auction house's location on the map, and he explained in detail, "A Titled Douluo guards the front entrance, and experts watch the side doors on both sides. The rear entrance is the least guarded; only two Soul Douluos are watching it. When the time comes, you'll sneak in through the back."
"When you make your move and seize the items, Huo Yuhao will use Spiritual Detection to guide you the whole way. You'll see every guard and every gap in the defenses clearly. Nothing will go wrong."
"Once you've got what you came for, you'll withdraw through the rear entrance and head south. There's a secret passage over there that leads straight outside the city. Only Huo Yuhao and I know where it is."
Du Busi nodded repeatedly as he listened, then remembered something and hurriedly asked, "What about the people from Shrek? They'll definitely be there too. If we run into them, won't that cause trouble?"
Xu Yanli chuckled, entirely unconcerned. "It'd be better if we ran into them. If the people from Shrek see Evil Soul Masters openly robbing the auction house, they'll surely step in. The more chaotic things get, the more it'll work in our favor. It's easier to fish in troubled waters."
As he spoke, he put the map away and leaned back in his chair. "Besides, I've already prepared a 'gift' for Shrek."
Du Busi raised an eyebrow, but knew better than to ask more. He understood that sometimes knowing too much was no good at all.
"By the way, what are you planning to bid on at the auction?" Du Busi asked.
Xu Yanli thought it over, then answered casually, "Just pick a few expensive things. It's not like I'll have to pay in the end."
