"Specialist, the time is near, please prepare quickly." The person outside the door spoke quietly, just enough for Yang Xiao to hear clearly.
"Understood." Yang Xiao sat up, donned his outer garment, and opened the door.
Due to the secret mission, there were very few escorts arranged for this nighttime operation. Including Yang Xiao, there were only six people.
One of them was a liaison sent ahead by the Esoteric Sect.
The remaining four were all top-level agents. Two Netherworld Envoys sent by the General Bureau were present, both highly alert, guarding Yang Xiao front and back, clearly not wanting any errors at the last critical moment.
Following a dimly lit path, the group reached the riverbank.
However, to Yang Xiao's surprise, there were already quite a few people waiting at the riverbank, gathered in small groups, some sitting under trees, others squatting by the river.
