...
Within Yongjia City, inside a pitch-black "secure house."
An ancient door frame stood silently, and inside the room, the Gold Shadow Guard Scholar clutched a handkerchief, nervously watching the [Two-Life Gate], occasionally turning to look at the distant firelight outside the window.
Suddenly, the ancient double-leaf wooden door emitted a ghastly green light, and a figure "walked" out of the door out of thin air!
"Sir?!" The scholar's face lit up with joy and hurriedly reported, "Everything is proceeding according to plan. I am here to provide support."
Zhao Douan took a step out of the [Two-Life Gate], still in shock, a fine sheen of sweat appearing on his forehead, as he looked somewhat apprehensively at the ancient door frame.
Fortunately, he was cautious enough to have left a lifeline; otherwise, tonight would have met with disaster.
