After the news spread, a large number of Black Tiger Army soldiers assembled. They completely surrounded the alley where the courtyard was located, rendering it impenetrable.
Meanwhile, the residents in the alley were roused from their sleep and quietly moved out.
"Are you sure he's inside?" Shen Changqing looked toward the darkened alley ahead, his expression grave.
Wen Ce, who was beside him, nodded. "Indeed. I've had everyone surround the entire alley. There's absolutely no way he could have escaped."
"Good." Wen Ce's response made it clear to Shen Changqing.
In some respects, the Black Tiger Army was much more thorough than he had thought.
"Now that we've confirmed the Barbarian's location, there's no need to hesitate. You all guard this place; leave the rest to me!"
"Lord Shen, please be extremely careful," Wen Ce said gravely.
