The pair chose a direction and immediately left the battlefield.
Shortly after they were gone, the Loose Cultivators who had been hiding in the shadows finally crept out. They began a second round of looting, searching for any valuables that might have been overlooked, but most of them would come away empty-handed.
On the way back, Shen Yunjiao and Zhao Zuo were even more cautious, changing direction several times. They were mainly worried about being followed by someone she couldn't detect, wanting to avoid getting tripped up by a careless mistake.
After a series of stops and starts, the two arrived at Clear Water Lane in the Spring District, which was about three lanes away from Qingni Lane. Just as Zhao Zuo was feeling confused, Shen Yunjiao had already gotten her bearings.
"Inside, now."
Shen Yunjiao quickly scrambled onto the roof and slipped inside through a hole in the tiles. Zhao Zuo immediately followed.
