"Thief!"
Zhao Ling and Wei Haojie immediately assumed the person climbing over the wall was a thief. After all, not only was the individual scaling the wall, but they also had their face covered with a black cloth, looking every bit the part of a bandit bent on robbery!
"He's a friend," Su Xuan said, raising a hand to stop them.
"Master Su, I've arrived!"
The person walked straight up to Su Xuan and removed the cloth from their face, revealing Du Zilong of Du's Tai Chi. He had come as Su Xuan had instructed.
"So you've come," Su Xuan said. "But why cover your face?"
"Those of us who roam the martial world do everything with a touch of professionalism," Du Zilong replied.
"Er... have a seat!" Su Xuan gestured toward the tea table and personally poured a cup of tea for him.
"Master Su, who are these two?"
After sitting down, Du Zilong had intended to get straight to business, but he glanced at Zhao Ling and Wei Haojie and decided to hold his tongue for the moment.
