「Inside an ordinary home somewhere in the city.」
Five men dressed in plain farmer's clothes waited in the courtyard. Their leader was a tall, middle-aged man.
Hiding in the courtyard, they listened to the chaos outside. They could sense a surge of Yin Qi not far from their location, and hear the miserable wails of the common folk.
These five men were a covert team deployed by the Celestial Net Department. They were hidden at key locations around South Mansion's Twelve Pillars, ready at a moment's notice to counter any assault on the Pillars by the Yin Tower Believers.
Only the elites of the Celestial Net Department were chosen for these covert teams. The weakest among them had a cultivation at the initial stage of the Refining the Internal Organs realm.
