"Sure."
"If the sky falls, I will hold it up."

Just after Zhao Douan left this bamboo forest that afternoon.
A team of dozens arrived at the mountain's range.
This elite team of spies from the Prince Jing Mansion was tasked with tracking the Empress as well as Zhao Douan's whereabouts.
The leader of the team wore a hood, covering half his face, known as the "spy leader."
The one who held control and power over the entire espionage intelligence system.
He seemed deliberately to hide his face, but his exposed hands were slender and pale, and a narrow Miao Blade hung at his waist.
In the whole domain of Prince Jing's influence, the spy leader was a mysterious figure, residing in shadows for years.
Very few people knew he was the "criminal soldier" whom Prince Jing had saved from being exiled to Lingnan years ago by using his power.
Faked to have died during the exile journey, the real person was cunningly replaced and brought back to serve in the mansion.
