Taking advantage of the opportunity as the opponent retreated, Song Xiaodong slipped silently through their ranks and made his way towards the mountaintop.
This small hill, with its sparse trees, offered a clear view both from above and below. It was not easy for Song Xiaodong to sneak up without being noticed.
Luckily, it was nighttime, and Song Xiaodong utilized the darkness to finally reach the top.
"I'm here to save General Zhao!" He sensed someone behind a rock, about two meters away, and spoke directly.
"Just you alone?" A shadow emerged from behind the rock.
Song Xiaodong said, "There are eight of us in total, but I came ahead to assess the situation."
"Alright, follow me." The person led Song Xiaodong into a narrow cave. It was dark inside, but Song Xiaodong could still see Zhao Ruonan. However, only Zhao Ruonan and that expert were present.
Song Xiaodong said, "General Zhao, I'm Song Xiaodong."
