The South Gate was also sealed off, but there weren't as many guards as at the West Gate. Jianqi sent out a secret signal, and soon, a number of dark guards gathered nearby.
"Master, we can only force our way through. We'll go first to draw them away and open the city gate; then you can come through to avoid any danger," Jianqi said.
Bai Ruozhu thought for a moment and nodded, "Use the Drug Powder I gave you."
"Yes."
Jianqi made a hand signal, leading all the dark guards straight towards the City Gate. He charged at the forefront, raising his hand to swing his sword, which released some Powder. The others followed him and engaged the guards at the gate in combat.
"Someone's forcing their way in, quick, fire the Signal Flare!" cried a deputy officer guarding the city gate. A soldier beside him took out a Signal Flare, but Jianqi, with his sharp eyes and quick hands, threw a dart at him, eliciting a scream as the Signal Flare fell to the ground nearby.
