Invisible, Li Huowang stood silently atop the tree canopy, quietly observing the endless procession in the distance.
Eunuchs, guards, palace maids, a colorful array of thousands formed a long line, with neither beginning nor end in sight.
According to the information provided by Ji Lin, his targets, the Empress Dowager and the Princess, were definitely within the splendid procession.
However, Li Huowang understood that now was not the opportune moment to strike, especially when he was uncertain of which luxurious carriage housed the two and how many people were lying in ambush within the crowd.
If he were to startle the snake by hitting the grass, and they both retreated back into the depths of the palace, it would be much more difficult to make a move then.
