As Ling Hua and Yan Qing anticipated, not only did the Family Head of the Ning Family receive news of Ling Hua and Yan Qing's appearance in Liangzhou City, but Wen Xingzhi of the Wen Family in Youzhou also got wind of the message.
It was unknown who delivered the message that was shot onto the city walls of Youzhou City with an arrow in the dead of night. The soldiers guarding the city, hearing the sound of the arrow, immediately prepared for battle. Due to the heavy snow and it being nighttime, no one saw a figure. After waiting for a long while with no further disturbances, the guards lit torches and looked out, only to find a letter attached to an arrow stuck in the wall. The guards retrieved the letter and handed it to the watch commander, who, after reading it, ordered the gates to be strictly guarded and personally took the letter to Wen Xingzhi.
