The woman in front of him was the communications officer of the Emperor-Slaying Alliance, who was responsible for transmitting intelligence and communication records, and had always been a key member of the Emperor-Slaying Alliance.

Although he had met her many times, he had never had any interaction with Xiao Xi'er, nor had he ever spoken to her. He had never even asked her name.

A deep shock flashed across Ye Zhancheng's profound eyes, but he suppressed his exhaustion and gritted his teeth, saying, "This one..."

A glint of light flashed in Xiao Xi'er's dark eyes, as if she had finally mustered up her courage: "My name is Xiao Xi'er!"

Upon hearing the name, Ye Zhancheng was slightly taken aback; the name was completely unfamiliar to him!

He had been in the Emperor-Slaying Alliance for many years, almost always busy with various events, while also winning people's hearts and making various plans within the alliance. This was the first time he had heard this woman's name.

Just as he was about to speak, the sound of guards banging on doors suddenly came from the corridor outside. Xiao Xi'er looked at Ye Zhancheng in shock. Seeing his sweaty face and wary eyes, she instantly understood what was going on!

Ye Zhancheng subconsciously placed his finger on the gun. If this woman dared to scream, he would show no mercy!

“It’s you…” A hint of fear flashed in Xiao Xi’er’s eyes, but she immediately grabbed Ye Zhancheng’s wrist. “Come with me!”

Before Ye Zhancheng could react, Xiao Xier pulled him into the bathroom. He warily pulled Rong Muhua into his arms, only to see Xiao Xier quickly turn on the shower and take off her own clothes...

A dark glint appeared in Ye Zhancheng's deep eyes, yet a suspicious red mark was clearly visible on his neck: "You..."

Before he could finish speaking, there was a sudden, urgent knocking on the door: "Open the door now! Or don't blame us for being rude!"

"Don't say anything! If they find you, they will never let you go!" Xiao Xi'er lowered her voice and quickly used the shower to wet herself from head to toe. Then she wrapped herself in a bath towel and ran outside.

Ye Zhancheng held Rong Muhua tightly in his arms, letting the shower water soak him. He was on guard the whole time. Soon he heard Xiao Xier open the door: "I'm taking a shower. What are you doing?"

At that moment, Ye Zhancheng held his breath. If this woman betrayed him, he would have no way out!

Outside the door, the guards were stunned when they saw Xiao Xi'er, wrapped in a bath towel, opening the door. "Why are you dressed like that? Did you see any suspicious people coming this way? He wouldn't be hiding in your room, would he?"

Xiao Xi'er was immediately amused by these words: "I was just taking a shower, isn't it normal for me to be a little slow?"

But the guards wouldn't listen to Xiao Xi'er's explanation; they were immediately enraged: "Get out of the way! We need to search!"

"Hey, you guys..." Xiao Xi'er's anxious voice came, and the guards all pushed open the door to the room aggressively.

In the bathroom, Ye Zhancheng's palms were sweating with nervousness. He held Rong Muhua tightly, ready to act at any moment.

Unexpectedly, a heavy groan came from outside. Ye Zhancheng pushed open a corner of the bathroom door in shock and looked over. He saw Xiao Xi'er's gentle eyes flash with a sharp light as she forcefully inserted a silver needle into an acupoint on the guard's neck.

The guard let out a heavy groan, and everyone collapsed in Xiao Xi'er's room.

Seeing his chance, Ye Zhancheng rushed out of the bathroom with Rong Muhua on his back and grabbed Xiao Xi'er's hand: "Come with me!"

The Emperor-Slaying Alliance's forbidden zone is not a place to stay for long; if she stays here, she will sooner or later become a ghost of the Emperor-Slaying Alliance!

Xiao Xi'er was breathing heavily in terror, her body slumped to the ground, her expression filled with panic as she looked at Ye Zhancheng, her voice trembling as she spoke: "I... I just... did I just attack them...?"

Because of her exceptional communication skills, she was captured by the Emperor-Slaying Alliance and brought to their headquarters, where she became their puppet.

But over the years, she has never had blood on her hands, nor has she ever held a gun.

But just now, she didn't know where she got the courage, but she actually used silver needles that she used only on animals before...

A deep tenderness flashed in Ye Zhancheng's profound eyes. Even though the situation was urgent, he still respectfully and gentlemanly extended his hand to Xiao Xi'er, his voice conveying an extraordinary sense of security: "Come with me. The Emperor-Slaying Alliance will not tolerate you."

Xiao Xi'er's timid gaze met Ye Zhancheng's eyes, and in that instant, she felt as if she had touched the light of a god.

She knew that Ye Zhancheng had never kept her in his heart, but she had secretly admired him for many years...

"I'll go with you!" Xiao Xi'er didn't know where she got the courage, she grabbed Ye Zhancheng's hand and was pulled into Ye Zhancheng's arms. Ye Zhancheng pulled a safety rope from the equipment at his waist.

After securing the safety rope, Ye Zhancheng quickly led Xiao Xi'er and Rong Muhua, jumping directly from the window into the torrential rain outside!

His swift movements were light and powerful, like a cat demon in the night. However, the subordinates of the Emperor Killing Alliance had already searched the headquarters like madmen. As soon as Ye Zhancheng's footsteps landed, he was shocked by the search sounds from the guards around him.

He quickly grabbed Xiao Xi'er's wrist: "Come with me!"

His strong and firm wrists gave Xiao Xi'er a strong sense of security.

She had secretly watched his triumphant return countless times, and had secretly admired and loved him countless times. But she never imagined that she would be able to follow the person she loved into such a thrilling game!
