As Yingyi moved, Yuying followed closely behind, walking with a leisurely yet inexplicably calm and elegant gait.
Like a master controlling the whole situation, he followed Shadow One out of the dark room.
As the heavy, sturdy door to the dark room slowly closed, it made a dull, resonant sound.
It was as if a barrier, separating the hustle and bustle of the world from the silence of the dark room, had suddenly fallen, completely separating the chaos of the world from the deathly stillness of the dark room.
The room fell into a deathly silence once again, with only a lingering chill, like a ghost, quietly spreading through the air.
It relentlessly eroded every inch of space, turning the entire darkroom into a cold tomb.
Su Jinyun waited quietly for a while longer. She sat there like a statue, listening intently to even the slightest sound outside the door.
Every movement of air, every extremely subtle sound, was captured by her keen hearing.
Confirming that there was no sound at all, it was as if the whole world had fallen into an eternal slumber, utterly silent.
Only then did he secretly gather his strength, his aura flowing quietly like an undercurrent beneath a calm lake.
With his profound inner strength, he easily broke free from the ropes that seemed to bind him but had become fragile and useless after Yu Ying loosened her bonds.
The rope snapped with a soft "poof" sound.
In this eerily quiet, dark room, it stood out starkly and clearly, like an exclamation mark breaking the silence.
She slowly lowered her head, her gaze gently yet solemnly falling on the brocade box she held tightly in her hand.
For a moment, her thoughts were tangled up like a jumbled mess, her eyes revealing a hint of solemnity and contemplation, as if she had fallen into a deep trance.
The brocade box in her hands felt incredibly heavy, radiating a mysterious and dangerous aura, like a Pandora's box hiding countless secrets.
After all, it came from that mysterious and unpredictable Jade Shadow.
In this perilous and treacherous situation, who can know whether there are deadly traps and dangers lurking within?
Any oversight could be like prey stepping into a trap, bringing utter destruction.
After much deliberation, every thought weighed repeatedly in her mind, as if weighing the weight of life and death on a scale.
Su Jinyun ultimately decided to take the most cautious approach.
She carefully placed the brocade box into her sleeve, her movements gentle and slow.
It was as if that brocade box was a bomb that could explode at any moment, and the slightest carelessness could lead to unpredictable and potentially fatal consequences.
The sleeve seemed to become a mysterious sanctuary, temporarily concealing the secrets and dangers of the brocade box within.
After that, she slowly stood up, her posture elegant yet carrying a hint of vigilance as if facing a formidable enemy.
Like a wary cheetah, it began to carefully examine the small, oppressive, and dark room.
Her gaze was piercing, as if it could penetrate the darkness and sweep across the surrounding walls inch by inch.
The walls were cold and hard, with a dull luster, like the vicissitudes of time, as if silently telling countless untold stories.
The ground is flat yet rough, and every texture seems to have been crushed by the wheels of history, recording the joys and sorrows that once happened here.
However, she searched the entire dark room but found no other way to escape except for the tightly closed secret door that exuded a mysterious aura.
The four walls were like an airtight cage, tightly imprisoning her inside.
It gave her a sense of oppression, as if she had been abandoned by the world, and she could feel the heavy constraint in the air with every breath.
Seeing this situation, Su Jinyun felt somewhat helpless, but years of experience made her quickly accept reality and understand that continuing to search would be futile.
She slowly walked to the wall and sat down, her movements seemingly carrying a sense of helplessness in the face of temporary resignation to fate.
She sat quietly on the ground, her back against the cold wall, letting the chill seep into her clothes.
Like countless tiny ice needles, they stimulated her increasingly clear mind.
My mind began to meticulously review everything that had just happened, frame by frame, like a projector.
Every move Yu Ying made, whether it was an unintentional gesture, a meaningful glance, or a single word, was significant.
Whether light or heavy, slow or fast, each moment was like a clear and vivid frame, playing back in her mind like an endless movie.
For some reason, she felt that Yu Ying's voice sounded familiar, as if she had a deeply memorable encounter with this voice in some corner of her memory.
The voice sometimes drifted through her mind like wisps of smoke, carrying a hazy sense of déjà vu.
At other times, it was as clear and loud as a great bell, making her soul tremble.
No matter how hard she racked her brains, as if searching for a glimmer of light in a vast fog, she couldn't remember where she had heard it before.
The voice was like a mystery hidden deep in her memory, waiting for her to unravel it.
Judging from Yu Ying's actions just now, the person she called Ying Yi appeared to be extremely respectful and obedient to her.
Every move he made showed that he was Yu Ying's loyal and devoted subordinate.
However, Su Jinyun, with her keen intuition, sensed that things were not so simple.
When Shadow One was carrying out orders, his seemingly unintentional but subtle actions revealed something strange and peculiar that was hard to describe.
