Du Mingxian reached out to untie Ling Silang's clothes, then glanced at the other people in the room. By now, they were all staring at Du Mingxian, some pleading, some with eager eyes, and some with fear and terror.

"Untie them, I'll go out and check."

Ling Silang, disgusted with his own uselessness, said, "Be careful."

Du Mingxian had already quietly gone out. After she left, she covered her face slightly before hurriedly going to the next room.

Inside the room, four men... were playing with two of them.

The girl's eyes were numb, and two of them were holding whips and lashing her; the scene was quite chaotic.

This time, Du Mingxian used a gun directly. After kicking the door open, she took care of the people with a few shots. She then stepped forward, pulled out the tranquilizer dart, and quickly slit the necks of several people.

She was thinking that once she got out, she would definitely find an opportunity to buy more muscle relaxants, poisons, and other things that were only available in this era.

Two girls, one of them was already staring wide-eyed, looking strange. Du Mingxian reached out to touch her... but she was already dead, her eyes wide open in death.

"Are you alright? I'll take you away." Du Mingxian stepped forward and tried to help the girl up, but the girl rolled her eyes and sat up with Du Mingxian's help. When she saw the people lying on the ground, tears streamed down her face.

Her eyes were no longer numb; she looked at Du Mingxian with joy in them. "Thank you, thank you," she said, her voice particularly hoarse.

"Don't speak, I'll take you out."

"No, don't touch me, I'm dirty, don't get your hands dirty."

Du Mingxian didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Young lady, can you do me a favor?"

"You said."

The girl reached for her clothes, turned them inside out, and tore a hole in the hem to reveal a small safety buckle inside.

It's a very beautiful safety buckle, half green and half purple, with patterns on it; it's definitely a good item.

The item was sewn onto the clothes with a needle. The girl untied the thread and handed over the safety buckle. "This is mine. Please give it to my mother and tell her I regret it."

Du Mingxian hesitated for a moment before taking the item. "If you can read, it would be best to write a letter. I... can pass it on. Just letting me take this verbally is not very credible."

The girl looked around, and Du Mingxian handed her a white handkerchief.

The girl bit her finger and quickly wrote in blood, her expression resolute.

This was the first time in Du Mingxian's two lifetimes that she had ever seen a finger bitten through... a chunk of flesh was bitten through, which showed that the girl was determined to die.

"Thank you. I am Wen Ruyan, the daughter of Minister Wen of the capital."

Du Mingxian gasped in shock. The daughter of a vice minister had fallen to such a state?

"you……"

"I can't go back, I don't want to go back." The girl kept shaking her head. "Could you give me the knife you have?"

"it is good."

Du Mingxian took out a dagger from her spatial storage and handed it to the girl. "It's better to live a wretched life than to die. Actually... actually you could..."

"No, there's no going back. I killed these people. You should leave, leave now."

Du Mingxian didn't move, but the girl went berserk and started stabbing wildly at the corpse. She didn't even care that she wasn't wearing any clothes and just kept stabbing.

After stabbing the four corpses, she finally plunged the dagger into her own heart and fell down with a smile on her face.

Du Mingxian picked up a piece of clothing and draped it over the two girls. They were younger than her and should have been enjoying their happy lives at home, eventually finding a suitable husband to marry.

Unexpected...

Ling Silang appeared at the door and saw the corpses all over the ground. He saw Du Mingxian standing there in a daze and hurriedly stepped forward. "I've already let them leave. Let's go too."

"it is good."

Du Mingxian left together with Ling Silang.

After the two left the courtyard, they hurriedly ran outside. They hadn't gone far when they saw... a corpse lying on the ground ahead. It was the person that Ling Silang had untied the ropes to help them escape.

Not one was missing; they were all dead there, each with arrows stuck in their body.

Du Mingxian's face turned pale instantly. She hurriedly shielded Ling Silang behind her, and Ling Silang also looked around warily.

"Crack, snap."

Suddenly someone clapped. Du Mingxian turned around and saw a middle-aged man looking at them with amusement. Suddenly, a number of people appeared around them, all dressed in black, holding arrows and aiming them at them.

Seeing this scene, Du Mingxian gripped Ling Silang's hand tightly, ready to bring him into the space at any moment.

As if knowing her intentions, Ling Silang released her hand and stepped forward calmly, giving the leading man a scholarly bow. "Sir, may I ask if there is any grudge between us?"

"A scholar? That's good." The man became increasingly interested.

"My wife and I were just passing by. We didn't give the beggars any food in the dilapidated temple, so they grabbed us and brought us here. We're just ordinary people and have never hurt anyone. We didn't know you were..."

The man's smile, which had been playing on his lips, vanished. "You released the people inside? You killed our people too?"

“We released them, but we didn’t kill them,” Ling Silang explained carefully. “It was a girl inside.”

“My men have already investigated. If it really is a girl inside, I will let you go.”

"Thank you, sir." After saying that, Ling Silang simply stopped talking and stood there. Du Mingxian wanted to pull him, ready to enter the space at any time, but Ling Silang avoided her and prevented her from touching him.

Du Mingxian knew that Ling Silang didn't want her space to be exposed and planned to use him to save her life.

They haven't learned their lesson. We agreed to discuss things together, but now they're acting on their own again.

Soon, the person who went in to investigate came out and recounted the situation inside.

The leader was furious when he heard that his subordinates had gotten into trouble while playing around with women. "I told them not to mess around outside. Did they just ignore me?"

While the man was reprimanding his subordinate, Ling Silang whispered in Du Mingxian's ear, "Go into your spatial dimension."

Du Mingxian got angry too. She turned around and glared at him, then simply turned her head and took a step back, ignoring him.

The leader's eyes were fierce and full of anger. "Did you kill my men?"

"It's me." Du Mingxian stepped forward, fully alert.

"She's somewhat attractive. Take her away. Tonight, let the brothers take turns on her until she dies. It'll be revenge for our fallen brothers."

Du Mingxian was shocked. Ling Silang stepped forward to protect her, saying, "We have no grudge against you, so why are you making things difficult for us?"

"Hmph, why didn't you consider this when you injured my subordinates?"

"Your subordinates are selfish and incompetent. What good can such subordinates bring you? Sooner or later they will ruin your important plans. You should be glad that we dealt with the unqualified subordinates for you directly."
