Yun Bixue's expression froze . The sky was gradually turning dark . She could even hear the howling of the cold wind across the forest . The wind brought bouts of chills, turning her heart frigid . No matter how strong she felt inside, she was still rather fragile facing tonight's mission .
However, she understood that in order to be a Young Madam Xie who deserved her status, she had to possess a relentless and resolute attitude . Otherwise, in this cut-throat world, only one party would survive . If wanted to survive, she had to eliminate her opponents .
Yun Bixue took a deep breath and closed her eyes . When she opened them, her gaze was shining with clarity and determination . "Let's go! Proceed to the safe zone . "
As she spoke, Yun Bixue led Yang Mei, Xie Qi, Xie Ba, and Xie Shiyi . They rushed to the zone where they had previously marked . She tugged on an iron chain at the side, and a few of them immediately fell into a pit that had been dug out earlier .
At the same time, she relayed the orders to carry out the mission . Above them, the sounds of skirmish and gunshots were heard . The battle seemed endless . They could even feel the vibrations underneath the ground .
Yun Bixue's face turned ghastly pale, but her expression remained the same as she clenched her jaw . Her forehead was clammy with sweat, and her heart filled with dread . Despite this, she forced herself to calm down and stay rational . If she didn't go ahead with this mission, her enemies would still find her and take her down .
Xie Qi, Xie Ba, and Xie Shiyi had no idea what their Young Madam was feeling at that moment . Instead, they admired her calmness and quick-wittedness . They could see a glimpse of a qualified future matron from Young Madam .
On the other hand, Yang Mei had been beside Miss Yun all along, so she understood her current predicament . She reached out and clutched Miss Yun's hand, offering her strength and assuring her that she was by her side .
As men of sacrifice, the training that they've received since young had been arduous . That's why the current circumstance was nothing out of the ordinary . On the contrary, the education that Miss Yun received was different from theirs . All things considered, Miss Yun was already doing a terrific job .
At that moment, Yun Bixue desperately wanted to ask about the Yun family's men of sacrifice . If any of them were harmed—or worse, killed—her heart would break . Nonetheless, she knew that she shouldn't ask . She could never ask . She couldn't afford to show grief or pity—they should only be felt in her heart . She had to appear resolute and tough on the surface .
Beside her, Xie Qi, Xie Ba, and Xie Shiyi constantly observed her . If she wanted to become someone whom others would acknowledge as Young Madam Xie, now is the best time to start and make the change .
The men of sacrifice from the Du and Zheng families did not have the slightest clue that Yun Bixue and her companions would vanish under the ground . Instead, all of them were surrounded and slaughtered . Before they could even react in time, they were engaged in an intense massacre .
They had been too focused on their goal of killing Yun Bixue that they had not foreseen the threat of her counterattack . However, it was too late for them to figure it out now .
Time seemed to crawl . They didn't know how much time had passed, but no one spoke at all . They were all in deep thought, conserving their energies . Silence then followed the pandemonium . After a long while, the device in Yang Mei's hands vibrated . She then slowly announced, "Miss Yun, we can go out from that side now . " The place they were in was an extremely confined tunnel that had been dug out at the last minute . Despite the inconvenience, it had ensured their safety .
After a few of them came out of the tunnel, Yun Bixue looked at the marble-white color of the dawn sky, and sucked in a deep breath . Looking forward to a brand new day, she suddenly felt that it was great to be alive . She felt a change within her, as though she had surpassed her previous self .
"Let's have some biscuits first, then continue in that direction . There should be some buildings over there . "
Because Xie Qi, Xie Ba, and Xie Shiyi had drastically changed their impressions of Young Madam, they sensed a deep-rooted resolve to obey her . Therefore, once Yun Bixue spoke, they followed her order and promptly ate the biscuits .
Following a road that was leading to their destination, half an hour had passed, then Xie Qi abruptly held Yun Bixue back . "Young Madam, I sense a killing intent . It's dangerous!"
