The man was startled when she woke up, and then he squeezed her neck fiercely and said,

"Where is the map Long Ying gave you?"

"What map?"

She blinked in confusion. Where did Long Ying give her any blueprints? What was he talking about? She slapped his hand hard, trying to break free, but his strength was too great.

The force coming from her neck made her want to cry. She struggled to spit out a few words.

"Wh …" What blueprint? I... True... I don't know what you're talking about! "

That person ruthlessly increased the strength in his hands as he glared at her.

"Stop playing dumb, quickly take it out!"

This time, she could not even speak and could only shake her head with a flushed face. She really did not know what he was talking about.

Was that the map he wanted? Swallowing his saliva and wanting to explain something to that person, a cold slap was thrown right at her face. She screamed out instinctively as stars appeared in her eyes and something salty seemed to flash across her mouth.

It was a good thing that the scream had alarmed the person inside. Otherwise, she really didn't know what kind of violence this man could do to her. She initially wanted to ask him if he wanted that trick, but even if she beat him to death, she wouldn't let him succeed.

The stinging pain on his face was accompanied by the buzzing in his ears. Qiu Ye covered his face and endured the anger in his eyes as he glared at the violent man.

The man was furious that he hadn't gotten what he wanted, but now that his actions had been noticed, he glared at her and pulled her roughly out of the car.

Autumn Leaf's arms were tied behind her back, and because she was being dragged around by him, she was always stumbling and following behind him.

However, just as they reached the entrance of the warehouse, they saw a black car speeding over. It only stopped when it reached their side. The man didn't even have time to react before he was knocked to the ground by the man from the car, followed by a series of fierce kicks and punches.

He tore off the rope tied around her hand, and pulled the petite figure into his embrace. He hugged her tightly, hugged her tightly, and hugged her fiercely. Autumn Leaf felt as if all her bones were hurting.

"Zhuang …" "Sob, sob …"

Leaning into the thick and warm embrace and smelling that familiar scent, Autumn Leaf pursed her lips, tears gathering in her big eyes, but she resisted the urge to let them fall. She didn't want him to be exposed to others, so she laughed at the woman who left him in the village for being a crybaby, and even more so for being a coward.

"Mu Rong Hai, you bastard!"

Zhuang Shili looked down at the little woman in his arms and could not help but be furious. Earlier, when he saw that petite figure being rudely pulled by someone from afar, he really wanted to kill that person.

Now that he looked carefully, there were five bright red fingerprint marks imprinted on that white face! Her rough thumb clumsily cut across his swollen cheek, causing her to frown and tremble slightly. The fire in his heart could not help but grow stronger.

Autumn Leaf lowered her eyes, unwilling to raise them to look at him. She was afraid that the tears in her eyes would be uncontrollable. However, when the slightly rough fingers gently caressed his face, it was unknown if it was pain or what it was. The tears that he had endured for a long time immediately surged down like a dam that had been cut off.

"Obediently wait for me at the side!"

Zhuang Shili spoke softly in a rare moment. He pushed her back a little and turned his head to look at Mu Rong Hai. His gaze instantly turned dark and cold.

On the other side, Mu Rong Hai clearly saw the wounds on Autumn Leaf's face. He glared angrily at the subordinate who was just beaten up by the manor.

"Young Master Zhuang, you might have misunderstood. I did not order my subordinates to make a move on him!"

"Humph!"

Zhuang Shili snorted coldly. His gloomy expression scared everyone.

"You dare to order them to attack? Anyway, it was your man who did it! Since you are so heartless first, then don't blame me for leaving you behind! "

Mu Rong Hai, Long Ying and the three lackeys fiercely looked at them with ice-cold eyes. Mo Mo Mo raised his wrist to look at the device on the surface and said,

"Today, none of you will be able to escape!"

Afterwards, he took off his jacket and threw it ruthlessly on the ground. Besides Autumn Leaf, everyone else's expression changed.

Everyone in the Ultimate Dao Realm knew that Zhuang Shili was ruthless and merciless. Everyone knew that no one in the dark powers could touch him! Everyone knew even more that if Zhuang Shili said he wanted you to die, you would definitely not see the sun tomorrow!

Even if they managed to escape with their lives today, in the future, they wouldn't be able to escape the global wanted posters of the Dragon Gate. Even if they managed to escape with their lives today, in the future, they wouldn't be able to escape the global wanted posters of the Dragon Gate.

"Mu Rong Hai, didn't you want to fight with me one on one? Then I'll put you down first! "

Zhuang Shili smirked as he got into a fighting position. On the other side, Mu Rong Hai also seemed to be on the line. He took off his jacket and attacked when he was about to leave the residence.

"Zhuang!"

Autumn Leaf cried out in alarm as she covered her mouth. Had he forgotten that her injuries had not healed yet? How can you fight like this!

"Hey!" Stop fighting! Stop fighting! "

She used all her strength to shout at the two men outside the circle, but they could not hear her in the midst of the battle. The flames of war were still burning fiercely, showing no signs of stopping.

Long Ying, who was standing not far away with a pale face, raised her eyes and looked deeply at Autumn Leaf who was shouting. Suddenly, she walked towards her, and Autumn Leaf anxiously grabbed her.

"Miss Long, hurry up and persuade them not to hit you. You should know that the injury of the manor is not yet healed!"

"I'm sorry, Lin Qiuye, we only want to keep our lives right now!"

Long Ying lightly said, and then sharply pulled her over, her fingers quickly grabbing onto her throat as she yelled.

"Zhuang Shili!"

As a member of the Dragon Gate, she possessed exceptional martial skills as well. She was more than enough to suppress an unarmed little girl like Autumn Leaf.

Within the battle circle, Zhuang Xiang saw that Long Ying had restrained Autumn Leaf and his handsome face was suddenly filled with dissatisfaction towards Ice and Frost. His underling's movements also gradually eased up until he and Mu Rong Hai had both left the battle circle.

Both of them were more or less injured to some extent. Autumn Leaf could vaguely see that his abdomen was bleeding. She didn't know if it was a new injury or the recurrence of the old injury.

Long Ying held the autumn leaf in one hand and then shouted hysterically.

"Zhuang Shili, please let us go! Otherwise, even if I die, I will drag him down with me! "

Without saying a word, Zhuang Shili looked at Long Ying and the Autumn Leaf in her hands in a deadpan manner. It was as if he was measuring the value of her and Murong Hai, or perhaps it was more accurate to say, the value of Autumn Leaf.

Feeling his sinister and cold gaze on her, Long Ying couldn't help but shiver, the hand holding Autumn Leaf was also shaking slightly, while Autumn Leaf was looking at him with an anxious and worried expression. She was only thinking about his injuries, and didn't notice his abnormally cold gaze at all.

"Alright!"

He tried his best to endure the pain in his abdomen so that no one could see through his weakness, but Zhuang Shili gritted his teeth and coldly said, "Damn, how could I forget that Long Ying is also an excellent person!"

Cold sweat oozed out of his forehead, and the wound on his abdomen seemed to have opened up even more. However, he still calmly pulled open the corner of his mouth.

"I promise to let you go, but …" What you have done has already offended the interests of the State of Yue. Whether or not their people will let you off is none of my business. I heard that they will find us here soon! "

"Good!" Zhuang Shili! As long as you say those words! "

When Mu Rong Hai heard this, he immediately called his men to retreat to Long Ying's side. After hearing Zhuang Shili's words of agreement, Long Ying also slowly let go of Autumn Leaf.

"Let's go!"

Zhuang Shili said that he would let them go, and no one would dare to do anything to them unless they wanted to go against the Dragon Gate.

"Zhuang!"

As soon as he was released, Autumn Leaf impatiently charged forward.

The wound on his abdomen hadn't healed yet, so the closer she got to him, the more she could see the fine beads of sweat on his forehead. She couldn't help but worry so much that her feet became increasingly anxious as she ran towards him.

However, when she was just a few steps away from running towards him, she saw the man who had been lying on the ground suddenly get up. In his hand was a black pistol, which he pointed at Zhuang Shili, who had his back to the door.

Seeing him in such a dangerous situation, she felt an inexplicable feeling surge up from her heart, causing her to panic. Her feet couldn't help but stagger, and before she could even think about it, her body had already begun to move.

"Zhuang!" "Be careful!"

She let out a shout, then closed her eyes and rushed forward with all her might. Finally, before the sound of the gunshot could be heard, she threw herself behind him and held him between him and the bullet.

An ear-piercing gunshot rang out in the empty warehouse. A heart-wrenching pain came from his shoulder. Autumn Leaf's vision turned black, and her body slumped backwards.

Zhuang Shili was shocked by the sudden turn of events. When he turned around, he saw blood spurting out from the woman's shoulder and she slowly fell backwards.

"Autumn Leaf …"
