Ou Keren was tied to the pillar with iron chains by these mercenaries, and the blood on her shoulder had already scabbed over. Fortunately, the injury hadn't reached any critical area. However, due to excessive blood loss, her face was deathly pale at this moment.
She had been unconscious earlier but was startled awake by the sound of gunfire. Seeing Ye Qing running toward her amidst the hail of bullets, she felt both joy and worry. Watching Ye Qing coming closer, she repeatedly shook her head at him, signaling for him to retreat. But Ye Qing had no intention of backing away and ran straight to Wang Yue Pavilion.
Ou Keren's mouth was taped shut, preventing her from speaking. She could only shake her head at Ye Qing with tears in her eyes. Yet Ye Qing seemed to ignore her reaction and rushed straight into the pavilion.
