With a route planned, Qin Lu and Nan Yan swiftly set out. However, they were soon pursued by a guard. They managed to outpace the guard and broke into a room.
Inside the room, they encountered a man who looked at them with confusion. Qin Lu acted swiftly, restraining him and muffling any attempts to raise an alarm.
Meanwhile, Nan Yan proceeded to insert some needles into his body. The man screamed in agony, bewildered by the pain.
"There are two paths in front of you now. Which one do you want to choose?"
Nan Yan twirled a silver needle between her fingers. Her beautiful face was filled with an evil coldness and threat as she looked at him with a smile that was not a smile.
The man was speechless.
He wanted to know which two paths he could choose first.
"Either you take the initiative to tell us your identity, be obedient, and help us send away the people who came to search for us, or you die."
