In the cave, when Lu Ye opened his eyes again, Ye Liuli had already fallen heavily asleep against the rock wall. Since Tyrannical Saber Villa had been breached, she had been in a constant state of panic, and after several days of escape with Lu Ye, without a moment of rest, she was already running on fumes.
The girl's face still bore traces of youthfulness, wearing a purple dress. However, the color that should have appeared luxurious was now covered in large patches of dark red, the color of blood. Days without care had left her face dirty and her hair in disarray.
In her sleep, she must have had some troubling dream as her brow was furrowed, her expression tense and uneasy.
In the darkness, she suddenly opened her eyes and met Lu Ye's gaze. Her expression immediately tensed, "Brother Ye Liu..."
"Shh!" Lu Ye put a finger to his lips.
Ye Liuli nodded.
