Just at this moment, Zi Xia, who was staying in the outer room, heard the commotion and ran over to knock on the door. "Knock, knock, knock...! Young Miss, Young Miss, why is there a noise in your room? Are you alright?"
Taking advantage of the dwarf's agony, Xuexue quickly responded loudly, "There's an assassin in the mansion, hurry and call for people to capture him!"
The dwarf's face was contorted with pain, but upon hearing Xuexue's words, he couldn't afford to linger any longer. With a leap, he escaped hurriedly through the window.
Zi Xia had just wanted to reply, when suddenly, everything blurred, and a shadow streaked right past her...
"Hey, hey...! Assassin... stop right there!"
She reacted quickly and chased after the figure, while shouting at the top of her lungs, "Somebody! Somebody come quickly! There's an assassin!"
The General's Mansion, which had already fallen into deep slumber, was instantly startled awake by the commotion.
