When Han Xiaowen and others reached closer to the stairs on the tenth floor, she noticed a figure.
And this figure belonged to someone who she might not really forget as easily as a passerby.
"It's him!"
She muttered to herself before rushing along with her mother and others.
"Ma'am, there is someone up there."
One of the guards who had rushed ahead whispered.
"Don't do anything that will make them harm her."
Li Zhiyun breathed out a sigh of relief.
Now that they had found someone it was also likely that they would find her sister soon as well.
"Mom, that person there..."
Han Xiaowen tried to get her mother's attention but Li Zhiyun shook her head.
"It's alright Wenwen, we will get your aunt back in no time."
Saying that she pulled her daughter along.
Meanwhile, behind them, a couple of guards panted heavily.
"God, what did these women eat, don't they get tired?"
Of course, they were not going to wonder this out aloud, but this was the only question they could think of.
With Han Xiaowen, they could somehow understand, but Li Zhiyun's condition had completely left them baffled.
In fact, they could also somewhat feel that Li Zhiyun was even faster and more agile than her daughter.
"Get ready everyone, we might be forced to use ammunition."
The guard leading the others whispered.
If Li Feiyun was completely fine and she was away from the kidnappers and was not used as a hostage they would try to grope the guys as soon as possible.
The others nodded while rushing to the above floor without trying to make even the smallest amount of sound to alarm the person.
Meanwhile, in the staircase from where the shrieks had originated a few moments ago.
All Ye Qian did was crush the can of sleeping spray and then everything happened all by itself.
There was quite a loud sound of the can being crushed as the chemicals inside escaped and turned into mist in just a blink of an eye and surrounded almost everyone present there, including him.
But even now, there was little to no effect on Ye Qian other than his nose twitching due to the disgusting smell that was released from the chemical.
The reason why he was not affected by the sleepy chemical and didn't fall unconscious was due to his Spiritual Body.
The moment the chemical had entered his system, it had been destroyed within his body and flushed out through his pores in just a matter of a fraction of a second.
Other than the smell that had made him feel as if it would have been better if he didn't have a nose, Ye Qian had not even sensed the chemical that was used for making one unconscious.
In fact, even if the guy had sprayed the whole can before Ye Qian there would have been little to no change in Ye Qian.
Of course, other than him being irritated for being made to sniff the awful smell.
"That smell is even worse than the goo of muck-dwellers."
Ye Qian flinched as he turned to the wall where he had sensed the woman for quite a while.
Right after the spray can was crushed by him the four men didn't even have the chance to look for something in order to cover their mouths before they all slumped on the ground with a loud thud after they shrieked.
And with that Ye Qian didn't need to give them any attention either.
And nor did he care to help them.
In fact, even if he wanted to, he knew that it was a troublesome thing for him and he would need to expend quite an amount of Spiritual Qi if he wanted to flush out the toxic chemicals from their lungs.
And no matter how good he was, Ye Qian didn't have the heart to help someone who had wanted to make him sleep all his life.
These people were both good either way, so he didn't even feel a bit of pity for them
He had seen the fear and shock on their faces right when they had tried to hold their breaths the moment the ban was crushed in his palm.
But deep within he felt that they deserved it and he should not help them as well.
He brought back his attention while facing the wall.
The wall was nothing but a hard plate that was screwed.
In fact, these kinds of plates were screwed throughout the staircase.
Since there was rarely anyone who would use the staircase it was the best way.
Ye Qian stared at the wall for a moment, before he closed his eyes.
"They are coming right here, but I doubt that they would know of this hidden compartment."
He muttered before focusing on the person inside the compartment.
Her breathing seemed to be slow, but Ye Qian could still sense that there was nothing wrong with her body and the amount of sleeping chemicals used upon her was also quite low.
"She would be able to wake up in a couple of hours"
Ye Qian thought before he extended his hand towards the screws.
"TICK"
A few ticking sounds of something being snapped were heard, and the heads of the screws were broken with Ye Qian's mere fingers.
"Hmm, now it would not be troublesome even if they arrived."
Ye Qian nodded as he held the two sides of the plate intending to open it.
"Wait!"
And that was when he heard a loud shout from behind.
And pretty soon enough, things happened a tad bit similar to what he had imagined.
"Who are you?"
The guards circled him from the other side while pointing their guns.
Of course, these guns were not the ones with real bullets.
But still, they were enough to make someone immobilized if they were to be hit by one of its bullets.
"Hold your weapons, what are you doing here?"
But that was when the guards heard a command for them and they could only agree to it without daring to defy it.
