The girl's voice lingered in their ears for a long time. Eventually, Owl nodded and extended a hand to Xu Xiaoyou, "Welcome to our Dark Night Walker group, I am their leader."
Xu Xiaoyou did not shake hands, her tone ordinary:
"I said I would leave Chichu Heaven after a month. I do not wish to have any connections with you, as they would lead to unnecessary troubles. Both you and I should take what we need and move on."
Owl sighed in response, not saying more.
"A strange person indeed," muttered Night Owl.
As the atmosphere temporarily stalled, with Kuri unsure how to conclude, the sound of the elevator descending from outside reached them. After a 'ding,' the elevator arrived at the third underground level, the green light turning on, causing everyone's brows to furrow slightly. Outside, a man's seductive voice echoed:
"Little ones, such a great guest has arrived at the shop today, and no one even bothered to inform me?"
Xu Xiaoyou's gaze suddenly sharpened, it was Black Spade Q, known as Evergreen Ivy. As expected, the other recognized her. She hid a card labeled [Fireball Bombardment] in her wrist, knowing that such an attack would be ineffective against a Fifth Tier Cleaner but could trigger the fire alarm system above, facilitating her escape.
Kuri noticed Xu Xiaoyou's expression, his eyes slightly moving.
Meanwhile, the door was opened, and besides Evergreen Ivy, another woman dressed in tight attire and possessing fair skin entered. She exuded an icy killing intent, with the prominent symbol of Black Spade K, representing the King of Death!
This woman was also a Fifth Tier Cleaner.
In the cramped room, two Fifth Tier Cleaners gathered, little did they know they were facing the blonde girl who seemed like a notorious Devil.
Xu Xiaoyou's heart was tumultuous, yet her exterior remained calm, giving an appearance of being cool and collected.
"Sister Tao, Evergreen Ivy, you..." Kuri blurted out.
"Little ones, listen to my advice. Wait outside for a bit, we need some alone time with this guest, don't worry, it will be resolved quickly and pleasantly~" Evergreen Ivy licked his lips, sitting on the woman's lap.
"If you dare do anything to You, I swear I won't let you off," Kuri smelled the gunpowder in the air and issued a low threat.
Before anyone could react, the woman waved her hand, and everything inside the room became subject to an invisible force field, in a blink they appeared elsewhere, the door closed heavily with a muffled sound, isolating them outside.
"Tsk." Kuri slapped the iron door, which budged not at all. Her eyes deepened; she had personally designed this secret hideout with excellent soundproofing, even an explosion wouldn't stir a whisper from outside. "You..."
On the side, members of the Dark Night Walker still hadn't grasped the unfolding events, big eyes staring at small ones.
Inside the room, under the scrutiny of two pairs of eyes, Xu Xiaoyou pulled over a chair to sit down, the two exchanged a glance, and the woman spoke first:
"Let's cut to the chase, you might have already guessed our identities. As you see, I am Black Spade King of the Dawn Society, you can call me Tiger Tail Orchid, and he is Evergreen Ivy, the Black Spade Queen of the Dawn Society."
Xu Xiaoyou was overwhelmed by the massive load of information, unable to decide what to say initially. She opened her mouth but chose silence as her spokesperson, her instincts telling her these two Fifth Tier Cleaners were into something peculiar privately.
Tiger Tail Orchid's aura was consistently assertive, her stature might not appear large compared to the man in her embrace, yet she emitted a vibe leaving no room for abnormality, like a monarch of a pride showcasing her conquest spoils. The woman lifted her legs onto the table, looking at Xu Xiaoyou with interest.
"Come to the second floor with me, I'll take good care of you."
Xu Xiaoyou: "?"
"I enjoy bullying the weak, similarly conquering powerful prey attracts me more now compared to initially, triggering my urge to conquer, Dark Gold Rose."
Upon hearing this name, Xu Xiaoyou's pupils constricted, but she camouflaged her instinctive reaction with a blink. She remained silent, awaiting further information from the two.
With a lifted tone, Evergreen Ivy said: "The core technology mastered by the Dawn Society is the Time Reversal Protocol. Everything on that island has been restored and backtracked by us long ago. I have to admit, your disguise was quite well done, the name of Dark Gold Rose is almost buzzing outside, but it can't escape us owning the core technology."
"Outside, Dark Gold Rose?" Xu Xiaoyou frowned.
"Wait, you didn't know..." Evergreen Ivy was about to speak when Tiger Tail Orchid slapped his hip hard.
"You want to say more than me?" Tiger Tail Orchid shouted, "Shut up unless you're authorized to speak!"
Evergreen Ivy groaned, silently curling into the woman's embrace without a word.
"So, you still don't know what's happening outside?" Tiger Tail Orchid tilted her lips.
"That video has spread like wildfire outside, almost everyone within the association has seen the powerful stance of the mysterious Dark Gold Rose during battle. If not for you severely injuring the Siren King, Ghost couldn't have disposed of that guy so easily."
"Video?" Xu Xiaoyou realized others were present at the time besides her and Anya, capturing the scene of her using [Bad Girl Workshop].
"Rumor has it that it took merely a day from reporting your name to the Elder Council until those ancient ones decided to endow decisions based on Dark Gold Rose's name. Seems like you have some unknown past, but you appear pitifully weak now," Tiger Tail Orchid glanced at Xu Xiaoyou.
If not witnessed with their own eyes, they wouldn't believe the renowned Light Prism Tier Cleaner was the petite, slender blonde girl before them, her aura merely reaching the Three Tier.
This fellow must have suffered some severe injury, leading to her current frail state. Perhaps in the pre-New Era Calendar's old times, she along with other Light Prism Tier Cleaners were active in the world's forefront but fell into slumber for some reason, their names erased by the association, only to awaken now, this shadow of the old era starting anew to reflect the world's radiance, valued by the association.
The duo speculated, never considering the existence itself of Dark Gold Rose might be erroneous.
"So, what is your purpose in seeking me?" Xu Xiaoyou tiredly lifted her eyes, noting the two's expressions, deducing they harbored no suspicion towards her.
"Aside from the Dawn Society, currently, no one outside knows your true identity; we're all under strict confidentiality, don't worry."
"As for the purpose."
Evergreen Ivy and Tiger Tail Orchid exchanged glances, smiling in a suspicious manner, filled with ill intentions.
"Come to the second floor with me."
"Become a Green Leaf in the Mint Green Leaf Store and serve those beautiful ladies, experience a man's Leaf Dao."
