At this moment, the leading soldier glanced at them, his eyes lingering for a moment, as if he thought there was nothing unusual about this seemingly ordinary couple.
The soldier's gaze shifted elsewhere, continuing to inspect others. Ye Qingchen and Xiao Xiao relaxed internally, keeping their heads low as they slowly walked past the soldier.
Just as Ye Qingchen and Xiao Xiao were about to leave the soldier's line of sight, a deep and stern voice suddenly called out from behind: "You two, stop!"
The sound pierced the air like a sharp sword, instantly tightening Ye Qingchen and Xiao Xiao's chests, as if their hearts were suddenly gripped.
Both of them simultaneously halted their steps, and the world around them seemed to freeze at that moment, with only the soldier's voice echoing in their ears.
Ye Qingchen secretly cursed; he knew that any unnecessary movement now could expose them.
