Chapter 424: Chapter 424: Climbing Over the Wall

Although Ariel wasn’t afraid of the height at all, the feeling of being held in someone’s palms was still very gratifying for her. Ariel nodded and let out a meow-like hum.

Xu Ke first examined the wall’s design with his eyes and noticed that the wall surface wasn’t entirely smooth; it had some protruding features. Xu Ke used these protrusions to glide down smoothly, his footsteps light without alarming anyone.

Seeing no one around after a quick survey, Xu Ke gestured to Ariel on the third floor.

Standing on the floor above, Ariel’s lips curled into a smile, her eyes bright, as she mimicked Xu Ke’s earlier movements to reach the ground.

"Follow me, I know a shortcut here that can lead us directly out. I’ve hidden a vehicle at the foot of the mountain, we can use it to drive down when the time comes," Ariel said cautiously as she held Xu Ke’s hand.

Xu Ke raised an eyebrow and nodded with interest, a hint of inexplicable excitement in his eyes. It was his first time experiencing something where everything was meticulously arranged by someone else; all he needed to do was follow the other’s rhythm. Xu Ke felt no dissatisfaction at all, in fact, a peculiar excitement was faintly kindled in him, one that ignited all the blood in his veins.

Throughout the journey, Ariel was like a radar, perfectly avoiding all dangers. This effortless journey was incredible, it was at this moment that Xu Ke realized just how nimble Ariel’s movements were. She was like a cat, moving without making a single sound, her agility and grace reaching their peak.

"This is the last barrier. Beyond this wall is the back mountain, which is all forest. My vehicle is hidden in those woods. With it, we can take the back roads and save about ten minutes compared to the main road," Ariel whispered as she pushed aside the leaves blocking her view.
