Me? I was transported into a book? And I became a vicious villain?

After Chu Yunyao and Aunt Zhao left the banquet, they did not return to their rooms, but went straight to a hidden house outside the mansion. This was their secret base for contacting the "Shadow Alliance".

"Snapped!"

Aunt Zhao smashed the teacup in her hand in a rage, the tea splashed everywhere, and the fragments flew everywhere. "This Chu Mengmeng is simply too much!"

"Auntie, calm down." Chu Yunyao, who had been silent all this time, was surprisingly calm at this moment. "We still have a chance. The Shadow Alliance will definitely do what it promised us."

Aunt Zhao raised her head, a hint of viciousness flashed in her eyes: "You are right, as long as Chu Mengmeng dies, everything will be over. By then, I wonder who will believe her nonsense!"

As night fell, the entire Xiao Mansion was shrouded in silence. In Chu Mengmeng's room, there was only a dim candlelight flickering slightly.

Suddenly, a shadow flashed outside the window, and then several men in black quietly sneaked into the room. Holding sharp blades, with cold murderous intent flashing in their eyes, they slowly approached the bed.

However, just when they were about to succeed, the door was suddenly kicked open!

"Who is it?!" The man in black was startled and turned around quickly, only to see Xiao Yichen and Su Mubai standing at the door, staring at them with gloomy faces.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass into the Xiao Mansion?!" Xiao Yichen shouted sternly.

The man in black ignored his questioning, but exchanged glances with each other, then swung the sharp blade in his hand and attacked Xiao Yichen and Su Mubai.

"court death!"

Xiao Yichen and Su Mubai were prepared, and as soon as they moved, they were entangled with the man in black. With swords flashing and murderous intent in the air, a fierce battle broke out in an instant.

The sound of swords clashing alarmed the nearby guards. They rushed over, only to find that the men in black were very skilled in martial arts and were no match for them.

"Go and tell the master and mistress that there is an assassin!"

As soon as the captain of the guard finished speaking, a slender figure suddenly rushed out from the crowd and headed straight for the center of the battle.

"Mengmeng, it's dangerous!" Xiao Yichen was horrified and wanted to stop it but it was too late.

Chu Mengmeng was agile and dodged the attack of the men in black. She snatched the sword from the guard's hand and pointed the tip of the sword at one of the men in black.

"Tell me, who sent you here?"

The man in black obviously didn't expect Chu Mengmeng to suddenly attack. He was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "Want to know? Go to hell and ask the King of Hell!"

After saying this, he was ready to mobilize the internal Qi in his body and explode his meridians.

"Not good!" Xiao Yichen was shocked when he saw this, but it was too late to stop it.

At this critical moment, Chu Mengmeng shook her wrist, and the tip of the sword accurately pierced the acupoints of the man in black, blocking his movements.

The man in black widened his eyes in disbelief. He had never imagined that this seemingly weak woman could possess such powerful martial arts skills.

"Tell me, who are you? Why do you want to kill me?" Chu Mengmeng asked.

The man in black clenched his teeth and refused to utter a word.

"You won't tell me?" Chu Mengmeng sneered, "Then don't blame me for being rude!"

She exerted a little force on the sword in her hand, and the man in black suddenly felt a piercing pain and could not help but groan.

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you!" The man in black finally couldn't bear it anymore and begged for mercy, "We are from the Shadow Alliance. Someone paid us to kill you."

"'Shadow Alliance'? Why do they want to kill me?" Chu Mengmeng asked.

The man in black hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "They said... that you are the 'key'. If we kill you, we can... we can control the entire era of reverse evolution..."

"Control the era of reverse evolution?" Chu Mengmeng murmured to herself, her heart full of doubts, "What kind of organization is the 'Shadow Alliance'? Why do they want to control the era of reverse evolution? I have no grudges against them, why do they want to kill me?"

She turned to look at Xiao Yichen with a firm look in her eyes: "Yichen, I want to find out the details of the Shadow Alliance. I want to know why they want to kill me and why they want to control the era of reverse evolution!"

Xiao Yichen held Chu Mengmeng's hand, his eyes firm: "Mengmeng, I will investigate with you." Su Mubai also stepped forward, patted his chest and assured: "And me, I will go back and mobilize all my connections to get to the bottom of the Shadow Alliance!"

Chu Mengmeng looked at them gratefully, and felt relieved. At this time, Lin Wan'er came over, her eyebrows slightly frowned, and her worry was evident in her words: "Mengmeng, this matter may not be simple. The Shadow Alliance acts in a secretive way and has a huge influence. Even the government is afraid of them. You must be careful."

"Wan'er, don't worry, I won't be impulsive." Chu Mengmeng understood Lin Wan'er's concerns. She has always been meticulous. Since this matter is not simple, the water behind the "Shadow Alliance" must be unfathomable.

Lin Wan'er nodded and took out a jade pendant from her sleeve: "This is the information I got by chance. It is said to be related to the 'Shadow Alliance'. Take it, it may be helpful."

Chu Mengmeng took the jade pendant. It was warm to the touch and had a strange pattern carved on it. She had never seen such a pattern before, but it looked familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before. Before she could think about it, the jade pendant suddenly emitted a dazzling golden light. Chu Mengmeng's mind suddenly exploded, and some unfamiliar fragments of images flashed before her eyes...

"Ah!" Chu Mengmeng hugged her head in pain. The fragments of the images were disorganized, but gave her an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if they were sealed in a corner deep in her memory and were now forcibly opened. The severe pain almost made her faint.

"Meng Meng!" Xiao Yichen quickly supported her and asked anxiously, "What's wrong with you? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Chu Mengmeng shook her head, her face pale and sweaty. She tried hard to calm her surging blood and it took a long time for her to recover.

"I'm fine." Chu Mengmeng took a deep breath and looked at the jade pendant in her hand. Her eyes became complicated. "This jade pendant..."

Before she could finish, a dark shadow suddenly fell from the sky and landed in front of them.

"Miss, the master invites you." The man was dressed in black, with his face covered. His voice was low and hoarse, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

Chu Mengmeng was shocked, and an ominous premonition came to her mind.
