"Do you even care about your life?!"

The bamboo grove outside the window swayed rapidly, and several bamboo leaves drifted down from the air.

The voice carried an invisible stream of air that condensed into a white shadow, which landed in front of the person opposite who was clutching their arm.

Yin Huaizhu calmly rolled up the sleeve of her left hand and untied the silk handkerchief wrapped around her forearm.

The silk handkerchief, which should have been dark green, was now stained dark with blood.

The original color of the silk handkerchief was no longer discernible.

As the silk handkerchief slowly slipped down.

The scene that unfolded before our eyes was shocking.

A bloody gash was exposed.

Yin Huaizhu's fair forearm was exposed to the air, with a hideous wound running across it.

The blood that had been stopped by the silk handkerchief was now seeping out of the wound.

"If I say no, will you just leave me alone?" Yin Huaizhu smiled bitterly, looking at the man in front of her with his brows furrowed.

Back when he was training at his family's overseas base, everyone there had to go on a mission once a month.

Only those who return with the designated item are qualified to remain inside and compete for the highest position.

Those who couldn't come back were already dead.

The training inside is cruel and cold-blooded. Even if you are from the same family, what does it matter if you are cousins ​​with blood ties?

Prioritizing the interests of the family.

The head of the family doesn't need much emotion.

Of all the people here, only one can survive in the end!

Because the family doesn't need too many ambitious people.

It's like raising Gu poison. You put all these creatures of the same kind in a jar and let them kill each other. Only the final victor will be the Gu King!

The Gu King does not tolerate competitors or threats.

He was fifteen years old when he carried out that mission.

This was also the last mission.

Only he and another cousin, who was five years older than him, remained.

Unlike usual, this time they were after the same thing.

He thought he was going to die there during that mission…

Yin Huaizhu collapsed to the ground in a disheveled state, struggling to prop herself up, blood already uncontrollably gushing from the corner of her mouth.

A flash of cold light appeared before his eyes, his pupils dilated, and the tip of the knife was about to pierce his chest!

Yin Huaizhu quickly raised her arm to try and block!

Just when Yin Huaizhu thought she was going to die here today.

The beads on her raised wrist moved slightly.

Immediately afterwards.

A strong gust of wind suddenly rose up!

It blocked the knife tip that was about to pierce his heart.

The invisible wind suddenly formed a visible vortex, blocking Yin Huaizhu's heart!

Yin Huaizhu had no time to ponder this strange phenomenon. Seeing the astonishment in the other person's eyes, she dodged the blade without hesitation and killed him in retaliation!

The person opposite him had disbelief in their eyes until the very moment they fell to the ground.

When Yin Huaizhu staggered and stood up again,

A white figure appeared in that invisible wind.

"I promised her I would protect you as you grow up."

At that time, he was still a child.

But later, he became the head of the Yin family when he was eighteen years old.

Bai Ying said, "I promised her I would protect you for fifteen years."

However, fifteen years passed quickly, and Yin Huaizhu could no longer wear that cracked bead.

But the white figure still did not leave.

Five years passed just like that.

He still didn't leave.

When the fifteen-year agreement was up, Yin Huaizhu asked Bai Ying why she hadn't left yet.

Bai Ying said, "I'm waiting for someone."

Yin Huaizhu pressed further, "Do you know where she is?"

Bai Ying shook her head: "I don't know."

Yin Huaizhu asked anxiously, "Then do you know how to find her?"

The white shadow fell silent; it remained silent for a long time.

Just when Yin Huaizhu thought he would never speak again.

Bai Ying said, "She is a demon, a demon that vanishes without a trace."

Yin Huaizhu clenched her fists, her hands trembling.

Bai Ying then said, "I know a forbidden technique that can summon demons."

This was something it heard from a monk who was passing by the pond when it was a ghost.

"On the night of the full moon, blood is offered as a sacrifice, and..."

At this point, Bai Ying hesitated.

Yin Huaizhu was so insightful.

"Is there some other price to pay?"

Bai Ying couldn't resist the determination in Yin Huaizhu's eyes. Ever since he took control of the family and the group, he had stood at the top.

Year after year, she did not return.

Yin Huaizhu searched the world for him, even thinking he wasn't dazzling enough, so he went abroad to look for him.

Another year has passed.

Yin Huaizhu frantically searched for all sorts of people who could summon ghosts and spirits.

Everything I did while waiting for her to come back.

These white figures saw it all.

The white figure finally spoke slowly...

Looking at the scars on Yin Huaizhu's arm from the dagger, there were as many as ten.

Once every six months, twice a year.

Bai Ying sighed helplessly, "I shouldn't have taught you this forbidden technique in the first place."

Yin Huaizhu lowered her head, took out the medicine box, and skillfully cleaned the wound.

"Even if you hadn't told me back then, I would have done it sooner or later."

The white shadow opened its mouth, as if it had thought of something, and turned its head away from looking at Yin Huaizhu, whose arm was bandaged.

"You promised me you'd only use it once."

Yin Huaizhu, with her arm bandaged, didn't even raise her head.

She didn't come back.

Upon hearing this, Bai Ying's expression turned somewhat angry!

"But if she comes back, she won't want to see you like this!"

"She painstakingly planned your future so that you could live a good life!"
