Ye Qinghan's legs went weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground. He staggered back several steps before regaining his balance...

"Are you serious? Shiyao, something happened to Master?"

"And what about me, more than two thousand years later? Am I not by my master's side?"

Li Shiyao remained silent, clearly indicating that it was not something Ye Qinghan should know at this moment.

Clearly, for whatever reason, she was not by her master's side when he met with disaster.

"Where is Lord Gu Ai?" Ye Qinghan's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe it at all!

Li Shiyao remained silent, only looking helplessly at Ye Qinghan in front of her.

"That's impossible! I'm talking about Lord Gu Ai, you didn't mishear, did you? He's Master's most outstanding personal attendant, the most powerful God-Slaying King!"

"Senior sister, it won't be long before you find out that Lady Gu Ai has already divided up her power."

Ye Qinghan didn't understand, so she and Lord Gu Ai both...

But Li Shiyao still smiled and patted Ye Qinghan's shoulder: "Senior sister, are you scared?"

Ye Qinghan was stunned for a moment, then disdainfully brushed away the jade hand that had hit his shoulder, looking terrified, as if he was no longer in the mood for jokes.

"What a joke! I am Master's personal disciple. Afraid? If you knew what the so-called quenching ritual was, you would understand that neither Gu Ai nor I would be afraid of anything."

Li Shiyao grinned, "To be honest, Senior Sister, I'll most likely die after I go back..."

"But Shiyao wasn't afraid at all, because Shiyao knew that if she ran away, the days that followed would be worse than death."
