"Rumors? When have I, Song Xiwei, ever cared? If I were to become a coward just because others say a few unpleasant things, I might as well change my name to Coward!"
His smile was so unrestrained, yet it didn't reach his eyes; the coldness emanating from his body lingered for a long time, only growing more sharp.
She said coldly, "If you are willing to tell me his whereabouts, I will accept your favor. But if you want to persuade me to return to my sect, save your breath. My senior brother doesn't just find out who I am today."
"I knew you were stubborn, Junior Sister, and wouldn't listen to reason. Sigh. Why did you have to do this for an outsider..."
Yan Ye sighed softly, but did not reveal Ao Qian's whereabouts. Instead, she said, "Actually, I didn't intend to tamper with my junior sister's natal magic weapon. But if she had been obedient, I naturally wouldn't have used it to threaten you. It's just a pity that we are fellow disciples, and such methods have to be used..."
Upon hearing this, Song Xiwei did not panic. Instead, she raised an eyebrow and expressionlessly took out the hairpin.
Her smile suddenly widened, and after a while, tears streamed down her face. She clutched her stomach and said, "My second senior brother has been my senior brother for so long, how come the methods he uses are still so underhanded?"
After laughing for a while, seeing Yan Ye's puzzled expression, she calmed her laughter, "That's it? You're going to use this kind of trick to force me to go back to your sect with you? Oh my, you really provided me with the biggest laugh of the day, thank you so much..."
Seeing Song Xiwei still laughing so arrogantly at this moment, Yan Ye's face completely fell. "You! Don't force me. Once your natal magic weapon is damaged, your cultivation will be affected in the short term. I don't want to harm my fellow disciples, but you'd better behave and listen to me! Don't be ungrateful!"
"Senior brother, you've tampered with my natal magic weapon, so I can't fight you head-on. But you seem to have forgotten that my ability to run away is unmatched, even with my eyes closed. You want me to give in? If you're still dreaming, keep dreaming. Anything can happen in dreams."
After saying that, Song Xiwei was certain that Yan Ye wouldn't tell her Ao Qian's whereabouts, so there was no need to pay attention to him.
Just as she was about to leave, a sudden, dull pain shot through her chest. Kotoha let out a cold laugh: "Did you think I came to see you without making any preparations?"
"Alright, you're amazing. I underestimated you. Are you satisfied now?" Song Xiwei glanced at Yan Ye, but only gave her a speechless look. In the blink of an eye, she punched a wall open and squeezed through the crack in the wall.
Yan Ye immediately used her perception magic to track Song Xiwei.
Song Xiwei clutched her chest, expressionless, as she ran while sealing the spiritual power on the magical artifact.
Kotoha tampered with the magical artifact, so he could sense her wherever she went.
To shake him off, the only option is to seal the magical artifact, and it's not advisable to use magic or spiritual power; the only way is to rely on one's physical strength to escape.
However, Kotoha was indeed well-prepared this time and pursued her very closely. Just as she was about to leave Huicheng City, Kotoha had already caught up. What was even more infuriating was that Kotoha's accomplices appeared.
Under the guise of practicing medicine and helping the world, he somehow became entangled with human forces.
A group of ordinary people dressed in armor blocked her way.
Logically speaking, even if a hundred more of these mortals came, they wouldn't be able to stop him without using magic.
Just then, Kotoha caught up with them.
"If you continue running, fine, but I'll wipe out everyone in this city, not a single one. Are you sure you want to do that?" Yan Ye, a doctor, actually said such cruel words.
