"Hide?" Zhao Jia sneered. "Youyan, what do I have to hide from? You're the one who should be hiding. No matter how you compete, you can't beat me. I'll definitely find a way to kill you and get the chance to fulfill the promise I made to the master."
That mysterious voice was referred to as "the Great One" by many who believed in her.
"Is that so?" Lu Qingyan didn't argue with him, but coldly asked a question before starting to make her move.
At this point, reciting longer spells was quite time-consuming; they were more focused on the power of their magic wands. When the golden and purple light collided, they produced dazzling sparks.
"Youyan, you're really something. It's only been a short time since we last met, and you've become even stronger." Zhao Jia said with difficulty, "But I'm also constantly changing, and I can't keep losing to you like this."
"What's the point of saying all this? Why can't you turn back?" Lu Qingyan kicked Youyan in the stomach. "You weren't like this before. Back then, you—"
"Don't bring that up with me!" Zhao Jia scrambled to his feet and swung his fist at Lu Qingyan. "You're getting more and more long-winded. I'm warning you, don't bring up those upsetting things again! I used to get bullied because I was too nice. Now that I'm strong, they only respect me and don't dare to argue back. I'm happy now, why do I want to go back to how I was before? Youyan, we've known each other for so many years, don't you understand me at all?"
Lu Qingyan trembled after taking the punch: "I know you. You don't like it here at all, and you don't like the rules. When we were learning magic together at school, all you encountered were pranks. Now, you could lose your life!"
"What's there to be afraid of? It's just a life." Zhao Jia licked the blood that had spilled from the corner of his mouth. "I'm not afraid at all. Youyan, last time, and the time before that, you were the ones who let me go. I won't do the same thing to you. I'm taking your life!"
As Zhao Jia spoke, she swung her magic wand towards Lu Qingyan. Lu Qingyan blocked it again, and another burst of sparks flew.
Seeing that his attack had no effect, Zhao Jia angrily threw a punch at Lu Qingyan. Lu Qingyan intercepted Zhao Jia's fist, retracted her magic wand, and slashed it across his left side, instantly splitting him in two.
Zhao Jia was ultimately no match for Lu Qingyan.
Lu Qingyan looked at the bloody scene before her, seemingly oblivious to everything, and walked to his side. Her warm hand traced the corner of his eye, closing his wide-open eyes: "Zhao Jia, why did you do this? Why do you have to obey her?"
"Hehehe~" The voice appeared again: "Humans, what contradictory creatures you are. You've done everything you could, what right do you have to complain? You killed this life, so blame yourself instead of trying to pin it on me."
"You're the one who's contradicting yourself!" Lu Qingyan wouldn't fall into self-doubt because of his few words: "You brought them here, the magic is your creation, and you issued the kill order. Isn't that right?"
"So what does it matter?" The mysterious voice chuckled.
