Jin Linlin walked out of Fengqi Palace slowly. Her steps seemed light, as if all her previous sadness and determination had been left behind.
In fact, she knew very well that the reason she wanted to kill Cao Jiao and Jiang Shuyan was simply to test whether the male and female protagonists were really not to be killed.
