However, as soon as she had spoken, a red beam of light shot towards her face. Terrified, she tried to evade it but it was too late...

Slash!

At the critical moment, she raised her arm to block the attack. There was a slicing noise and her entire arm fell off.

"Ah!"

"Argh, argh, argh!"

The white-robed Senior Sister screamed in pain. Her shrieks were so heart-wrenching that Elder Mei, who was next to her, paused her anguished wailing and stared at her in shock.

The look in Elder Mei's eyes has changed from hatred to fear. At that moment, there was nothing else in her head but to turn around and run out of the cave.

The unfortunate white-robed Senior Sister had offended Qianbei Ye for Elder Mei's sake yet all she cared about her own skin and she did not even bother to turn back to look at her...

However, before Elder Mei could run out of the cave, a cold air erupted from behind her and pierced through her entire back.

Her body stiffened before she turned around dazedly towards Qianbei Ye's gloomy expression. Her body then slowly tilted towards the ground, crumpling onto the dirt with a thud.

"Junior Sister!"

The white-robed Senior Sister's face drained of color. She covered the bleeding stump of her arm, took a deep breath, and said, "My Junior Sister is dead and I've also lost an arm. Isn't this enough to quell your anger? Won't you let me leave?"

"I'll give you a chance. End your own life. If I do it, I'm afraid that I won't let you die so easily."

Qianbei Ye looked at the white-robed Senior Sister as he calmly replied.

"You..." The white-robed Senior Sister's entire body trembled.

Junior Sister had only humiliated this woman and as a result, he had committed such a horrible murder. A man like this is a demon!

However, she understood that no matter what, Qianbei Ye was never going to allow her to leave.

She gently closed her eyes before opening them again after a long pause. A bitter smile was hanging on her face.

"If I end my own life, will you bury my Junior Sister and I so that we may rest in peace?"

Even to this very moment, the white-robed Senior Sister was thinking of Elder Mei's well-being.

It was unfortunate that Elder Mei never cared about her...

"You have no right to negotiate with me."

Qianbei Ye replied in a sinister voice which made the white-robed Senior Sister's heart tremble.

"Alright, I will end my own life. However, believe me when I say that if the Charm Sect was to find out about everything you've done today, they will never let you get away with it!"

After she spoke, she raised her hand and gathered a dense amount of spiritual energy into the palm of her hand. She then slammed it forcefully on the top of her skull.

Thump!

There was a muffled noise and fresh blood began to trickle down her forehead. The white-robed Senior Sister trembled before her body slowly collapsed onto the ground...

"Yun'er, let's go."

Qianbei Ye did not bother to look at the bodies of the two women at all. He slowly walked towards Gu Ruoyun's side and raised his hand to pull her into his arms. He then smiled and said, "There's no need for you to dirty your hands over these people. I can handle them for you."

Since those who had found out that the Nine Underworld Flames had fallen into their hands, there was no way he would ever let them leave.

Otherwise, if they spread this news, Gu Ruoyun would never have a moment's peace from then on...

After all, the lure of the Nine Underworld Flames was far too great for the public...

"Alright."

Gu Ruoyun gently nodded before she stepped over the two corpses and walked through the cave...

"Yun'er."

Qianbei Ye held her hand as he turned towards her. His enchanting red eyes were glowing with a tender light, "I've decided that I won't hide anything from you so I'm going to take you to the organizations I've gathered in the First City. After that, I will tell you everything about us."
