A rude slash grazed An Lisi's face. If An Lisi hadn't dodged, her cheekbone would have been shattered.

"Ah...prey always has a strong will to survive when it's about to die, but it doesn't matter," Zhiye said in a relaxed tone. Killing the prey seemed easy for her. When did she become so confident?

"If one sword is not enough, then two swords. If two swords are not enough, then multiple swords. Anyway, I am very patient," Zhiye said, still full of morale even after An Lisi dodged her two consecutive attacks.

"Trying to bite, coveting the sweet meat of Jie, a greedy and insolent prey should not only be killed but also have its body incinerated. The evil spirit should also be permanently sealed with a sealing charm," Zhiye said.

Wait...am I a small animal? It looks like I'm going to die in a miserable way.

"Who are you?" An Lisi, feeling a bit tired but still vigilant, raised the chair in her hand.

"Me? I am Jie's former fiancée," Zhiye said, standing straight.

"Huh?" An Lisi felt puzzled by Zhiye's claim of being Jie's former fiancée.

"But soon I will become his wife... after all, I have been cultivating for several months. My abilities have become stronger, my determination has also become more powerful!" Zhiye said in a serious tone. I feel like she's becoming even more immature.

"The person loved by Brother You should be me, not someone like you who suddenly showed up," An Lisi said.

"Someone like me?" Zhiye's eyes welled up with tears.

"Then who are you? What is your relationship with Jie?" Zhiye asked.

"That is an unwavering vow of love until death. Brother You and I are destined to be together," An Lisi said.

"You have touched my sensitive spot..." Flames seemed to rise around Zhiye.

"Anyone who obstructs me from being with Brother You, and tries to take him away from me, I will not hesitate to kill her. Brother You can only be mine," An Lisi said.

"That's what I should say. Prepare to die. I will stab you full of holes," Zhiye said, changing her "face" attack to a thrust with a Western sword.

Stay calm, don't panic.

"Saying such things, you really don't know your limits. I cannot forgive you, absolutely cannot forgive you," Zhiye said. She attacked with her wooden sword, creating a thumping sound as it hit the wooden chair.

An Lisi could only defend herself with the chair against the fierce attacks, but she was at a disadvantage in terms of strength, causing her to keep retreating.

In an instant, Zhiye's wooden sword broke into two pieces with a crisp sound. It seemed that Zhiye also felt tired and stopped her attacks after the sword broke.

An Lisi seemed to see an opportunity and without hesitation, she smashed the chair towards Zhiye.

"Zhiye... be careful!" I shouted.

Zhiye quickly stepped back, avoiding the chair which crashed onto the ground with a loud noise.

"Sneak attacks are the behavior of lowly people!"

"No matter what means it takes, I just want to make you disappear," An Lisi said, raising the chair again and smashing it towards Zhiye. This time, Zhiye didn't dodge.

Has Zhiye lost the strength to even dodge? How did she become stronger?

I couldn't help but close my eyes, and when I heard a scream, I opened my eyes. What I saw in front of me was hard to describe in words. All I could see was the wooden chair split in half, and a silver-gleaming katana appearing before my eyes. The sharpness of that feeling was definitely not fake.

"It seems we can only get serious now," Zhiye took a stance, his eyes as sharp as an eagle's,

"I won't give up either," they stared at each other intently,

An Lisi attacked Zhiye with a broken chair leg, while Zhiye swung his sharp blade without mercy,

"Seriously, couldn't you have waited for me and ran away alone first?"

Su Yuqian appeared at the door, panting,

"Youjie?"

"Yuqian!"

"You're alive and well, I knew you had a strong will to survive. Actually, you don't need to worry, you'll definitely escape on your own, right?"

Su Yuqian said in a relaxed tone, while on the other side they were desperate to kill each other. And I risked my life to escape and failed,

"What's happening over there? It's getting intense," Su Yuqian acted like a bystander,

"Yuqian, go stop them," I said anxiously,

"Why should I stop them? They're just venting their frustrations,"

"Don't act like it doesn't concern you, it could escalate into a fatal situation,"

"It won't... at most, they'll just get some minor injuries,"

"I'll take your head off and make you pay a painful price," Zhiye uttered those words,

"Listen... I'm right, aren't I? Zhiye is holding a real weapon. If we don't stop her, An Lisi may actually lose her head,"

"It's none of my business," Su Yuqian crossed her arms and turned her head to the side,

"There will definitely be a catastrophe!"

"Ah, you're so annoying! I'm going to the headquarters," Su Yuqian was a little impatient but finally intervened,

"Calm down, all of you..."

Su Yuqian ran to interfere, but it seemed that neither side was listening to reason,

"Su Yuqian, don't stop me,"

"When I'm done with her, it'll be your turn..."

"Do I really have to intervene as well? I really don't want to, I've been exhausted running all the way here just to save this useless Youjie,"

Why is everything related to me turning out so bad,

"... So..."

Snap, I saw a piece of wood being shaved off and flying, hitting Su Yuqian in the head, causing her to fall down,

"You can't escape anymore," Zhiye revealed a confident expression,

The wooden chair in An Lisi's hand had already turned into scattered debris,

"I'll decapitate you in an instant,"

An Lisi didn't give up, she threw anything she could grab towards Zhiye,

But Zhiye deflected everything with his blade,

Seeing that An Lisi was pushed into a corner,

"Zhiye... Zhiye... Stop!"

I shouted,

"Jie, I will avenge you,"

I'm not dead yet, no, Zhiye completely ignored my advice,

I tried to stand up, leaning against the wall. I must stop Zhiye from doing something so irrational,
