”Maybe if you ask me more politely, then I'd help you.”
Without showing the slightest respect towards Yang Xia who was stronger than her, Meirong flatly said, ”Do you want the Yin Slaves or not?”
Knowing that trying to tease the woman wouldn't work, Yang Xia chose to not play around anymore.
”Fine... Since I'm someone who has a very big heart, I'll help my hopeless junior in understanding whatever it is that she isn't able to learn on her own.”
Walking out and closing the door behind her, Yang Xia said, ”Lead the way to your courtyard Meirong. I don't think I've ever visited any of the inferior courtyards until now.”
Not saying anything, Meirong started walking forward while thinking that she should remain patient until Bai Long placed the curse on her.
Once he did that, she could teach her a lesson without having to worry about Yang Xia being stronger than her.
As for if Bai Long would let her do so, given that she was one who first had the curse placed on her she should have superiority over Yang Xia, right?
Thinking so, Meirong unconsciously increased her speed and forced the other two to increase their own speed as well.
...
Seeing everything that happened through Meirong's eyes, Bai Long finally lit up the candle which was placed below the beaker in between the small stand that held the beaker which was filled with something in place.
Once the candle was lit, it didn't take long for the metal beaker which was made of a special material to quickly her hot and cause the liquid inside it to burn.
Taking a step back to observe the beaker out of which Bai Long could hear the bubbling sounds due to the liquid boiling, he soon started seeing a thick red coloured mist come out of the beaker's opening.
The mist was so thick that Bai Long felt that it was close to looking like a thick cloud which would soon let out red rain, rather than the steam which appeared when a liquid was boiled or even when something was burned.
Now all that was left of Bai Long to do was wait for his prey to walk right inside the trap.
...
Depending on the listeners perspective, Yang Xia's life would either be considered as pitiful or cruel.
Cruel in the sense towards others, and not to herself.
Starting with her childhood, Yang Xia was continuously bullied due to her appearance.
What made it worse was how her parents also never came to her rescue and repeatedly praised her sister who was considered as the beauty of the entire city.
In the middle of all of this, Yang Xia turned into an adult with the hopes of finding some sort of satisfaction when she fell in love with a young wandering cultivator.
