Bei Xiaoman clenched her teeth in hatred. But she was unaware that all her thoughts were echoing in Ning Fan’s mind as well through the Yin Yang Locket.
She might not be able to comprehend why she was targeting Ning Fan all the time but he realized something.
This girl seems to have taken a liking on me…
It was not quite appropriate to say that she actually “liked” Ning Fan. She just had good feelings towards him. Maybe it was because they were both cultivators of the Path of Killing. Perhaps, she did not know how to express her feelings appropriately, causing her to target him all the time.
“Interesting…”
Now, Ning Fan withdrew all his killing intent and he boldly stared at Bei Xiaoman’s body.
That audacious, direct stare made her blush like a tomato. Her original thoughts of using her Yuan Yao Jade was cast aside and she reprimanded, “You! What are you looking at?! What’s there to see?!”
“There is indeed nothing to see. However, the ruby thumb ring on your hand seems to be quite an impressive magical treasure. Is it called the Yuan Yao Jade?”
“How… How did you know about it?!”
Bei Xiaoman’s heartbeat raced. Her scheme had been exposed.
As she thought that her plan of using the Yuan Yao Jade to capture Ning Fan was found out, her embarrassment turned into anger.
Without any hesitation, she raised her hand and the ruby thumb ring twinkled. A trace of power from the treasure rushed towards Ning Fan and the female corpse.
However, Ning Fan secretly activated his Yin Yang Locket, his Treasure of the Cosmos, to defend against hers. The power of the treasure passed by them without affecting them, let alone capturing them into the Yuan Yao World.
“How come?! Yuan Yao Jade, keep!”
She shook her hand once more, sending another wave of force towards them. However, Ning Fan still firmly stood at his original position.
Instead, the female corpse had been nearly sucked into the Yuan Yao Jade by the force. Fortunately, her hand was tightly held by Ning Fan.
Before this, she did not realize the fear she had towards Ning Fan. But now, the feeling of imminent danger struck her, making her be on alert.
“I understand now. You also possess a Treasure of the Cosmos! It is considered rare for a cultivator from the mortal world to possess an Immortal Abode’s Magical Treasure. Unexpectedly, you possess a treasure of my kind…. However, I still have others… Ah…”
Before she could finish her words, her body was off-balance, staggering to one side.
She forcefully stabilized herself but her face rapidly turned pale.
Furthermore, the air was permeated with the smell of blood.
Blood?!
Ning Fan’s eyes turned clear as if he understood something… The next moment, a weird expression replaced his emotionless face.
“Interesting. It is really unexpected that you, as a cultivator, still has…”
“Don’t speak of it! Don’t look at it! Detestable, truly detestable! Why does it have to come at this time…”
