Tian Shanshan's smile widened as she observed Qiao Xuan's pale face.
Suddenly, she bent down and pinched Qiao Xuan's chin, her eyes filled with malice. "I hate this face of yours. I really want to destroy it right now! Just you wait!"
She sneered, pushed Qiao Xuan away, and left with an air of arrogance.
As Qiao Xuan watched her go, she felt an itch in her hands, wishing for their departure to come sooner. She was eager to be rid of Tian Shanshan, who was quite dangerous.
Two days later, Tian Shanshan and her group finally exited Shao Yunduan's territory. They passed through two cities under the Second Prince's control before returning to their own area.
With their itinerary calculated, they anticipated arriving in two days, and everyone felt somewhat relieved. The most perilous part seemed to be behind them, and no one expected further trouble.
However, as they passed through a small town at noon, an unexpected incident occurred.
