WHOOSH!
While speaking and flicking her hair, Lingji made her move against Ning Xuan. Hair-thin silver needles shot through the air, arriving before him in an instant. It wasn't just one. Like a storm of pear blossoms, they enveloped his entire body.
But Lingji's expression changed drastically. She tried to flee, but her body instantly stiffened.
"Do you know where the person who last used silver needles on me is now?" Ning Xuan's voice sounded right beside her ear. It wasn't a telepathic message; he was truly whispering to her.
Lingji felt a chill run down her spine. This is terrifying! Ning Xuan's speed was beyond her comprehension.
Moving away from her, Ning Xuan asked again, "Where is Zhongli Ruoruo?"
"The Sect Master has imprisoned her in the Forbidden Area. I cannot set foot in there," Lingji answered without hesitation. She was a smart woman. She knew Ning Xuan was beyond her ability to handle, so she gave up all resistance.
"How do I get to the Forbidden Area?"
