This time seeing everyone dying so closely affected Lian Zhi much more than she had thought it would, she felt a lingering fear from the mere sight of this masked cultivator.
The fear was rooted deep into her soul, even knowing that she was in a safe zone and this cultivator wouldn't be able to attack her now even if he wanted, not to mention sister Lingxi had assured her that he wouldn't even attack them even if they weren't in a safe zone, it didn't help her.
The moment she laid her eyes on him her breathing became erratic, she totally lost control of her calm state. She understood that this fear wouldn't go away easily.
Fearing something isn't a problem, everyone has something that they fear but having trauma alongside is detrimental to her mental state and this can cause unwanted problems while cultivating.
