Enemies Meet on the Narrow Road

Xue Ji fumbled through her clothes, looking for money pockets, shirt pockets, or anything else that would allow one to save money. However, in her body, there was nothing of value. It made her smile wryly.

Really, was this girl previously so poor that she didn't even have any money? Then who could have caused this girl to go to the top of Bing An alone to be chased by wolves?

That surprised her a little. This girl shouldn't have an ordinary identity. She has enemies, there must be a reason.

"Miss, are you going to pay?" asked the waiter with a little urgency.

"That …." Xue Ji rubbed her nose. How about this? What should she say?

If in the past she could rob or threaten any tavern owner, right now she couldn't. With her current strength, instead of being bullied, she will be the one being bullied

She took a deep breath, raised her head, and looked at Bai Xiu who was sitting down drinking wine. The man then looked at her with narrowed eyes. "Why? Could it be that you don't have any money?"

Xue Ji snorted. She turned to look at the waiter then pointed at Bai Xiu. "He ate my wonton noodles and wine. So I kindly handed the bill over to him."

After saying that, she immediately ran out of the tavern. The waiter was surprised. "Hey! Young Lady, how could you just walk away?!" He chased after Xue Ji, but the girl ran fast and just disappeared behind the crowd.

The waiter returned to Bai Xiu with a sad face. "Master, how is it?" he asked a little pleadingly.

Bai Xiu was speechless. That 'little wild cat' was truly shameless. After cursing him, instead of apologizing, she forced him to pay the bill?

He snorted to find the waiter looking at him expectantly. "Master, you will pay the bill right?" He repeats once again.

Bai Xiu sighed, feeling a little indecisive. To be honest he didn't have any money either. Not because he was poor like Xue Ji, but because he didn't prepare well. After all, he had not previously thought that he would need money during the trip.

"Master, if you take too long, perhaps your lover will go too far. Aren't you going to go after her?" asked the waiter again. He was starting to worry that Bai Xiu wouldn't pay.

Moments later Bai Xiu picked up a pebble from the yard and turned it into gold coins. He placed the gold coin on the table, saying, "This is all I can do. You're right, I do have to go after that girl."

His white figure flashed, then in an instant, he was gone. The waiter blinked a few times, stunned and surprised. Seeing the gold coins on the table made his hands tremble. And seeing the man just disappear like a ghost, his shaking became even more intense.

"Heaven, what creature is that?! Is he a ghost? How could he just disappear?!"

He held the gold coin with trembling hands. "And… and… how could he turn stones into gold coins?"

His feelings were filled with shock and disbelief. He shook his head in admiration. Noodle dumplings and wine are not expensive, only worth a few silver coins. However, the man gave him some gold pieces. That's too much!

"He must not be human…," he muttered.

Meanwhile, Xue Ji was still running to avoid Bai Xiu. Short of breath, she stopped and leaned against the wall of an inn. Sweat dripped from her forehead.

"Damn! That person shouldn't be able to find me right?" she muttered as she looked around. Several people were passing by in front of her, but they only glanced at her briefly.

She then rubbed her stomach which was still hungry. Previously in the tavern, she had only eaten a few mouthfuls, it was not at all enough to satisfy her hunger. After running far enough of course she felt even more hungry.

At that moment suddenly a voice came from a distance. "Look, it's the girl who tricked us!"

Xue Ji immediately turned her head. Her eyes widened when she saw Ye Xianling's group had arrived in front of her. How did they meet here? It's true, enemies always meet on a narrow path.

Oh, fuck it. There is no more time. She had to run away from them!

Finally, Xue Ji returned to running. Ye Xianling's group chased after her. Once again Xue Ji was thrown into a grueling chase scene. Unfortunately, that group had a cultivation level above her, so she was quickly blocked by them.

Ye Xianling with an expression full of killing intent, stood in front of Xue Ji brandishing her longsword. She looked even scarier than before.

"I told you before, if you trick us, I will kill you," she hissed coldly. She looked very serious with her words.

Xue Ji gulped looking at the tip of the sword which was only inches away from her nose. She chuckled and said, "Where did I trick you? I'm telling the truth."

"Actually you didn't see the Snow Lotus at all did you?!" Ye Xianling snapped angrily. She and her group had searched around the snowy cave, but there was nothing there. There's only a pile of messy snow.

"Actually I saw the flower."

"Then why isn't there?!"

Xue Ji felt like laughing at the woman's stupidity, but she refrained from mocking her. After all, the tip of the sword could stab at any moment.

"I did see the flower, but I'm not saying I didn't take it. So …."

"So you took it?!" Ye Xianling snapped again.

"Mm…. It's a precious treasure, how could I not take it?" Xue Ji replied while looking down. Her expression did not show any guilt, making Ye Xianling even more furious.

"So you took it? Then leave the flower to me!"

Xue Ji thought for a moment. "How should I say it? The thing is… I already ate the flower."

Ye Xianling's expression became very bad. She shouted, "I'm really going to kill you!"

"Wait!" Xue Ji immediately stopped.

Ye Xianling was getting angrier and angrier to the point of wanting to skin the white-haired girl alive. She gritted her teeth as she asked, "Do you want to say the last words before your death comes?"

Xue Ji's facial expression turned flat and cold. What kind of joke is this? How could the Evil Queen, who once frightened the entire world, now be bullied by a group of disciples from a small sect?

Thinking of that made Xue Ji feel both embarrassed and angry. As if everything she got in the past was just bullshit. It was as if what she had done in the past had nothing to do with her at all as if everything was nothing.

No matter how angry she was, all of this was undeniable. This generation is not her generation at all. Four hundred years have passed and everything has changed. She was no longer the same person.

If she wanted to become strong and make everyone subservient, she couldn't help but have to start all over again.

So, she took a deep breath. Then flatly said, "Take me to your sect. You can punish me in any way. Of course, that's as long as you can let me in there. "
