Fen Ling's long sword was less than a palm's distance away from Chu Qianli's heart.
Sword Qi had already pricked her skin.
Yet Chu Qianli continued to stare steadfastly ahead, disbelief filling her eyes.
She couldn't believe that Yexuan would truly seek to take her life.
Even if he spoke harshly, even though she knew there was no future for them, if Yexuan were in danger, she knew she would risk her own life to save him.
But why could he bear to kill her?
Why could he really bring himself to strike her?
She didn't understand, nor dared to understand, so she could only keep staring at his eyes, full of hate and intent to kill.
She didn't dodge because even in facing death, she refused to believe this scene before her.
Right, Yexuan couldn't possibly want to kill her.
He just couldn't!
With a swoosh, Chu Qianli swung her sword.
Fen Ling never dreamed that a person ensnared by an Illusion Technique could snap back to reality at the very last moment!
