She remembered that it was Fan Qiuhe who had brought this woman to Jiaozhong Base to make trouble for her. Speaking of which, these two might be on pretty good terms?

“What-What Fan Qiuhe.” Guan Yiying’s complexion instantly turned ugly.

She had recalled that she had once tried to kill this d*mned Qiao Mu in the Lower Star Domain. However, that had simply turned into a ridiculous farce.

She and Pundit Zhao had chased this girl to Jiaozhong Base to rob and kill her for her Xuanji Core, yet—the result was that the people she had brought had all died by this d*rn lass’s hands without exception!

Likewise, she barely escaped after using a teleportation talisman.

Thinking about it now, it was an extremely precarious situation.

Qiao Mu gazed at Guan Yiying icily. “As expected, you’re someone who’s used to snatching whatever you want from other people.”

Guan Yiying’s face flushed red as she glared viciously at Qiao Mu. She suddenly pointed at Qiao Mu and told the people around her from Anyi Prefecture, “Everybody! This girl possesses the rare Xuanji Core! As long as we work together to kill her, we can share the spoils of the Xuanji Core! We’ll immediately be able to recover our spiritual energy.”

“Wh-What?”

“Fourth Young Miss Guan, is that really true?”

“Of course it’s true!” Guan Yiying nodded resolutely.

“Guan Yiying, are you just making up a story so that we’ll attack her for you?”

“Believe whatever you want! In any case, I am telling the absolute truth!” Guan Yiying rebutted.

*Swish!* A cluster of flames instantly darted toward Guan Yiying. She dropped to the ground with a roll at the very last second. When she turned and saw how deep the scorched pit was, her complexion turned pale.

When she looked up, she noticed a stern-looking man in black standing next to the d*mn lass.

That man was very handsome. It felt like his cold gaze was treating her like a corpse, and she involuntarily felt cold all over. She had no leisure to be admiring the handsome man.

Meanwhile, the people from Anyi Prefecture were showing covetous gazes after Guan Yiying’s instigation.

/The Xuanji Core!/

/That was an ancient legend passed down from the Upper Three Provinces./

/It was said that this Xuanji Core contained Senior Xuanji’s entire lifetime of cultivation, and many forces had also investigated its whereabouts in greed./

/Yet it turned out that?/

/A little girl has obtained the Xuanji Core?/

They looked at Qiao Mu with eyes filled with greed.

Qiao Mu did not fear them and coldly swept over them with her gaze.

Subsequently, one blue attack talisman after another drifted up and started moving around her slowly.

“Guan Yiying, you will die with these fools here today!”

“Kill them!” At Qiao Mu’s command, all the people beside her moved together. They charged at the people from Anyi Prefecture and swung their blades.

Because the people from Anyi Prefecture’s academies had been cooped up in a passageway for a long time battling zombies, they were not Dao Wuji and company’s match at all.

They were like chicks, getting destroyed in no time.

The remaining half were so overwhelmed with terror that they hastily fled. They did not care about anything else as they escaped toward the passageway where they had come from.

“Guan Yiying!” One male student from Anyi Prefecture’s Jiaqing Academy roared with bloodshot eyes.

It was only then that everyone realized that Guan Yiying had sneaked over to the entrance of the passageway at the start of the fight.
