Through the bright moonlight, Xu Lan looked at the cold and beautiful face of the woman, her eyes slightly reddened.
"Child, someone like me deserves to die. You don't need to take risks for me."
"Xu Hua is waiting for you."
With those words, Xu Lan fell silent. Her whole life, she'd been an evil person for many years, killed many people, and suffered a lot of torment. She didn't want to live any longer, but Xiao Hua was her only tether.
"I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. Move aside, I'll break the chain."
Taking out the Qingying Sword, An Yiqing pulled the chains embedded in Xu Lan's body. Under the bright moonlight, the chains emitted a cold glow, painful to the eyes.
Xu Lan no longer tried to stop her, watching An Yiqing's actions, her gaze filled with longing for Xu Hua.
With a swift motion, the sword fell, and with a light "clang," a chain broke. An Yiqing worked quickly, and soon, all four chains were cut.
