Shun and Nu Ying were very deferential toward Ye Fan, but the more deferential people were, the more Ye Fan could feel that these two had an agenda with him.
"Ye Fan, if you trust them, you'll end up being used by them. You should also know what you went through before—your experiences of betrayal are simply countless. And now you still want to verify it once more on these two people?" Xuan Nv said.
"Enough!" Nu Ying snapped. "Xuan Nv, we don't deny that among the ancient cultivators your status is higher than mine, but at best you're just an ancient mighty one. Out of the ten mighty ones, your cultivation is the weakest. Even if you hadn't been exiled, in the end your cultivation would never have been able to compare to Shun's. If you didn't have Ye Fan now as your backing to hold you up, you wouldn't even have the right to keep living—we would have killed you!"
Xuan Nv sneered. "Want to kill me? Then you'd better see whether you actually have that ability!"
