Those words made Xie Menghua pause slightly.
"His reaction earlier proved something important. He knows. He knows Lan Yunlai's essence is inside him."
The smile on Xie Zhenting's face slowly faded into something colder. "Which means we must retrieve him before he discovers a method of eliminating it completely."
Then suddenly, he smiled again. "And fortunately, we still possess help from our little Su Mian."
Xie Menghua's expression twisted again.
But Xie Zhenting only tapped her shoulder teasingly. "Come now, A-Hua. I am trying to improve your mood."
"Well it is not working," she snapped viciously, her eyes darkening with pure hatred. "I will not be satisfied until every single one of them dies."
With that, she stormed past him furiously and disappeared deeper into the manor.
Xie Zhenting watched her leave before sighing softly.
Then he slowly lifted his gaze upward toward the crescent moon hanging in the night sky.
