"L-Lady Ning! What are you doing?!" The guard exclaimed with a shocked expression on his face after she kicked down the door to Bai Xutao's training area.
"You didn't disobey Xutao's order since I will be forcing my way to him," she said to him.
"That's not the issue here…" the guard wore a look of disbelief.
Bai Ning narrowed her eyes at him and spoke in a threatening voice, "What? Should I tear one of your limbs to make it more convincing?"
The guard trembled in fear, and he immediately took several steps back.
"That won't be necessary, Lady Ning!"
Then, without hesitation, the guard punched himself in the face with so much force that he knocked himself out cold.
"…"
Bai Ning stared at the guard's unconscious body for a brief moment before turning around and walking into the cave.
Inside was a long descending staircase that continued for several minutes.
Eventually, Bai Ning arrived before another closed door.
