Shen Wanqing didn't say anything unnecessary. She knew Shu'er wouldn't abandon her, and speaking now would only distract Shu'er.
Zhen Xu was trailing behind leisurely, as if he was enjoying the process of the hunt.
Pei Shu'er quickly ran into the dense forest and hid with Shen Wanqing.
The two hid quite discreetly, yet Zhen Xu's footsteps were gradually approaching them.
Shen Wanqing was becoming increasingly tense. Just as she was about to speak, she felt a pain in her neck; Pei Shu'er knocked her out again and left her in the spatial realm.
Zhen Xu's shoes stopped beside the bush where Pei Shu'er was hiding. He reached out a white hand and slowly parted the grass.
His voice was like a clear spring: "Struggling is useless, you will return to the Western Paradise sooner or later."
"I mean no harm; I'm merely here to help you escape this filthy world."
As he spoke, he sounded as if he were a great benefactor, yet his actions aimed to take Pei Shu'er's life.
