This was the first time Lu Sangjiu had seen Xie Ningyuan with such blatant killing intent.
She couldn't help but feel a little unnerved and quickly tried to placate him. "Don't overthink it for now. In any case, just wait until I'm done here."
"The Sword Seizing Conference will be over in about five or six days. After that, on the fifth day, we can enter the Sword Tomb. We'll have one day to find a sword."
"All in all, it'll only be a matter of ten-odd days. Then we can take the Teleportation Array straight to Qingyun State. There's plenty of time, so there's no need to rush."
Xie Ningyuan grunted in acknowledgment. "You don't need to feel too much pressure, either. The curse won't affect you before it fully activates."
"Besides, since they've already confirmed that you'll be going to Qingyun State, they won't make another move against you. You can focus on the competition without worry."
