“You’re not a girl. You’re a crazy woman.” Chi Jiao looked at her coldly and retorted bluntly.
“You…!” Xia Luoqiao was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. She snorted indignantly. “I can’t be bothered to argue with you. I heard that you caught She Qi? Why didn’t you bring me to see him? I’ve been waiting to see him make a fool of himself. I must go to his cell to torture him and mock him!”
“Xia Luoqiao, you’re also a criminal. You have no right to mock She Qi,” Quan Jue said expressionlessly.
Xia Luoqiao was surprised when she heard that. She looked at them in disdain. “Why? I’ve already helped you so much. What’s wrong with letting me see She Qi? He abandoned me. I’ll definitely beat him up to vent my anger!”
“You’re not helping us. You’re making amends,” Quan Jue said expressionlessly.
Xia Luoqiao had helped She Qi do so many bad things in the past. Now, her explanations and denials could only be considered clumsy excuses. In reality, she had done many bad things that could never be forgiven.
Therefore, it was impossible to let Xia Luoqiao take revenge on She Qi.
Xia Luoqiao was furious. She clenched her fists angrily. “How can you treat me like this! I’m not convinced! I want you to let me go. Otherwise, I won’t let you off!”
“Xia Luoqiao, we came here today to warn you to be obedient. If I hear any more complaints from my subordinates, don’t blame me for being merciless.” Chi Jiao retracted her gaze and left with Quan Jue.
Xia Luoqiao roared angrily upon hearing this. “You think you are so great?! Let me tell you, I’ll find another way even if you don’t bring me along. I’ll do everything I can and will definitely meet She Qi. You guys can’t stop me!”
Chi Jiao held Quan Jue’s arm and left with him.
Hearing Xia Luoqiao’s roars behind her, Chi Jiao rubbed her brows. “Xia Luoqiao is really stubborn. Is she shouting so loudly because she’s afraid of people not knowing how troublesome she is?”
Quan Jue smiled and gently pinched her pink face. He comforted her gently. “There’s no need to be angry over such a person. Jiaojiao, I have something to tell you.”
Chi Jiao blinked curiously upon seeing how serious he was. “Brother Quan, what’s the matter?”
“It’s about the Heart of Time in my mother’s body. Perhaps She Qi will have a way to remove it.” Quan Jue’s eyes lit up.
Chi Jiao became excited and asked happily, “Really? Brother Quan, why didn’t you tell me such an important thing earlier? But how would She Qi know?”
“There are ancient books from hundreds of years ago in the Xuan Sect. In one of the books, there is some information recorded about the Heart of Time and the other three stones. However, that particular book belonged to She Qi back then, and he destroyed a lot of the contents. However, he must have read it himself before he destroyed the information. All we have to do is find a way to get a solution from him. As long as he’s willing to tell us, my mother won’t have to suffer.”
