Is she imagining things?
Has she missed that person too much and that is why she could not resist wanting to take a second look after seeing someone who looked like him?
But, that face looked exactly the same as his! One that she thinks she would never be able to ever forget.
She had been so engrossed that she did not even notice that someone had come into the grand hall.
Following the woman’s gaze to see, Lian Shi was naturally able to see the figure that caused the woman to look a little downcast. His eyes seemed to darken for an instant, but quicked reverted back to its calm.
“Sovereign, Yan Po came over to report that the condition of the person imprisoned in the Flame Devouring Ice Demon isn’t looking too optimistic. If we do not carry out your plan as soon as possible, that person might be rendered useless soon.”
Her thoughts suddenly interrupted by the man’s voice, the woman’s brows creased up, seemingly slightly displeased. But after realizing what he just said, her expression grew cold. “Just use elixirs to let her hang on for a while longer. I will not allow anyone to hinder my plans in anyway.”
“Understood.” Lian Shi bowed his head and said.
He then saw the woman’s eyes turning back to look at the screen after she said that and his lips moved slightly as if hesitant to speak, but the woman had not noticed his actions in the slightest.
A corner of Lian Shi’s lips lifted up in a scornful sneer but he did not say anything and just walked out from there.
On the other side, inside the Flame Devouring Ice Demon, Ying Ge was secretly transferring a little bit of spirit power into Qing Lan Fei’s body and when she retracted her hands, her face turned pale for a moment.
Qing Lan Fei let out a helpless sigh and then said: “Is there a need for you to do this? Even if I were to recover to the same level of cultivation I had before, I still wouldn’t be able to get out of the Flame Devouring Ice Demon.”
“I’ve told you that I will save you and bring you out from here.” Ying Ge curved up the ends of her pale lips, and the usually cold and distant girl suddenly revealed a smile, that looked exceptionally beautiful and captivating.
“I know that you are just consoling me.” Qing Lan Fei responded as she shook her head slowly. Looking at the girl, she then said softly: “Ying Ge, you’ve already helped me alot, and I am very grateful to you. But, do not continue doing this as I do not want you to get implicated.”
Ying Ge’s gaze sharpened slightly and she remained silent for a good long while before she came to say to Qing Lan Fei: “There’s no need for all this talk of implicating this or that. I am doing this of my own accord.”
Qing Lan Fei knitted up her brows and was just about to say something when she heard Ying Ge open her mouth to speak. “Senior, the Mind Free Peak has manifested before the people and many of them have already set foot onto the Mind Free Peak’s territory, and are just waiting for them to make a choice between life and death.”
The expression on Qing Lan Fei’s face immediately looked startled.
