Ye Han said, “If I get in your way one day, you won’t hesitate to kill me. I’m not brave enough to follow someone like you. I’m sorry.”
She gave Shan Jingfei a bow as well before standing on the side.
Shan Jingfei stared at her in astonishment.
Even Ye Han had betrayed her.
“Gu Xingyuan, what about you? Are you going to betray me, too? Didn’t you say you and Feng Wu were at odds? Didn’t you say you would never forgive Feng Wu for ruining your family?!” Shan Jingfei glared at Gu Xingyuan.
Gu Xingyuan felt conflicted.
He had wanted to help Shan Jingfei. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have joined her team.
However, he was bewildered by everything that had happened so far.
Feng Wu was his archenemy, but she was beyond his reach.
He had thought she was a Level 6 Spiritual Lord, but after seeing her fight, he realized she was at least a Level 9 Spiritual Lord. He wasn’t her match at all!
She also knew formations and inscriptions.
Gu Xingyuan had lost all hope.
Shan Jingfei was still staring at him.
Gu Xingyuan shook his head. “At odds? That suggests that both sides are matched in strength. Do you think I have that kind of capability?”
Shan Jingfei became desperate.
The more people she asked, the more hopeless she felt.
Qiu Zeyu asked, “Did you really do that to Ye Hongxue, your savior? Is this who you really are?”
Shan Jingfei closed her eyes. When she opened them again, she glared at Qiu Zeyu and said, “Yes, I dragged Ye Hongxue out!”
Rumble —
Those words shattered all Qiu Zeyu’s hopes.
He pointed at Shan Jingfei and couldn’t say a word.
In a way, Shan Jingfei was an incredible person.
She could pretend to be fragile or kind when she needed to. However, when she was exposed, she became utterly distant.
“You admitted it quickly enough.” Ye Hongxue stared at Shan Jingfei.
Shan Jingfei ground her teeth. “You’re still alive! I don’t owe you anything!”
Ye Hongxue’s voice was filled with hatred. “Do you know what you’ve done to me?”
Shan Jingfei didn’t speak.
Ye Hongxue said, “You’ve made me lose hope in people!”
“From now on, I’ll hesitate before I save someone. I’ll wonder if they’ll turn out to be as ungrateful as you! I don’t have that unconditional kindness anymore!”
She took a deep breath. “But I want to thank you, Shan Jingfei. You made me see the world from a different angle. I was so foolish before!”
Feng Wu felt sorry for Ye Hongxue, but she was pleased to see her change.
The incident had been a hard blow to Ye Hongxue, but it had also helped her grow.
Feng Wu patted Ye Hongxue on the shoulder. “You’re still alive.”
Ye Hongxue smiled and nodded. “Yes. Luckily, I’m still alive.”
She then turned to Mr. Yang. “Shan Jingfei must be punished for what she did!”
Shan Jingfei glared at her.
Ye Hongxue glared back. “That look you’re giving me means you haven’t repented. I won’t let you off the hook so easily.”
Shan Jingfei clenched her fists but didn’t dare say anything.
“Inform her parents.” Mr. Yang turned to Gongsun Mu. “It’s not something the academy can handle on its own. We must send for her parents.”
