n“Since she hurt you and killed your senior brother, I’ll give you a chance at revenge. Go capture her.”

nNan Ningxin was slightly dazed. “Are you asking me to capture her, my lord?”

nShao Zun gripped her chin. “Let me tell you the rule of the Earthly Residence: All orders must be carried out at once without question. Go.”

nAfter he let her go, Nan Ningxin felt her chin throb with pain.

nShe pursed her lips. “Yes, sir.”

nShe could accidentally kill Gu Bailu while trying to capture her.

nShe was garbage, after all, and nearly hurt Shao Zun’s nephew just now. Nan Ningxin didn’t think that Shao Zun would punish her for killing the trash.

nBesides, she had the Murong family behind her.

n“Grandfather, leave her to me.”

nNan Ningxin knew that the skills of the Gu family couldn’t be used in this world.

nIt was because they were eccentric and didn’t fit into the cultivation rules of this world.

nIf somebody boasted enormous strength when they didn’t have any spiritual power, they would just be destroyed by jealous people, unless they were strong enough to change everyone’s opinion.

nNan Ningxin knew this very well, so she had never used the skills she learned from the Gu family.

nHowever, she knew that Gu Bailu had to use them in order to chase after her. It couldn’t be any easier to manipulate her.

nThe only thing Nan Ningxin hadn’t counted on was Prince Zi rescuing Gu Bailu from Shao Di.

nPrince Zi was the man she desired the most yet couldn’t get close to. How could she allow this fool to grab that advantage for herself and live in this world?

nGu Bailu had to be eliminated.

nNan Ningxin never considered the possibility that Gu Bailu was too strong for her.

nThat was because they practiced the same skills. Even though Nan Ningxin wouldn’t use them, she still knew how they were performed.

nShe dashed at Gu Bailu and was about to grab her wrist.

nDrawing runes by hand was the foundation of the skills. With her hands restrained, Gu Bailu wouldn’t be able to cast any spells.

nHowever, Nan Ningxin forgot how much Gu Bailu hated her. The latter knew her personality too well, and wouldn’t be caught so easily.

nShe had merely been innocent in her previous life, not stupid.

nNow that Nan Ningxin had darted in close, Gu Bailu aimed a kick at her forehead.

nNan Ningxin dodged it nimbly. Taking advantage of the moment, Gu Bailu took out a rune which locked the other girl’s movements. “Nan Ningxin, I can’t kill you now, but I can ruin your face.”

nShe scratched Nan Ningxin’s face without any hesitation.

nNan Ningxin struggled hard, but was frozen by the rune.

nDamn it. She didn’t expect the trash to have learned how to use the freeze rune.

nWhen did she learn it?

nThree bleeding wounds were scratched fiercely into Nan Ningxin’s face.

n“To catch you and for my vengeance, I memorized all my family’s books. I dared come to this dinner because I’m confident I can retreat in one piece. I’m not the Gu Bailu you once knew. Remember that well.”

nGu Bailu kicked her away. Nan Ningxin fell from the air and was caught by someone who had rushed over.
