Chapter 496: Locating Qin Zhixiu - Part 2

"Why?"

"It's too complicated," Nan Yan explained. "If it were just one or two people, it might be manageable. But my enemies include not only ruthless individuals but also numerous covert forces."

"Besides, we're currently in a sensitive period. It's best not to provoke them further for now, or the situation might become even more complex."

Nan Yan wasn't someone who enjoyed killing; otherwise, those who had troubled her in the past would probably all be gone by now. Unless provoked and threatened directly, she preferred to avoid unnecessary bloodshed as much as possible.

She feared that indulging too much in violence would lead her astray, becoming lost in the thrill of bloodshed. She didn't want to become a murderous maniac.

Sun Chan wasn't too pleased. "So we'll just wait for them to come looking for you?"

"No, those people don't even know I'm still alive. And the ones causing trouble this time are not the same group," Nan Yan explained.
