Baili Xia's attention was entirely focused on Ning Anran, about to shake off the girls holding her back.
By the time she saw the patch of black liquid coming at her, it was too late to dodge!
"Ah!" A shriek blurted out.
Seeing the blob of black pitch splash towards Baili Xia, Ning Anran was terrified.
She screamed, wanting to shield Baili Xia, but it was hopeless, she wouldn't make it in time.
Baili Xia wouldn't make it in time to dodge either.
In the heat of the moment, she could only turn around, using her back to face the incoming black liquid.
Despite not knowing what it was, looking at this black substance, she felt an unspeakable revulsion.
No matter what, she couldn't let it splash on her face— if it was something acidic or alkaline, it would be a disaster.
Baili Xia knew it was impossible to avoid, so she closed her eyes, waiting for the moment the liquid would drench her.
But after a few seconds, she felt nothing unusual.
