Bab 1213: One battle down, a war yet to go.

Li Xue's lips curled up in a very beautiful smile as staring at Su Ce, she studied him first. Then taking a step closer, she drew herself a bit dangerously close to him to say, "What do you think, Prince Su?"

She said before pulling herself back to her stance with a nonchalant expression. 

Su Ce didn't understand the meaning of her words. He just felt that there was something threatening about her tone, that almost stiffened his spine unknowingly. He gulped to ease his dry throat before looking at the woman.

No, no, no, Su Ce. You can't go weak in front of her. She is just a woman. What could be there in her that could scare you? She is just playing tricks on you. Don't let her win. 

Just when Su Ce was about to lose for good, his wicked internal self gave him the strength to survive in the last few minutes. His confidence returned and his next words were just in the bay, ready to come next.
