The sobbing continued for several hours before the room finally quieted down...
Xu Sheng's ink-colored pupils suddenly opened, and he slowly pushed the door open, entering...
Looking at Shangguan Lin curled up in the corner, he couldn't help but purse his thin lips...
He could no longer be soft-hearted, doing so would only harm her!
Shangguan Lin lifted her head, those bloodshot beautiful eyes staring at Xu Sheng, she said sarcastically, "What are you doing here? Do you want to break my heart again?"
In her words, one could hear the contained grief and despair...
Xu Sheng stepped forward to her, gently stroking her head with his hand...
Seeing this, Shangguan Lin pushed him away, then said with a hoarse voice, "Don't touch me with your hands!"
Xu Sheng, not at all angered by being pushed away, said softly, "Shangguan, I am very clear about your feelings for me..."
The curled-up figure of Shangguan Lin on the ground shook, her eyes full of confusion as she looked up, "Then why you..."
Xu Sheng sighed, "Because being with me is impossible. I won't stay in any one place for too long..."
Having already let down a Gu Linruo in this world, he didn't want to disappoint another woman...
Shangguan Lin's tone gradually became more heated as she pressed, "If that's the case, I can leave with you! Why reject me..."
Xu Sheng shook his head, no longer offering further explanation...
He said indifferently, "It's already very late, hurry and sleep. Tomorrow, I will take you out of the Evil Spirit Sect!"
Seeing that Xu Sheng did not intend to explain further, Shangguan Lin bit her tender thin lips unwillingly...
Resigned, she closed her beautiful eyes, and the room fell into a long-absent calm...
A night passed without words...
...
The next day, just as dawn broke and the first rays of sunlight entered the room...
Xu Sheng and Shangguan Lin opened their eyes almost simultaneously...
The former, with his ink-colored pupils, glanced at Shangguan Lin and said softly, "Shangguan, are you awake?"
Being able to take her out of the Evil Spirit Sect earlier would be safer!
After all, the Elders and the Sect Master of the Evil Spirit Sect were not good characters; it was not impossible for them to secretly order someone to harm her!
Shangguan Lin blinked her once sparkling eyes, now devoid of luster, and said in a very bland tone, "Yes, I'm awake."
Xu Sheng slowly got up, saying casually, "Then I'll take you out of the Evil Spirit Sect now."
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Lin gave him a cold look and refused, "There's no need, we're nothing to each other, and besides, I have legs and can walk on my own!"
She didn't want to have any further entanglement with this man, even preferring if she were ambushed after leaving the Evil Spirit Sect rather than having him come to her rescue...
Xu Sheng replied as gently as possible, "Shangguan, don't be a child..."
Before he could finish, Shangguan Lin interrupted coldly, "I don't want to hear your voice, and don't follow me!"
Having said that, she ignored Xu Sheng, pushed open the door of the room, and left indifferently...
Xu Sheng shook his head, naturally concealing his aura, and stealthily followed her...
...
When Shangguan Lin reached the front gate of the Evil Spirit Sect, she suddenly halted, slowly turning around. Her beautiful eyes surveyed the scene filled with the stench of blood, seemingly searching for a certain figure...
However, she found nothing!
She chuckled bitterly to herself, "So, you're really not coming to see me off? Better this way..."
Having finished speaking, the gatekeeper Elder and several disciples of the Evil Spirit Sect opened the gate...
Shangguan Lin said indifferently, "Thank you, Elder Xie."
```
After she finished speaking, she walked out without any longing and disappeared from everyone's sight...
As the Elder of the Evil Spirit Sect watched her leaving figure, his cold eyes revealed a hint of surprise...
He pondered silently, "Elder Xu didn't send her off? This is a good opportunity!"
If Xu Sheng were here, it might be a bit troublesome, but now that he's not, there's no need to hold back...
With that thought, he decisively signaled to several Xie Ling Sect disciples with a glance...
The disciples understood and stealthily entered the nearby forest...
This Elder of the Evil Spirit Sect helplessly shook his head, lamenting, "Elder Xu, I can't blame myself for this; it was the Sect Master's order, alas!"
He hadn't intended to take action, but he couldn't defy the orders of the Sect Master of the Xie Ling Sect!
Little did he know, everything that was transpiring was within Xu Sheng's view...
Hidden in the shadows, his tone gradually turned ice-cold, "It's not so peaceful after all..."
...
Shangguan Lin, who hadn't gone far in the forest, suddenly sensed frantic footsteps and multiple thick murderous intents coming from behind her...
Her beautiful eyes turned cold instantly, "Who?"
But she already had an inkling of the identity of the comers...
Under the cover of the trees, several Xie Ling Sect disciples emerged with unfriendly expressions, their gaze fixed on Shangguan Lin!
They coldly said, "Since you've discovered us, there's no need for us to hide anymore!"
"We are here to kill you, no need to say more, right?"
"However, given your looks, we could have some fun with you before you die"
"Do you want to die? This woman has cultivated the Yang Harvesting and Yin Nourishing Technique, she could suck you dry in minutes!"
"No worries, no worries, we can still savor her after she's dead; it's the same!"
Hearing their unabashedly evil words, Shangguan Lin's beautiful eyes sparkled with intense murderous intent as she coldly shouted, "We'll see if you have the skills for that!"
It seemed she had no chance of leaving this place today!
The Xie Ling Sect disciples opposite her licked their thin lips at her words, saying, "Tsk tsk tsk, we are several at the Void Refining Stage! It will be easy to deal with just one of you
"Attack! Stop the chatter! I can't wait to taste this woman!"
Following their words, the disciples of the Evil Spirit Sect burst forth with terrifying speed, charging at Shangguan Lin!
Seeing them attack, Shangguan Lin silently invoked, "Earth-tier Martial Technique, Charm!"
In an instant, her eyes emitted a bewitchingly strange halo, engaging them with her gaze...
The unsuspecting Xie Ling Sect disciples' eyes briefly glowed, but the light quickly faded, returning to normal as they continued to dive towards Shangguan Lin...
They said contemptuously, "Insignificant skill! You should have seen the level of your cultivation!"
"Earth-grade Superior Martial Technique, Scorching Sun Slash!"
"Earth Grade Low-Grade Martial Skill, Bone-Severing Hand!"
"Earth-grade Superior Martial Technique, Sinister Bone Claw!"
Terrifying might continually radiated from them, and in the blink of an eye, they were upon Shangguan Lin...
Their concentrated attacks bombarded towards her, and once hit, her body might be smashed into a pulpy mess!!
In this moment of crisis, Shangguan Lin urgently cried out, "Black Mist!"
Her entire being quietly transformed into a black mist, evading the terrifying attacks...
For a while, she was put on the defensive...
