Chapter 112: Chapter 112 Bla
Li Lu and Qian Wang had no intention of releasing Ma Qin and letting her continue to offend people. However, for so reason, under Zhong Nianyao’s indifferent gaze, they had found themselves complying against their will.
Once Ma Qin regained her freedom, she stepped forward and looked at Zhong Nianyao with undiminished venom in her eyes, “Don’t think that I won’t hate you just because of this. If it wasn’t for your delayed intervention, how could I have ended up injured like this? I will never forgive you.”
As soon as these words ca out, Uncle Li and the others found themselves at a loss for words when they looked at Ma Qin. They couldn’t believe there was such a person in the world.
Even Zhao Si and the others were dumbfounded after hearing these words.
“Oh, I see,” Nianyao nodded, “Don’t worry about it. If we encounter danger later on, I definitely won’t lift a finger to save you again. That way, you won’t need to worry about being too slow to act.”
Because she wouldn’t take any action at all.
...
“Lady Zhong, that’s not what she ant.”
Zhao Si was sowhat anxious, quickly trying to explain, “We have never complained about you acting too late. On the contrary, we are grateful that you were willing to help at all, why would we bear any resentnt?”
Even if they did feel resentful, now was absolutely not the ti to express it.
Ma Qin, this foolish woman, really dared to say anything. Didn’t she realize that they all still needed Zhong Nianyao’s help? So dissatisfaction must not be shown, but rather kept in the heart.
“Heh, I don’t want to know what she ant,” Nianyao spread her hands nonchalantly, “But just so you know, when I helped earlier, it wasn’t to save you. Sorry for the misunderstanding.”
“But rest assured, it won’t happen again next ti. Whether you get injured or lose your lives, it will have nothing to do with , right?”
Upon hearing this, the complexions of Zhao Si and the others changed dramatically, and they looked at Ma Qin with unstoppable reproach in their eyes. They even regretted bringing Ma Qin with them. She was truly a liability rather than an asset.
Due to the injuries on her face, Ma Qin had nearly lost her sanity, and she verbally lashed out without much thought, “Are you even human? How can you stand by and watch people die?”
“Do we have so sort of relationship?” Nianyao found it laughable, “Is there a rule that says I must save you? Moreover, I think you still haven’t figured out who you are!”
“You’re just a Tomb Robber, do you seriously expect to act with conscience here?”
“You—” Ma Qin was choked with anger, “Alright, if I’m going to die, I’ll be sure to drag you to hell with .”
She wasn’t just talking tough; she really had such intentions. If she was going to die, she would definitely not make it easy for Zhong Nianyao.
“You’re welco to try,” Nianyao scoffed, “As long as you can get through to , then you win.”
At her words, Ma Qin’s face grew even uglier, her features twisted further.
With a “Slap!” Zhao Si stepped forward and slapped Ma Qin across the face, “Shut your mouth.”
Ma Qin did not expect that Zhao Si, her companion, would not only fail to defend her but now stood on Zhong Nianyao’s side. However, when Ma Qin saw the sinister look in Zhao Si’s eyes, she dared not say anything further.
At this mont, her previously lost sanity had sowhat recovered.
Zhao Si ignored Ma Qin and turned to apologize to Nianyao, “Lady Zhong, it’s all Ma Qin’s fault, she doesn’t think before she speaks. Please don’t take offense, we’ll still rely on you for the journey ahead!”
“I won’t be taking care of you,” Nianyao’s tone was still firm, “This isn’t a discussion, it’s a statent of fact.”
Zhao Si’s face darkened as well, but thinking of Nianyao’s mysterious abilities, he had no choice but to suppress his displeasure and said flattering, “eting here must be fate, why must Lady Zhong talk like this? Besides, in the General’s Tomb, every corner is fraught with crisis, we need to cooperate more than ever to succeed, right?”
“And, although we are not as powerful as you, we dare say we know much more about this General’s Tomb.”
“Only by combining our strengths can we maximize our gains, can’t we?”
“You make a good point.”
Nianyao nodded her head, then continued, with Zhao Si looking on expectantly, “It’s just unfortunate that I have no interest whatsoever. And as for those so-called treasures inside the General’s Tomb, I really don’t care much for them.”
“Stop pretending to be above it all.”
Seeing Nianyao’s deanor as if she didn’t care about anything, Ma Qin couldn’t control her emotions and began to taunt her, “If you really don’t want anything, why bother coming down into the tomb at all? Always so adept at putting on an act, playing saint when you’re anything but.”
“If you can’t speak properly, then don’t speak rashly,” Nianyao retorted, swinging her hand and sending a talisman paper directly towards Ma Qin.
The mont the talisman paper touched Ma Qin, it imdiately burst into fierce flas. The fire spread all over Ma Qin’s body.
After seeing Nianyao’s actions, everyone felt a chill when they looked at Ma Qin writhing and screaming in pain on the ground.
Zhao Si and the rest, while they wanted to make excuses for Ma Qin, didn’t dare say anything more.
At this mont, Ma Qin was between fire and water, feeling the high heat of the flas and deep, bone-piercing pain radiating through her body.
She kept screaming loudly as if doing so could drive the pain away.
Watching Ma Qin’s pitiful state, Zhao Si and the others felt an even colder chill and looked at Nianyao with full-blown fear.
In only a mont, the flas on Ma Qin’s body had vanished, but besides the wounds inflicted by the Mao Jiang, there were no other burn marks on her body.
This made people wonder just how much of her agonized screaming was an act since she had no other wounds.
And unlike before, after experiencing that pain, Ma Qin still harbored resentnt towards Nianyao, but more than that, there was a strong sense of fear.
