Editor: Henyee Translations

“I-I don’t know…”

Qiao Xuan fixed him with a cold stare, making the man’s scalp prickle. “I genuinely don’t know! Our orders were to bring Madam here. We’re kept in the dark about everything else…”

“Seems reasonable that someone like you, toiling away at menial tasks, wouldn’t be privy to much information. I’ll take your word for it. Consider yourselves fortunate; the heavens are merciful. Your lives won’t be forfeit today.”

Walking up to him, Qiao Xuan produced a dagger from her spatial storage and sliced through half of the rattan. Calmly, she instructed, “Free yourself and put in some hard work. Two hours should suffice.”

The man hadn’t expected such leniency from Qiao Xuan. With a glimmer of hope, he nodded vigorously. “Yes, yes, thank you, Madam Shao!”

...
Qiao Xuan sneered and moved away. The man, relieved but cautious, hurriedly started freeing himself, fearing she might change her mind and dispatch her men to finish the job.

Qiao Xuan unleashed her superpower, spreading it across the area. Suddenly, a sharp pain pierced her head. Grunting, she clutched her temples, seeking support from a nearby tree.

After a while, she sighed in relief, slowly regaining composure. She had retracted her superpower, recognizing that she had likely strained herself by using it excessively. Continued use could jeopardize her physical well-being.

It became clear she needed to exercise caution and minimize superpower usage for the time being. In releasing it earlier, she hadn’t reached the forest’s edge, leaving her disoriented about the closest direction to Yanzhou.

Qiao Xuan grumbled inwardly. These people moved too swiftly, covering quite a distance on foot.

However…

She beamed and gazed in a specific direction.

Her luck had always been on her side. Even if she hadn’t found the right path, she stumbled upon someone she knew.

Unexpectedly, it was Xie Jingrong!

It had been two years since their last encounter, right? Mr. Xie, draped in white, exuded an aura of gentle elegance. A sense of familiarity washed over Qiao Xuan at the sight of her old friend.

Xie Jingrong, along with Xie Dong, Xie Xi, and an unfamiliar servant, stood in front of a waterfall about 15 miles away. The cascading water created a rumbling sound, and the surroundings were picturesque. Xie Jingrong stood contemplatively in front of the waterfall, seemingly there to appreciate the mountain scenery.

With them in close proximity, Qiao Xuan knew that the master and servant likely knew the way out. Locating them would solve her predicament.

Although she couldn’t use her superpowers to navigate the forest, periodic checks on Xie Jingrong’s position were still within her capabilities.

Guided by her superpower, Qiao Xuan moved towards Xie Jingrong without hesitation, brimming with excitement.

The waterfall’s scenic beauty was captivating. Xie Jingrong showed no sign of immediate departure, and lunchtime was approaching. The prospect of the master and servant lingering for a meal and brief rest worked in Qiao Xuan’s favor.

Qiao Xuan’s swift pace, a task that might pose difficulties for others in the dense forest, was effortlessly managed by her.
