Can You Withstand This Shot of Mine?

"Soyana, what are you doing?"

Xiao Nan leaped out of the mist, landing between Soyana and Xiao Luo.

Soyana remained calm and replied with a question, "What am I doing? Is it that hard to guess?"

Xiao Nan glanced back at Xiao Luo. Seeing that he had merely been dragged into a dream and was not in any mortal danger, she finally let out a breath of relief.

"Can't you go torment someone else?" Xiao Nan frowned, her delicate brows knitting together. "You can't kill this person."

For once, a flicker of anger crossed Soyana's cold face. "Can't kill this one, can't kill that one—then who can I kill? Why don't you go deal with Her?"

"I don't dare," Xiao Nan answered honestly.

Soyana had wanted to make a few sarcastic remarks, but Xiao Nan's sincere answer left her momentarily speechless.

The two fell silent for a while.

Xiao Nan spoke up. "Do you really have to absorb other people's power? You could cultivate slowly too."

Soyana shook her head. "No. I can't wait that long."

Xiao Nan asked, "You're afraid? Afraid they'll catch up to you?"

Soyana gave a cold snort but did not answer.

"I don't care what you think. You can't kill Xiao Luo." Xiao Nan planted her hands on her hips and lifted her chin. "Otherwise, none of us gets to live."

Soyana was puzzled. "He has nothing to do with you. Why do you care whether he lives or dies?"

"If he dies, big brother will be sad," Xiao Nan explained. "You can't kill anyone from our South City."

"Heh..."

Hearing that, Soyana was so angry she laughed. "How long have you even known them? How long have you known me? If I hadn't stepped in, She would have devoured you a hundred thousand years
