"What are you doing here? Surely you didn't come to take revenge?"
Li Hao frowned, puzzled. He did not think their enmity ran so deep that she would risk her life to kill him.
Besides, this was the Human Race's border. How had she slipped in?
"I happened to be leaving, and I ran into you on my way out, so I thought I'd say hello."
Mi Xueyao smiled with utter carefree ease, lightly winding a lock of hair beside her shoulder around her finger as she said:
"I didn't get the chance to ask earlier. You knew my identity all along. Were you planning to bring me inside and then expose me?"
Her question seemed casual, but her eyes narrowed slightly. Li Hao sensed a hint of danger. If he answered poorly, she might lash out in anger.
"That was my plan earlier. You know, I'm human. The hatred between our races leaves no room for coexistence!"
Li Hao said.
A chill flashed through Mi Xueyao's eyes, and her lips curved into a cold smile. "Yet you still revealed your special ability to strengthen your primordial spirit by eating Ancient Demon flesh. If word of that power got out, not only would the Ancient Demon Clan make you their number-one target, plenty of humans would grow jealous and try to assassinate you too, wouldn't they?"
"What's more, if the emperor-level experts among humans found out, they might investigate your secret and lock you away!"
"You won't tell anyone anyway. Only you and I know about this."
Li Hao said.
Mi Xueyao froze briefly. Her eyes shifted as she gazed at Li Hao. "How do you know I won't reveal it? Do you trust me that much?"
"You could say that."
Li Hao's expression did not change.
*Trust her... how
