It all went smoothly. Qi Feifei kept him occupied as they made their way toward the Hengduan Mountain Range. She had a vague feeling that Lei Dong had come back from that direction. Though she didn't quite understand why he had been on the far side of the Hengduan Mountain Range. That place was the boundless, most dangerous region of the Great Desert.
Unfortunately, trouble struck before she had traveled even halfway. The young master she had so easily led around by the nose finally lost patience and proposed that he and Qi Feifei cultivate together. If he broke through to the Golden Core Realm sooner, he'd have a better chance of escaping. How could Qi Feifei possibly agree to such a thing? After turning him down with one excuse after another, she finally made the young master suspicious.
Qi Feifei knew that if things continued like this, she'd be exposed sooner or later. So she pretended to agree, but secretly slipped in the poison wine she had prepared years ago. After poisoning him nearly to death, she mercilessly wiped out his soul and took all the belongings he had brought along for their elopement.
What she never expected was that the young master also had an ancestor in the Nascent Soul Realm. Naturally, he had placed an ancient inherited seal on his beloved descendant. The moment the young master died, the seal would send some of the things he had seen before his death to the ancestor by strange means. Of course, the distance couldn't be too great. And the place where Qi Feifei killed him happened to be within the seal's range.
As a result, Qi Feifei's murder and cover-up were exposed. Enraged, the Hehuan Sect sent people to hunt her down and quickly uncovered the whole story.
