Tu Xiupei howled in despair with tears streaming down her face. "So what if I become stronger? She is my sister. She has her own alchemist. And she is backed by the Wargod and the whole of South Winds Nation. No matter how strong I become, I can never be as strong as the whole nation, can I?" she sobbed. "No matter how strong I become, I will never be half as fearless or heartless as my sister."
Tu Xiupei fell to her knees then curled up, crying, "I...I am no longer clean. I am too ashamed to live. Besides…"
Qi Shujie's face darkened immediately as he icily ordered his subordinates, "I don't want anybody to come within one mile of us without my explicit instructions."
"Yes, sir," his followers replied.
Seeing how hopeless Tu Xiupei was, Qi Shujie was utterly vexed. This woman before him, the apple of his eye, was now humiliated and stripped of all her dignity. The only thing in his mind now was to kill those who had hurt her.
