"You are the reason why my life and ambitions have been ruined," he held her with one hand and used the other to strangle the poor child in his arms.
The baby started crying but he didn't care about her tears until a thought popped into his head.
"I can't trust the flame sect, what if they come for me, they are too terrifying to undermine," he looked at her again.
"You will be my insurance," he removed his hands from her neck then he dipped his hands into his robe, he removed a bottle of pill then he took one of the pills and started fleeing.
She had almost gotten to her sect when she spat out blood again, she looked at the wound on her chest but the blood on it had turned dark red.
"Poison....that despicable piece of trash, he planned to kill me right from the beginning," she needed to reach the sect alive so she decided to strip herself of her cultivation in order to keep herself alive until she sees her sect leader.
