Liaoji was engaged in a verbal battle with the Demon Emperor when Daoist Master Ling Xiao focused his gaze on Mianmian, who stood beside the Demon Emperor.
As he watched her, he finally apologized, "I'm sorry, if I had arrived at your village earlier, perhaps your parents and the people of your village would not have died."
Mianmian clutched the gourd in her hand and chose to ignore Ling Xiao.
There was no point in apologizing for something that could never have happened.
Besides, she had an important task to accomplish and didn't want to engage in conversation with Ling Xiao. The task was entrusted to her by the imperial concubine Sister; if she failed to complete it, the imperial concubine would be very disappointed.
