However, Xue Yunrou paused in place, showing no intention to move forward.
Tingtian Ao glanced back, but didn't seem the least bothered, "Miss Xue, don't forget the oath you've made. You can choose not to go, but then forget about what Master Chenghuang promised you.
Also don't forget that even though Li Xuan might currently be weak in terms of his cultivation, he's more important than you in this Netherworld Prison. The focus of this mission is him for very specific reasons. Master Chenghuang wouldn't have just sent him here without cause."
"Him?" Xue Yunrou's gaze turned back to Li Xuan, her eyes filled with doubt and distrust.
She had no hard feelings towards Li Xuan, on the contrary, she had a slight admiration for him. Especially since the various things he had done recently had caused her to revisit her impression on him. This mission, however, is too dangerous and Xue Yunrou genuinely felt worried.
