In the courtyard, Nangong Lingya had already panicked. After pacing back and forth a few times, she quickly walked towards her steed.
"I'm leaving first. You all stop that guy. Make sure he doesn't catch up to me!"
"Miss Nangong, do we still need to fear him? Even if he catches up, what then?"
Nangong Heng said unconcernedly.
Nangong Lingya glared at him, her voice cold, "What are you saying? Even if he catches up, what then? Didn't you just investigate and find out that he is now the top figure in Forest City?"
"If he had no strength, could he sit in the top position? Are his current power and status not all achieved through his own effort? If you encounter him and manage to escape unscathed, it would already be a blessing!"
Nangong Heng continued, "Miss, I may have misspoken. I mean, you are the cherished daughter of the Nangong family. Even if he finds you, he wouldn't dare lay a hand on you."
"Hmph, are you asking me to gamble with my life?"
