Lu Ying just looked at Xia Xi like that, and with a faint smile, she said, "You are much stronger than I imagined, but also a lot more foolish, hehe... I just wonder how long you can hold on?"
With that, Lu Ying looked around at the other people in the courtyard and asked with a smile, "What do you think, how long can my dear sister last? Ten breaths, a hundred breaths? The time it takes for an incense stick to burn? Or longer?"
No one answered. At that moment, everyone was too scared to speak.
Lu Ying's methods were truly too cruel.
"I'm asking you a question. What, are you all deaf?" Lu Ying scoffed.
Immediately, the heads of the various major families in the courtyard seemed to snap back to reality and hastily said:
"Ten breaths!"
"Ten breaths!"
"T...Ten breaths!"
.........
"Sister Xi, nobody seems to have faith in you!" Lu Ying said with a light smile, "You better step it up!"
Xia Xi remained silent.
But her delicate body had begun to tremble.
