Although Xiao Xiao had never held much affection for the so-called Saint Heir of the Wuji Immortal Palace, she never expected him to flee alone without a moment's hesitation—the very man who had pursued her relentlessly, showering her with affection and vowing to go through fire and water for her. Initially, when the Saint Heir had bravely stepped forward, Xiao Xiao felt a glimmer of pride that he was upholding the Wuji Immortal Palace's prestige. Now, however, his actions had brought nothing but complete disgrace to the Palace's name.
Xiao Xiao had no time to dwell on it, however. She was facing immense pressure from two lesser demons, one of which was on the verge of a breakthrough. With her strength, it wasn't impossible to shake them off and escape the venue. But Ye Qingchen was still fighting a lesser demon alone for the sake of humanity. Xiao Xiao knew that if she fled, these two demons would immediately pounce on him.
