1285: Damn Old Woman

Damn Old Woman

Chi Jiao's interest was piqued upon seeing the old woman's smug expression. She asked anxiously, "Do you know how to take out the Heart of Time?"1

The old woman chuckled and said sinisterly, "Of course, I know. Just kill the person with the Heart of Time, right? Is that very difficult?"

"Damn old woman, you know that's not what we're asking!" Shen Xing was almost angered to death by this glib-tongued old woman.

If they could bear to do that to Lu Xian, they would have taken out the Heart of Time long ago. They wouldn't have waited until now.

"Why should I tell you? Unless you're willing to let me go, I won't tell you the truth even if I die!" The old woman straightened her neck, looking like she would rather die than submit.

Shen Xing's expression darkened. It glared at the old woman and said aggressively, "Old woman, I think you're tired of living. You're looking for trouble."

Chi Jiao raised her hand to stop Shen Xing. She shook her head gently at it, indicating for it to calm down.

No matter how annoyed Shen Xing was, it could only endure it and stand obediently beside Chi Jiao.

"Alright, I promise you. As long as you tell me the truth, I'll let you leave immediately," Chi Jiao said.

The old woman didn't expect her to agree so decisively. Thus, she doubted her. "Why should I trust you?"

"You should know very well that I'm different from She Qi. I will definitely keep my word. If you don't want to believe me, I have a way to force the truth out of you. It's just that I don't want to waste time. If you're smart, you should choose to believe me," Chi Jiao said coldly.

The old woman thought for a moment and had to admit that she made sense.

"Alright, but you have to let me out of here first." The old woman demanded.

"Little Xing, trap her in your dimension and bring her out," Chi Jiao said expressionlessly.

Shen Xing nodded. It opened the cell and placed the old woman in its mirror.

Chi Jiao held Shen Xing's hand and asked Pei Yao and Beitang Lie to accompany her to a forest on the outskirts of White City.

Beitang Lie stopped the car and looked at her in confusion. "Boss, why did you ask us to bring you here? Isn't this…"

Chi Jiao shook her head, indicating for the three of them to remain silent.

Chi Jiao led Shen Xing out of the car and asked it to let the old woman out.

Suddenly regaining her freedom, the old woman instinctively wanted to escape, but she was instantly trapped by Chi Jiao's mental power.

"I'll let you go if you tell me what you know," Chi Jiao said as she stared at the old woman.

The old woman knew very well that she was not Chi Jiao's match, so she gave up struggling and said honestly, "I accidentally overheard the conversation between She Qi and Green Demon that day. After threatening Green Demon, I learned from him that the best way to take out the Heart of Time is to kill the person who bears it. But if I want to keep the person alive, the only way is for the person to willingly hand it over."

"What if the person's life was saved by the Heart of Time? Once the Heart of Time is taken out, will her body become weak and face another life-and-death crisis?" This was Chi Jiao's biggest concern.
