Shi Yaoguang said with an especially innocent expression, "I’m not changing the subject, you really did burn my ears."
Looking at her dead-serious face, Shi Yiqing felt nothing but frustration, "Shi Yaoguang!"
"Come now, don’t call me like that," Shi Yaoguang glanced at her lightly, her disdainful eyes said it all, "You calling my name like that makes me feel like... my name has been defiled."
Shi Yiqing gritted her teeth, "Stop talking nonsense with me, did you or did you not kill Master Uta?"
"Master Uta?" Yaoguang’s eyes narrowed, "Just from the name I can tell he’s no good guy, but... I’ve never met any Master Uta. Don’t get me wrong, it’s impossible for me to know him."
Shi Yiqing refused to believe her, "Really?"
"Fake," Shi Yaoguang scoffed, "I truly haven’t seen Master Uta, but..."
"If any misfortune befell him, perhaps, it’s merely a case of him asking for trouble!"
"It was you after all!" Shi Yiqing looked into her eyes, which were now fierce enough to shoot out flames.
Shi Yaoguang raised an eyebrow, "If you hadn’t provoked me first, I wouldn’t have considered removing a menace to the people, would I?"
Shi Yiqing bit her lip, a hint of madness in her eyes, "You forced me into this, it’s all because of you!"
"Had it not been for you, I wouldn’t have needed to do any of this."
"Shi Yaoguang, why did you have to come back? Why did you have to take everything that was mine? If not for you, I wouldn’t have turned out ..."
Watching Shi Yiqing’s deranged behavior, Shi Yaoguang sneered, "Are you sure this is my problem?"
"It is your problem!"
Her voice was so shrill it seemed it could pierce through one’s eardrums, "Shi Yaoguang, why don’t you just die? If you were dead, everything could return to how it was, and I’d still be the Shi Family’s only beloved daughter, and all the glory would be mine."
"No, you’re mistaken," Shi Yaoguang interrupted her politely, "Going back to the beginning, what belongs to you is only the most primitive of sins."
Shi Yiqing refused to believe it, "Nonsense!"
"Without you, I’d still be the envied daughter of a great house!"
"It’s all because of you, you stole everything that was mine when you came back, none of this would’ve happened if it weren’t for you!"
Her eyes were already filled with bloodshot veins, "It’s all your fault, all your fault..."
Looking at her , Yaoguang frowned, "You..."
But Shi Yiqing wouldn’t listen to her words, her eyes glinting with an eerie red, she looked terrifying, "Go die!"
As she spoke, she gestured as if to grab at Shi Yaoguang.
Shi Yaoguang, observing the extraordinary speed, frowned, lifted her leg, and with a forceful kick, sent Shi Yiqing flying away.
At the same time, a bad premonition arose within her.
The real challenge was about to emerge.
No matter what, Shi Yiqing was the heroine chosen by Heavenly Dao.
Her existence, in a sense, symbolizes the very meaning of Heavenly Dao itself.
If the aura of the heroine chosen by Heavenly Dao were to vanish, Heavenly Dao would inevitably be affected.
Heavenly Dao most certainly would not welcome this.
That was the reason behind Shi Yiqing’s counterattack.
The anomaly Shi Yiqing just displayed was definitely Heavenly Dao playing its hand in the dark.
Yaoguang had been through such incidents before.
And there was only one outcome.
She was overwhelmingly victorious.
Even though she encountered some minor setbacks along the way, the final result remained unchanged.
Shi Yiqing was kicked away.
Only when seated on the ground did she realize what she had done.
Then, she looked at Shi Yaoguang with disbelief in her eyes.
Two seconds later, she mumbled in disbelief, "No... no..."
"You are not Shi Yaoguang!"
As she finished speaking, her eyes no longer held any confusion.
Seeing this, Shi Yaoguang hooked her lips, "I am not Shi Yaoguang?"
Shi Yiqing said with conviction, "You are definitely not Shi Yaoguang! Shi Yaoguang doesn’t have your skills!"
She muttered to herself, "I should have thought of it earlier; Shi Yaoguang couldn’t possibly be as formidable as you. If she had your abilities, she wouldn’t have been suppressed by me from the start..."
As she spoke, she suddenly demanded, "Who are you, really? Why are you impersonating her?"
"Hehe." Shi Yaoguang burst out laughing, "It’s interesting what you’re saying. If I’m not Shi Yaoguang, then who, according to you, am I?"
"I... I don’t know..." She murmured, shaking her head, "I don’t know, I don’t know who you are..."
Watching her bewildered expression, Shi Yaoguang was about to say something when Lin Ruixue screamed and rushed over.
Lin Ruixue ran to Shi Yiqing’s side and helped her to stand, "Qingqing, are you okay? Did Shi Yaoguang hit you?"
Shi Yiqing glanced at her and clutched her arm tightly, "Ruixue, she... she is not Shi Yaoguang!"
She pointed at Shi Yaoguang, speaking as if she were possessed, "She is not Shi Yaoguang; Shi Yaoguang isn’t like her, she must be a fraud impersonating her..."
Although she also felt that Shi Yaoguang had changed a lot, she had never considered the possibility that Shi Yaoguang might not actually be Shi Yaoguang.
She even thought that Shi Yiqing had lost her mind.
Shi Yaoguang is Shi Yaoguang, how could she not be?
But Shi Yiqing was very adamant, "She is not Shi Yaoguang, she really isn’t Shi Yaoguang!"
Hearing her tone, Lin Ruixue also began to hesitate.
As she was thinking this, she suddenly heard Shi Yaoguang laugh.
At the sound of the laugh, Lin Ruixue’s heart tightened.
She felt an inexplicable fear of Shi Yaoguang.
She didn’t know why she feared her; every time she faced her, there was always a subtle unease.
In the past, she had tried hard to forget this feeling.
She thought that by forgetting, she could act as if she felt nothing at all.
The feeling was like oppression and rebound.
She had suppressed it before, but now it was rebounding, which made her even more afraid.
Shi Yiqing was unaware of what Lin Ruixue was thinking, she grasped Lin Ruixue’s hand firmly, and said with determination, "Shi Yaoguang is an impostor, come, let’s expose her together!"
Lin Ruixue hesitated, "That’s impossible, right?"
Shi Yiqing looked at her displeased, her eyes filled with resentment, "What’s impossible? She’s just a fraud!"
Lin Ruixue was still unwilling to believe it.
"Qingqing, are you perhaps too tense?"
"I’m not tense!" Shi Yiqing jerked her hand away from Lin Ruixue’s, "Have you been bought by her?"
Lin Ruixue instinctively denied it, "How could I possibly be afraid?"
"Good, since you’re not afraid of her, then join me!" Shi Yiqing laughed almost hysterically, "Together, we will expose her, strip away her false skin, and leave her with nowhere to hide, wouldn’t that be good?"
