Xia Tong restrained her emotions, but she did not plan to let the Zhou family go just like that. Although Gu Man’s words might not be fake, she believed that it was impossible for Zhou Yan to not care about the Zhou family.
“Even if you don’t care, I don’t believe that the person beside you doesn’t care either.” She looked smug and her gaze shifted from Gu Man to Zhou Yan.
“Since you chose Zhou Yan, it proves that you still care about her. I don’t believe that you won’t save her family,” Xia Tong said confidently. Although the most important victim had been let go, she believed that these people could still be a threat.
Chu An also reacted belatedly. In order to regain his face in front of Zhou Yan, he immediately raised his voice and said, “Zhou Yan, don’t tell me you won’t even save your family? But I think it’s because you could abandon the Zhou family once before. You might be able to abandon the Zhou family this time.” Zhou Yan clenched her fists by her sides. Chu An really had the cheek to say such things. Who was the reason why she left the Zhou Family back then?
Fortunately, Zhou Yan already knew Chu An’s true colors. When she heard this, other than being angry, she could not feel any sadness.
“Heh, Chu An, how can you say such shameless words?” Zhou Yan mocked bluntly.
Seeing Chu An’s face turn green for a while, she felt especially happy.
However, after scolding him, she looked at Zhou Ping, who was sitting there, with heartache in her eyes. If not for her, how could Zhou Ping have fallen to such a state?
She looked at Gu Man beside her and did not intend to trouble her because she had already caused too much trouble. She was a little embarrassed to speak again.
“Master, you can leave first. Leave this to me. This is our personal grudge.” Zhou Yan made up her mind and said to Gu Man.
However, Gu Man did not respond to her. Instead, she stared at Xia Tong.
The reason why they did not directly save Zhou Ping was because they had concerns in their hearts. Moreover, this was also Xia Tong’s concern. They could not casually display their spells in front of ordinary people, so Xia Tong’s only guarantee was gone. She could only threaten them.
Although they could not brazenly fight, she could still pull cheap tricks behind her back.
Zhou Ping looked fine now, but Xia Tong might have done something bad behind their backs.
This Xia Tong had lived from that era until now. Even if her memories were blurry, she had mastered many spells. Her incomplete memories might really not be able to resolve those spells.
During the fight, she could rely on her powerful spiritual power to get rid of everything. However, if Xia Tong really played some tricks and deliberately hid them, it would probably take her a long time to crack them.
The reason why she admitted that her relationship with Zhou Ping was not good was also because of this consideration. This way, Xia Tong would probably not bother to use those methods on Zhou Ping. After all, this person could not threaten her.
At the thought of this, Gu Man looked at Zhou Yan. “Since you’ve already said so, 1 can’t stay here anymore. You guys can settle the rest yourselves.”
With that, she was about to walk out.
Xia Tong clearly did not expect Gu Man to do this at all. She called out to her in a panic, “You’re leaving just like that. Aren’t you here to save her? You didn’t even save her. How can you leave?”
Because there were still outsiders here, it was not easy for Xia Tong to use spells. It was not that there were any taboos, but it was difficult to explain if they were exposed. Moreover, she did not know spells to clear memory. Moreover, the laws of this era were so strict, she did not want to stand out too much.
It was still a headache for those police officers to pester her.
She glanced at Zhou Ping beside her. She did not expect this person to really not be of any threat. Was their relationship already so bad?
She had originally planned to use some spells on Zhou Ping, but now it seemed that there was no need to consume that bit of energy.
If only she could catch Zhou Yan. She did not believe that Zhou Yan could not threaten Gu Man..
