[v]Laugh at me for being a loser? You'll all kneel down after you awaken your talent!

"You...how dare you!" The maid who had been standing beside Feng Yu turned pale with fright at the bloody scene. "How dare you be so insolent in front of His Highness the Prince..."

"Shut up!" Bai Huang was furious. The dagger in her hand flew out with a strange force, grazing the noisy maid's cheek and embedding itself deeply in the wall behind her.

"Want to save him some trouble? Fine, how about I pull your tooth instead?"

The maid glanced at Feng Yu in alarm, but seeing that he had no intention of helping her, she could only bite her lip and dare not utter another word.

"Speak!" Bai Huang kicked Er Sheng hard in the chest, just as ruthlessly as when he kicked her off the cliff and broke her ribs.

“In…in Xiaoman’s hands…” Ersheng coughed weakly, his voice barely audible.

Xiaoman huddled in the corner, trembling as she watched all of this.

He was already thin, and now he looked even more pitiful.

Bai Huang vaguely remembered that the person who hesitated to kick her off was the one in front of her.

"Where's my jade pendant? Give it back to me!" Bai Huang took a deep breath, barely suppressing her anger. "If you hand over the jade pendant, I won't pursue the matter further."

One thing at a time, this person still retains some conscience.

"Okay...okay." Xiaoman cautiously reached into her bosom.

However, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his lowered eyes.

In an instant, Bai Huang's expression changed drastically.

Her intuition, honed over years of experience as a secret agent, made her instinctively dodge to the side.

A knife the size of a fingernail grazed her cheek, its tip gleaming an eerie black, clearly coated with deadly poison.

"You're courting death!" A cold glint flashed in Bai Huang's eyes.

She darted forward and kicked Xiaoman hard in the chest.

Xiaoman slammed heavily against the wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Bai Huang's last shred of pity vanished completely.

Indeed, when faced with self-interest, human nature cannot withstand the test.

She raised her dagger, about to deliver a fatal blow to Xiaoman.

"Killing is forbidden inside Lingbao Tower!" A stern shout suddenly rang out.

Bai Huang felt an invisible force bounce her away, and she fell heavily to the ground.

She coldly surveyed her surroundings. "Who is it?"

"Young lady, killing is forbidden inside Lingbao Tower; that's the rule." Feng Yu's tone remained gentle, showing no change in attitude despite Bai Huang's fierceness.

"Is that so?" Bai Huang's tone softened slightly. "Then let's give Lingbao Tower some face..."

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly rushed towards Xiaoman.

Taking advantage of the moment the resistance disappeared, Bai Huang raised her hand and slashed Xiao Man's throat.

Blood gushed out, splattering half of her face!

"You!" the voice rang out again.

An overwhelming pressure, far exceeding Bai Huang's strength, pressed down heavily. Bai Huang felt her internal organs churning, but she still stood tall, like a phoenix that never bowed its head.

"You dare to give me attitude?" Bai Huang sneered, flicking the blood off her dagger. "Old man, when he tried to kill me, you pretended to be deaf and dumb, but now that I'm taking his life, you jump out? Just because his surname is Bai, do you think you can bully me?"

"How dare you be so rude, you little brat?" The voice grew increasingly furious and oppressive. "Do you even know who I am?"

"I don't care who you are!" Bai Huang's forehead was beaded with sweat, but she didn't back down. "In my eyes, there are only two kinds of people and things in this world."

"It's either what I want to do, or what I don't want to do. It's either someone I hate, or someone I like. There's never a middle ground, old man. Which one do you think you are?"

Being repeatedly called "old guy" enraged the man beyond measure, and his oppressive aura surged forth like a tidal wave.

Bai Huang felt like her bones were about to be crushed.

Suddenly, she felt a tingling sensation on her scalp, as if a magical power was about to erupt.

"Old man of Lingbao Tower!" A furious shout suddenly rang out, instantly dispelling the oppressive aura.

A figure walked in through the doorway, standing against the light, his silhouette revealing his unparalleled beauty.

His gaze fell on Bai Huang, his brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.

"I seem to have forgotten to remind you, no one but me is allowed to touch this woman!"
