Chapter 574: Chapter 574 The Forbidden Taboo of the Crazy Woman_1"Should... should I just go around from the side?"
Xian Qianling’s voice was obviously lower than usual, her brows slightly drooped, finally revealing an expression that befit a girl—fear.
"Going around would take at least half an hour!" Looking down at Xian Qianling from above, a smug smile suddenly appeared on your face, "Hey, heh heh..."
"What are you laughing at?" Xian Qianling looked up and glared at you.
"Yo, yo-yo-yo, tsk tsk tsk..." You annoyingly adopted the nagging tone of a nosy aunt, "Could it be that our Yuhang detective, the Overlord Flower, is afraid of heights?"
"Afraid? The word ’afraid’ has never existed in this miss’s dictionary!" Xian Qianling bolstered her emotions, lifting her pretty and delicate face to stare you down.
With a raised eyebrow, you said with a chuckle, "If you’re not afraid, then come on up, why don’t you?"
"Hmph, hmph, hmph."
After three successive hmphs, Xian Qianling seemed to have made a major life decision, mustering the courage to step onto the spiral Magic Seal and began to climb upward, step by step.
"Hmm, not bad, that’s the Overlord Flower for you."
You cheerfully watched Xian Qianling as she approached, but as she climbed higher, her breathing became more rapid, pausing after each step, her hands clenched into fists, her whole body taut.
"Don’t look down."
"I know that without you telling me!"
She had always been a girl who prided herself on her strength, especially after witnessing Zhao’er’s extraordinary abilities, she felt a sense of loss in her heart.
Ever since she had clarified her feelings towards you, Xian Qianling would often compare herself with Zhao’er, and Wu Qiyi.
Generally speaking, each of the three had their own merits, and it was hard to say who was the best.
Yet, today Zhao’er delivered two profound blows to her, making Xian Qianling suddenly feel her position was in dire peril. It was for this reason that she was so eager to prove herself, to show that she was not inferior to Zhao’er!
"Huff... huff..."
After a struggle, having covered two-thirds of the distance, Xian Qianling was already drenched in sweat.
She continued to regulate her breathing while telling herself not to be afraid, to overcome the fear!
Just like always, she stretched out her hands to rest on her knees, slowed her breathing, and allowed her overly tense muscles to relax.
The spiral Magic Seal was just a halo of light, nearly transparent, so when Xian Qianling bent over, it was natural for her to glance downward briefly. But that single look made her head spin, her body sway, and then she began to topple sideways.
"Be careful!"
Seeing Xian Qianling’s body about to fall from the height of more than ten meters, you who were only three stairs away, leapt down fiercely, reaching out just in time to grab her right arm and pulled her into your arms.
"Hey, Crazy Woman, are you alright?"
"I, I..."
Xian Qianling’s eyes rolled back, and she fainted in your arms.
With a somewhat helpless shake of your head, you picked her up in a princess carry and quickly leapt to the top of the stone wall.
Holding Xian Qianling, you came to a shady spot under some trees and laid her gently on the soft grass, then placed your palm, glowing green, gently on her forehead.
"Mmm..."
Soon Xian Qianling murmured semi-consciously, "Don’t... don’t leave me behind... I know... I’m not as good as her... but I, I..."
As her breathing gradually steadied, Xian Qianling’s emotions also calmed down.
You looked at her sweet sleeping posture and couldn’t help but sigh softly. Then you looked up at Zhao’er and asked her, "Zhao’er, what do you think I should do?"
Surprisingly, Zhao’er didn’t answer; she continued to look at you with her indifferent gaze.
You covered your forehead with your hand, looking somewhat headachy. You decided not to immediately
Seeing Xian Qianling reveal such a demeanor for the first time, you quickly spoke up to comfort her: "The past is already past, don’t be upset."
Xian Qianling shook her head slightly, tears already brimming in her eyes: "It’s all my fault; if I hadn’t insisted on buying that doll, had that conflict with the boy, we would have left the mall earlier and wouldn’t have encountered such a thing!"
As you walked, hearing this, you shuddered uncontrollably, disbelief flickering in your eyes!
Because Xian Qianling’s words involuntarily brought to your mind the memory of an event from when you were five!
