I was killed by my relatives, and I am reborn to be ruthless.

This time, the man in black did not try to hide the coldness on his body. The spiritual power surrounding him suddenly became icy cold, like a sudden snowstorm, sweeping towards He Ronger's face with the momentum to destroy everything, intending to freeze her in one fell swoop.

A cold light flashed in He Ronger's eyes. She was prepared and moved quickly and accurately. She quickly took out a glowing isolation talisman from her sleeve and threw it out without hesitation.

The talisman drew a silver track in the air and expanded instantly to form an invisible barrier.

Just before the chilling cold was about to touch He Ronger's skin, the invisible wall formed by the talisman stood firmly in front of her, like an indestructible ice shield, blocking all ice attacks for her. The blizzard-like spiritual power dissipated invisibly the moment it touched the wall, and turned into cold light that fell to the ground.

"I thought you didn't dare to show up in front of me, but I didn't expect you to come to me so soon, He Lian'er."

He Ronger's voice was calm but with a hint of sarcasm. Her sharp eyes penetrated He Lianer's disguise and directly revealed her identity.

He Lian'er's face changed slightly when she heard this.

She didn't expect that even though she was wrapped so tightly, He Ronger still recognized her easily.

After a moment of surprise, she no longer concealed herself, and raised her hand decisively to take off the black veil on her head, revealing a face that was somewhat similar to He Ronger's, but more gloomy.

"He Rong'er, hand over the thing if you know what's good for you." He Lian'er's voice was low and threatening, her eyes flashing with desire and greed for that "thing".

He Ronger was a little confused when she heard this: "I don't understand what you are talking about?"

He Lian'er thought He Rong'er was pretending to be stupid, and said with a mocking smile: "Don't pretend to be stupid with me, where is my jade pendant?"

Hearing this, He Ronger's eyes flashed, and he immediately understood.

It turned out that the jade pendant with extraordinary texture and intricate patterns carved on it that Xu Chong had picked up before was actually He Lian'er's.

This discovery made her feel a little surprised and a little proud.

Thinking of this, the corners of He Ronger's mouth curled up unconsciously, revealing a smug smile.

She deliberately dragged out her voice and said with a hint of joking, "Oh, so you're talking about the jade pendant with the double phoenix pattern carved on it. It's really a nice jade pendant. I'm a little reluctant to let it go."

When He Lian'er heard this, her face changed and a hint of anxiety and anger flashed in her eyes.

She clenched her fists, resisting the urge in her heart, and growled, "Have you really seen it? Then give the jade pendant back to me! It's mine, you shouldn't possess it!"

There was unquestionable determination in her voice, and it was obvious that she attached great importance to the jade pendant.

He Lian'er's original idea was just a vague guess.

This morning, in order to avoid being tracked by an unknown force, she cleverly used the formation she was good at to shake off the tracker and temporarily gained safety.

However, not long after, she discovered in panic that her precious jade pendant had disappeared without a trace.

The jade pendant was of great significance to her, so she immediately returned along the previous route, hoping to find the lost jade pendant.

But unfortunately, despite her careful search along the way, she still could not find any trace of the jade pendant, which made her extremely anxious.

After trying many methods without success, He Lian'er decided to use the faint demonic energy remaining on the jade pendant to track its whereabouts.

This is a secret technique she learned from the jade pendant space, which can sense the faint aura related to the jade pendant.

After some effort, she was surprised to find that the last place the jade pendant appeared was Lingyun Sect, the place where she had lived briefly because of her second brother.

Since she was already quite familiar with the environment of Lingyun Sect, and when she arrived at Lingyun Sect, the disciples guarding the gate were not there, which gave her a rare opportunity.

She took the opportunity to successfully sneak into Lingyun Sect and headed straight for the main peak without hesitation.

When she followed the scent to find the main peak, she happened to see He Ronger and Sect Master Yuan standing at the door of the main peak's living room talking.

Seeing He Rong'er's familiar figure, He Lian'er's heart moved. She remembered that the style of the jade pendant was commonly used by women, so she decided to go directly to He Rong'er to bet whether her guess was correct.

Now it seems that her bet was right.

He Ronger had indeed seen the jade pendant, and judging from the smug smile on her face, she seemed to know its whereabouts.

This made He Lian'er anxious and angry.

When He Ronger saw He Lianer's expression, she felt even more proud.

She just liked to see He Lian'er being humiliated. The worse she was, the happier she felt.

"You want a jade pendant? It's not impossible." He Ronger said in a slow tone.

"what do you want?"

"I'm not as greedy as you are. You only want my blood. I just want one thing from you."

"what?"

"Your life!" When the last word was uttered, He Ronger's eyes, which had been smiling just now, suddenly became ferocious, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

He Lian'er took a step back, then sneered again: "Do you think you can take my life? Don't even think about it."

He Lian'er is very confident in her own cultivation.

Although she couldn't see clearly what He Ronger's cultivation level was now, based on the richness of the spiritual energy around He Ronger, she could more or less judge that her cultivation level was in the late stage of foundation building or even around the great perfection stage.

Normally, with her current seventh-level foundation-building cultivation, she was no match for He Ronger. But she had a backup plan. She had secretly practiced the magic arts of the demon clan for so many years, and even used her own blood to raise a poisonous insect. These were all the help she needed to turn the tide.

He Rong'er didn't waste time talking to her and immediately attacked He Lian'er: "Okay, then let's see who will win today."

He Lian'er did not retreat either, and rushed forward to meet He Rong'er's attack.

Where He Lian'er couldn't see, He Rong'er curled the corners of his mouth slightly, secretly took out a small paper bag from his arms, and threw it at He Lian'er when she wasn't paying attention.

A handful of white powder was blown all over the sky, directly covering He Lian'er's head and face.

"He Rong'er, you cheated! How dare you use medicine on me!" He Lian'er raised her hand to drive away the medicine powder in the air while shouting unconvinced.

"Oh, all's fair in war. Besides, this is not a fair challenge in the arena. Who said we can't use other people's strengths?" He Ronger didn't get angry. She smiled and took a few steps back and said.

"Also, let me correct you. What I just sprinkled wasn't medicine. It was poison! Enjoy it."
