The more the woman dressed in white heard, the more pronounced the fear on her face became. She was so afraid, that the muscles in her face started twitching.

He Xi nonetheless laughed. "But you don't have to worry, Earth Bound Spirit Poison's solidification is only really effective on an ordinary person's body. For a martial artist, as long they have spiritual power to protect themselves, it isn't so easy for them to become a stone statue. Earth Bound Spirit Poison will only hinder you from moving for a few hours, that's all."

Hearing this, the woman dressed in white immediately released a sigh of relief, yet before the fear in her eyes could vanish, He Xi continued. “You don’t have to worry about Earth Bound Spirit Poison, because what you should be worrying about, is what I’ll be doing to you next.”

With that, she pointed at the Flying Sword lying on the ground. Suddenly, the Flying Sword that had originally belonged to the woman dressed in white leaped into He Xi's hand.

Test slicing the long sword through the air a few times, He Xi then lightly tapped the sword’s edge against the woman’s face.

The woman dressed in white felt the cold metal and sharp edge against her cheek, and instantly turned pale with fright. “What are you doing?”

Is there any woman who doesn’t appreciate her own beauty? No woman wouldn’t feel scared when their face was being threatened.

He Xi coldly said, “Speak, who sent you? If you tell me, I’ll leave your body intact!”

The woman’s eyes flashed with a trace of alarm, and she immediately shouted, “Since I’ll die anyway, why should I tell you anything!”

“Oh, such a courageous spirit,” He Xi withdrew the long sword, clicking her tongue as she said, “However, don’t you know how many kinds of methods there are to kill people? If you’re beheaded; you’re dead, if you’re skinned alive; you’re dead, one long slice across the waist with a sword; you’re also dead…do you really think that dying by these methods is all the same?”

The complexion of the woman dressed in white quickly became deathly pale. He Xi had only described simple methods of execution, but the woman was already so scared that her whole body was trembling. Unable to bear it any longer, she yelled, “Don’t you know who I am? If you kill me, you absolutely won’t be able to escape, I…”

Abruptly halting her words, the woman dressed in white firmly bit her lips, refusing to continue speaking.

A corner of He Xi's mouth curled upwards. “Do you know what my favourite dish is?”

The woman dressed in white didn’t understand why He Xi suddenly changed the topic to food, yet not daring to speak, she could only firmly glare at He Xi.

He Xi continued speaking, “My favourite dish is called squirrel mandarin fish[1]. The so-called squirrel mandarin fish isn’t really made with squirrels, rather, it’s made with fresh fish. First you slice the fish meat into thin pieces without completely cutting them off, then, you take a spoonful of hot oil and pour it on top. Just listen to the squeaky sounds it makes, it resembles the sounds a real squirrel makes. The delicious and fresh taste that dances on the tip of your tongue; it’s a temptation that most top chefs can’t resist.”

The woman dressed in white paled further, while the expression in He Xi's eyes as she looked at her caused the woman’s hair to stand on end.

He Xi's next words frightened the woman so badly that she nearly fainted. “I know, how about I make you into a squirrel human fish? First, I’ll slice the flesh on your body into strips, making sure that the thickness is well-distributed so that they won’t rip off. Then, I’ll place you on a big iron plate to grill you, slowly pouring on the hot oil. Hmm, I’ve never made such a big squirrel human fish before, but I believe that the taste will be particularly delicious.”
