"Why do you wish to walk the path of immortality?" he asked.
Chen Xiyu answered honestly, "To become stronger, decide my own fate, and find the culprit behind the skin-flaying incident!"
Qi Yuan glanced toward the direction of Wind Thunder Valley. "The culprit, huh? You could cultivate for a lifetime and still not defeat them."

His words made her recall a line from ancient strange tales.
She answered solemnly, "Death is the end of all things. If I fear death and avert my eyes from the truth, then what road to immortality is left for me?"
With a smile, Qi Yuan took a short sword from the wooden chest, tossing it into her hands. "The true culprit behind the skin-flaying lies within this chessboard. Strike it once and I will grant you immortal fate.”
Perhaps because she lacked strength, her hand trembled as she gripped the sword. Still, Chen Xiyu gazed at the chessboard with determination.
