The Demonic Qi swirling around him suddenly expanded, exploding like boiling ink. It formed a barrier as black as night, forcibly blocking Chu Jing's fierce attack.
As the Demonic Qi roiled, he stretched his lips into a twisted grin. "You said you didn't care, didn't you? Ha! Your mouth can lie, but your body is brutally honest."
His voice, laced with mockery and glee, echoed through the woods.
"Just as I thought. You, Lady Beast Tamer, are the softest one of all. If you had truly been able to harden your heart, you wouldn't have hesitated back then, and you wouldn't have ended up in such a pathetic state."
He stared fixedly at Chu Jing, his eyes filled with a complex mix of emotions: resentment, indignation, and a barely perceptible trace of sorrow.
"But I was the one you met first! Why? Why couldn't you even give me one kind look? Why wouldn't you even spare me a single glance?"
His furious roar tore through the silence, echoing throughout the dense forest.
