"Hey, I also didn't know anything about it," Xuefeng called out and grabbed Lisa's wrist to stop her . He wanted to explain but she didn't seem to care .
Lisa turned her head around and glared at him, ordering sharply, "Let go . I don't want to talk to you . "
"Will you please listen to me?" Xuefeng pleaded without releasing her . He already guessed she placed all the blame on him so he tried to clear his name .
Lisa looked at him conflicted and replied, "No . We were meant to enter the Heaven Realm together, as sisters, yet she was determined to leave now because she wanted to improve herself for you . She thought she can do it all by herself and impress you when you two meet again . How foolish is that?"
"Then why are you blaming me? Do you think I wanted her to leave?" Xuefeng questioned, pulling her closer and locked her second hand . "When I came back in the evening, I saw her in the process of ascending, already in the God Stage . Guess what I did?"
"What?" Lisa got her attention grabbed . "If she already advanced, it was already too late . "
She stopped struggling so Xuefeng let go of her and described what happened, "I tried to stop her and learn why she was leaving without telling me anything . I even accidentally entered into the passage with her where I almost died from the Heavenly Chains . Don't blame me for her decision . I tried to help her . "
Lisa's eyes widened as she suddenly turned even angrier at him .
"You did what?!" Lisa cried out and pulled him into her mansion, slamming him against the doors . "Dummy! What were you thinking?! What if something happened to you?! You could die there!"
"Ah, I was already scolded by everyone, please don't be another one . I heard enough," Xuefeng sighed, not in a mood to listen to another lecture .

His response made her even more annoyed but there was nothing she could do . Who she was to him to receive the right to scold him . Lisa only glared at him and finally stomped with her foot, walking away upset .
"Hey—" Xuefeng tried to stop her again but before he said anything, Lisa threw a ring at him which he caught on instinct .
"There is a letter inside addressed to you . If you want to learn why she did it, you should read it," Lisa commented as she halted in front of her workshop . "I don't blame you for her decision . I blame you for not stopping her before it was too late . Don't worry, I blame myself too . I was the one who gave her the pill . Now there is nothing we can do to save her unless we follow after her . "
Thud .
Lisa closed the doors behind her as she entered the workshop, leaving Xuefeng alone in the corridor . He could only sigh to himself and look inside the ring . He took out a white paper from it and saw neat writing on one page .
With his strengthened sense of smell, he immediately smelled Jiao's perfumes on it which confirmed it was her writing .
'Hi, Xuefeng…
If you are reading this, I am probably gone by that time . Long story short, I left for Heaven Realm . I know you probably can't believe it but I had to do it .
Please, don't blame yourself . It's all my fault and my decision in the first place . I was never someone who deserved even one sun ray yet I wanted the whole sun .

Because of this, I decided to leave . I don't really know what I'm hoping for but I want to change . I want to become someone worthy of your trust, friendship, and love…'
At that moment, Xuefeng paused, touching the paper . He noticed the paper was puckered at a few spots . He quickly realized what those spots meant .
Tears .
Jiao was crying as she wrote this letter . Xuefeng quickly checked the second part of the letter .
'I'm really sorry…
I'm sorry I'm leaving without saying goodbye . . .
I'm sorry I failed to earn your trust…
I'm sorry I didn't live up to your expectations…
When I didn't deserve to see you at my best, I don't deserve to see you at my lowest too…
I'm really sorry… I can't…

I really can't gather the courage to meet you…
I was never good for you but that will change . I will work hard to prove myself . Prove I can stay by your side and be with you .
Please forgive me for leaving . Just this last time . Forgive me .
I will come back stronger than ever . Don't forget me .
Look, I'm shameless again… Anyway, thank you for your kindness . Despite my ugly character, you didn't push me away as everyone suggested . Thank you . '
Ah . . .
Xuefeng couldn't help but sigh when he reached this part . He still believed Jiao was one big dummy but it was too late to lament about it . His opinion didn't change after he read the letter . He hoped she will succeed and actually improve .
Bam!
Just as he wanted to continue to read the last part of the letter, he heard a small explosion from the inside of Lisa's workshop . He immediately entered inside and got hit by an intense pill aroma . It was strong and earthy but at the same time refreshing .
"What?" Lisa asked from her crouched position as she was reaching out towards her cauldron . It was obvious she was creating some strong pills but that assured him . At least she returned to her job instead of worrying about her sister .
"Nothing, you can continue," Xuefeng responded and returned to the letter .
'Even if I am the last person would like to give favors to, I hope you can accept one of my selfish wishes .
Can you take care of my sister, Lisa? I know that she loves me dearly even though she doesn't show it on the outside but this is why I'm worried about her . She is even more stubborn than me so I am afraid she will follow me to the Heaven Realm . I hope you can stop her . '
Xuefeng side glanced at Lisa but he didn't notice any strange behavior . She was packing pills she just made into a small vial so he looked back at the letter .
'If you read this letter, you should be read her . If you notice any red pills with a strong, earthy smell around her, please stop her . It's an Ascension Pill . One needs to keep it under their tongue for better effects so even if she takes one, you can still stop her before she reaches breakthrough .
I'm sorry and thank you!'
Xuefeng didn't believe that Lisa would actually do it but the aroma he felt from before made him worried . He looked back at Lisa and suddenly paled .
She had a red colored pill in her hand which she put into her mouth right in front of him . It was the very same pill with a strong and earthy smell she just made .
He immediately rushed to Lisa as he cried out, "Lisa! Stop it!"
She looked at him with a questioning gaze when he grabbed her shoulder and ordered her .
"Quickly, spit it out!"
