Xia Shiyun paused with the dagger in hand and said with surprise, "You're still here?"
"Of course, I am. I've been sleeping within you all along, never leaving. We are now a shared life force; I can't leave you, and you can't leave me!" the woman's voice was cold as she said.
"Then all these years, you..." Xia Shiyun hesitated.
"I have been in a poor state, so I've been asleep. I can only appear when you're in danger!" the woman's voice was filled with anger, "But I never thought that when I awoke this time, it wasn't because you were in danger, but because you want to commit suicide?"
"I..." Xia Shiyun's hand holding the dagger eventually dropped, and she said with a dim expression, "Senior, I'm sorry, but I really had no other choice!"
"What happened?" the woman asked with concern.
Xia Shiyun recounted the events in their entirety.
"All this for that?" the woman said with disdain, "Such a trivial matter, and you want to commit suicide for it?"
