205 Derangement

Ma Xiaoru wasn't aware that her troubled thoughts had already been slowly nibbling away her sea of consciousness. The state of derangement started quietly from inside the cultivator and gradually manifested itself through changes in physical appearance. The whole process would take days on end, so when the cultivator noticed the apparent changes, it would already be too late.

After considering the situation, Samantha decided to clear the air with Ma Xiaoru. She felt that without Ma Xiaoru's consent, she would never feel the same while being with Wang Tong.

Even without talking to Ma Xiaoru, intuition had told Samantha that her best friend had already learned about the secret affair. The lack of communication was a telltale sign. She knew that she had been Ma Xiaoru's only support system, but then Ma Xiaoru should not even seek help from her since she was the main instigator of her distress. A sense of guilt rose inside of Samantha as she approached her room.

"Xiaoru...Xiaoru!"
