"Li Yao, by order of the patriarch, you must return to the main branch within one week," Li Mei spoke with forced authority, though her voice trembled slightly.
Li Yao stared at her for a long moment, her expression completely blank and unreadable. Then, without acknowledging her words at all, she simply sidestepped around Li Mei and continued walking toward her office as if nothing had happened.
"Who's that weirdo? So, anyway, as I was saying..."
Li Mei turned around quickly in frustration. She then raised her voice significantly, "Li Yao, don't be so arrogant! Even if you can beat Soul Formation experts, do you know how many Soul Formation and Void experts are in the Li family?"
She thought to herself that she didn't have time for this. She needed to get back and check on grandpa, she had been having a terrible feeling in her gut ever since leaving.
