“Qian Xue!”
Qin Chen's gaze narrowed, no wonder Mu Rong Bing Yun said she arrived in the Heavenly Realm before them.
“At that time, when I saw You Qian Xue and Ji Ru Yue, I was very shocked. Their cultivation wasn’t high in this Guang Han Mansion, making survival difficult. Moreover, their temperament was too outstanding. When I encountered them, they were facing life and death issues. In the end, I stepped in to save them.”
“You saved Qian Xue and Ru Yue?”
Qin Chen looked at Mu Rong Bing Yun suspiciously.
“Don’t look at me with that kind of gaze. I did save them. I know both You Qian Xue and Ji Ru Yue. Back when we were in Piao Miao Palace, You Qian Xue was also the saintess of my Piao Miao Palace, and we had some connections. As for Ji Ru Yue, her Ji family comes from the Law Enforcement Palace, and naturally, there are countless ties with my Piao Miao Palace.”
“However, even if I didn’t step in, they wouldn’t have encountered any trouble. After I saved You Qian Xue and Ji Ru Yue, I brought them back to Guang Han Mansion, but was spotted by the Palace Master. The Palace Master was immediately shocked and said that there was a terrible power sealed within Ji Ru Yue, a descendant of a prominent family in the Heavenly Realm.”
“Later, the Palace Master activated the seal within Ji Ru Yue's body, and sure enough, not long after, a powerful figure from the Heavenly Realm came to take Ji Ru Yue away.”
“Ru Yue was taken away?”
Qin Chen's gaze tightened. Ru Yue was a bloodline descendant of a prominent family in the Heavenly Realm, and Qin Chen already knew that Ji family’s ancestor actually came from the Heavenly Realm, and it was highly likely to be a Saint Master.
However, when Ji family's ancestor passed on powers to Ru Yue, it was warned that their family had great enemies in the Heavenly Realm and to never expose their origins easily. But according to Mu Rong Bing Yun’s account, something seemed off. If Ji family had great enemies in the Heavenly Realm, how could the Guang Han Palace Master see through the other party’s background and still easily release the power within Ru Yue?
Could it be that after the Ji family's ancestor fled into the Tian Wu Continent over countless years, the Ji family in the Heavenly Realm had already blocked the enemies and achieved victory?
“Then Ji Ru Yue was taken away, while You Qian Xue was favored by the Palace Master and accepted as a closed-door disciple. Moreover, You Qian Xue has immense potential and received an incredible inheritance from the Palace Master. She is currently in seclusion, and everyone in Guang Han Palace says that once You Qian Xue exits her seclusion, she will become the senior sister of Guang Han Palace, taking over Wei Si Qing’s position.”
Mu Rong Bing Yun said coldly, “Alright, that’s all I wanted to say.”
“Is that so?”
Qin Chen gripped Mu Rong Bing Yun’s slender neck, and a blood mark immediately appeared on that jade-like neck.
“Qin Chen, what are you doing?”
Mu Rong Bing Yun exclaimed angrily.
“Do you think I would believe your words?”
Qin Chen said coldly, “What you said seems plausible, but there are two flaws. First, Ru Yue wouldn’t willingly be taken away. Even if she were taken, she would ask the other party to find me. Second, if Qian Xue truly became the closed-door disciple of Guang Han Palace with such a high status, why hasn’t she come to find me?”
This wasn’t Qin Chen’s narcissism; just as he would go to great lengths to find Qian Xue, she would certainly seek him if she had the opportunity.
Mu Rong Bing Yun was taken aback, looking meaningfully at Qin Chen: “You really trust each other like Qian Xue and Ru Yue said. I really don’t understand why you, such a rough man, would be liked by Qian Xue and Ru Yue. You are right; Ji Ru Yue was not taken away willingly but was forcibly taken by someone. They seemed to say that Ji Ru Yue possessed a lost constitution of their Ji family and must be taken back for cultivation.”
