Wang Yun reflected that he had no friendship whatsoever with Yi Mingjing. To forge such a strained kinship and cry out to her as his little aunt was nothing more than an attempt to secure a favor for himself. He also knew he had overestimated his capacity; clearing Qi Xiu's name was already beyond his ability, yet he simply wanted to do whatever he could for Qi Xiu, who was, after all, the senior martial brother who had raised him at the Peak of Yunxiao.
"If she refuses to help, I can only wait until we leave Wuzhou later, then find an opportunity to ask Eldest Sister for help," Wang Yun thought to himself.
Ying Qiong was desperately eager to know about Qi Xiu and how the Yi Family intended to dispose of him, so he let slip a question out of turn. However, Yi Mingjing merely told him to attend to his proper duties and not to meddle casually in other matters. In that exact instant, Ying Qiong felt that he was, after all, nothing more than a mere disciple of the Yi Family.
