When the rumors reached the Inner Sect, Jiang Nanzhen was furious upon hearing them. She originally intended to go find Yun Li to discuss how to handle the matter, but considering how much was happening on Ling Peak lately and how much trouble Yun Li was already dealing with, Jiang Nanzhen forcefully swallowed her anger and dropped her head onto the courtyard table with a pout.
Yanze was naturally aware of the matter. Watching Jiang Nanzhen sulk in the courtyard from his room, a flash of confusion and curiosity crossed his eyes. This was unlike her usual personality. Ordinarily, given Jiang Nanzhen's temperament, she would never have endured such a grievance; she would have already gone out to settle accounts with those spreading idle talk. To think she was actually sitting there brooding by herself—how strange.
Yanze took out his Communication Jade and told Beigong Ying about what had happened. Receiving the news, Beigong Ying frowned. All of them knew Yun Li was a woman, but others did not. For this matter to develop so rapidly from yesterday until now, someone must have been pulling strings behind the scenes.
