Gong Qi looked eagerly at her mother, seeming rather guileless.
Warmth flickered in Gong Shaojun's eyes. "If you go, it may not do you any good. At most, your Second Sister will owe you a debt of gratitude in the future."
"What if I don't go?" Gong Qi immediately pressed.
Gong Shaojun lowered her eyes slightly, her manner calm and composed. "If you don't go, you will become entangled in your Second Sister's Karma, and more trouble may arise later."
Fine, it was that unreasonable Karma again.
Gong Qi asked in confusion, "Mother, what exactly is the relationship between my Second Sister and me?"
It was one thing for their fate lines to be entwined, but if she did not go save her Second Sister, Karma would bind her... This was practically moral kidnapping.
But Gong Shaojun offered no further explanation.
"Once you go to the Cold Water Domain, you will naturally understand."
Gong Qi quietly sighed to herself. "Then, Mother, who will escort me to the Cold Water Domain?"
Gong Shaojun handed her a sheet of paper with several names written on it.
Qingyun, Qing Shang, Qing Jue and his sister, Yuan Xi.
Other than Rong Zhan, they were practically the same people who had accompanied her to the Cold-Eyed Six-Winged Silver Wolf clan.
Gong Qi hesitated for a while before saying, "Mother, I want to bring one more person. Is that all right?"
Gong Shaojun's deep eyes fell upon Gong Qi, as though she had long seen through everything.
"Go on. Who do you wish to bring?"
"Third Sister."
Gong Qi no longer hesitated and answered directly.
Gong Shaojun seemed to give a soft laugh, but it was so fleeting that Gong Qi did not notice it at all.
"Your Third Sister came looking for you?"
Gong Qi
