So that was how it was!!
"Little Friend Qin, your eye is truly sharp. That one is the Ice Phoenix Saintess. They say her beauty could topple kingdoms and cities; she and you are a match made in heaven."
The Lord of Heavenly Mystery Realm had mistaken Qin Jishi for being drawn to the Ice Phoenix Saintess and developing feelings for her.

At those words, everyone's gazes shifted once more.
Qin Jishi: "..."
