Oh?!
Other than Zhang Chulan, who knew the truth, everyone else raised their brows.
Yan Chixia looked at Han Li with a half-smile. "Brother Li, you weren't being honest!"
Han Li sighed and explained with some difficulty, "Brother Yan, you don't know the full story."
"When Han was younger and more hot-blooded, I offended many enemies near my hometown. To avoid bringing disaster upon my family, I had no choice but to hide my identity while living elsewhere and change my name..."
Yan Chixia neither confirmed nor denied it. "Is that so?"
"What do you mean, 'is that so'?!"
The white-clothed fairy maiden snorted. "He's lying!"
Han Li's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly said, "Every word Han spoke was true!"
The white-clothed fairy maiden said decisively, "Impossible. The Heaven and Earth Mirror can perceive and discern the truth."
"If it says you're lying, then you must have lied!"
At those words, Yan Chixia's expression turned somewhat unfriendly.
Han Li, however, seemed to realize something. He calmed down from his panic and cupped his hands.
"May I ask, Fairy Maiden, did the Heaven and Earth Mirror indicate exactly which sentence Han lied about?"
The white-clothed fairy maiden carefully examined the blue screen before her, then said with complete confidence.
"Hot-blooded!"
Everyone: "..."
Yan Chixia's expression became strange as well. He could not help asking, "And aside from that?"
The white-clothed fairy maiden checked again and nodded. "There doesn't seem to be any other problem."
Han Li breathed a sigh of relief. Just as I thought.
Yan Chixia's expression eased somewhat, and the way he looked at Han Li became much friendlier.
Since he had done it for his family's sake and out of necessity, Yan Chixia had nothing more to say.
After all, he was no better in this regard.
