"Mm~"

Inside the Sword Venerable Hall, Yueling stretched as she walked out.

She looked like she had just finished a game and was getting ready to go out for a stroll.

But the moment she reached the doorway, the scene before her left her frozen.

"Senior Sister Ji... refused. She didn't agree," Xu Xing
