"Yao Xiao Yan, is what Great Elder Yun Leng said true?"
Jia Ma Empire, Misty Cloud Sect plaza.
As Yun Yun's clear, melodious voice rang out, everyone turned their eyes toward her.
As the Jia Ma Empire's first and only female Dou Emperor, Yun Yun was undeniably outstanding not only in strength but also in beauty, with few who could rival her looks. Coupled with her gentle, endearing temperament, she truly drew the eye.
Across from her, Xiao Yan frowned slightly at her question. He did not want to deceive Yun Yun. Though they had both used false names before, everything that had happened during their time together had been real.
"Whew!"
Xiao Yan let out a long sigh, then looked at Yun Yun and asked solemnly, "Sect Master Yun, if I killed Mo Cheng, what would you do?"
Yun Yun froze at those words. Indeed, what could she do?
Draw her sword and kill Xiao Yan? Her heart would probably soften before her blade even reached him.
On the viewing platform, seeing that Yun Yun still had not decided on a punishment, Yun Leng immediately said coldly, "If you truly killed Mo Cheng, the Misty Cloud Sect cannot pretend not to know. Otherwise, where would our dignity lie?"
At this point, Yun Leng sighed. His expression softened slightly as he continued, "Xiao Yan, do you admit that you killed Mo Cheng?"
"So what if I did?"
Xiao Yan replied somewhat impatiently, his gaze fixed entirely on Yun Yun.
He had long since taken in Yun Leng's undisguised malice and murderous intent. All he cared about was what Yun Yun thought.
If Yun Yun wanted to kill him, he would let her stab him once today. If he survived that strike, everything between them would vanish like smoke and clouds.
