Qi Shiyun hid in the shadows, He Hongye's inner words echoing in her ears, and felt utterly unwell.
The Venerable Mother set me up?
What is this Venerable Mother?
Surely not the legendary Unborn Venerable Mother?
She was only a tiny bit fickle, had gotten involved with just a few too many girls. Surely that did not warrant attracting the attention of a legendary evil god?
At first, Qi Shiyun had thought He Hongye was hiding in the Shen Clan as part of a plot against the clan.
So all along, it was aimed at me?
At that thought, a chill ran down Qi Shiyun's back.
Even so, Qi Shiyun kept the fluctuations of her blood and qi under control, preventing her two former lovers inside the room from noticing her.
Inside, Shen Siyun and He Hongye were chatting.
Although their voices were very low, Qi Shiyun could still hear them.
"Hongye, do you think Qi Shiyun will really come?"
That was Shen Siyun's voice.
Speaking of which, Shen Siyun's name had played a part in why Qi Shiyun had fallen for her back then.
Qi Shiyun had felt that Shen Siyun's name destined her to have a story with her.
The course their relationship subsequently took had proved that point.
Unfortunately, a Shen Family woman was a Shen Family woman, after all. There was nothing wrong with her looks, allure, learning, or knowledge, but her ambitions were too great.
She had actually wanted to use Qi Shiyun to extend her reach into Nine Heavens.
Qi Shiyun had raised her blade and brought it down, nearly chopping off her hand.
From then on, she and Qi Shiyun had become enemies.
Generally speaking, Qi Shiyun was a decent person. Even after a breakup, she would not let things get too ugly
