Ye Qichi grew more and more agitated as she spoke.
It was as if her emotions, suppressed to their limit, had finally found release.
She said, "However, Xiao Jinxing told me that the position of Princess can only belong to Bai Mowan."
Xiao Jinxing's Adam's apple bobbed.
Back when he had spoken of this matter.
The casualness in Ye Qichi's attitude made him believe that she actually accepted it.
Even though he knew she was hurt deep down, her feelings for him meant she wouldn't hate him.
It was only now that Ye Qichi had truly spoken out.
He realized just how deep her resentment was.
A mix of indescribable emotions surged in his heart.
Xiao Jinxing remained silent all the same.
Hearing Ye Qichi's words, the leader of the Ten Extremes Sect laughed out loud, "A man like that, indeed, is not worth entrusting your life to."
"Yes," Ye Qichi nodded.
"Come here," the sect leader said, "as long as you obey, you will continue to enjoy endless glory and wealth."
"Alright."
