It turns out Master Mie Jue had not fallen asleep and was fully aware of everything that had happened, seeing it all clearly.
She had already sensed Jingxu Shangren's ulterior motives, so from start to finish, even though she closed her eyes, she remained alert to prevent an ambush.
If it weren't for Li Fei's intervention, she would have strongly counterattacked Jingxu Shangren's sneak attack.
Nonetheless, she was sincerely grateful for Li Fei's act of justice.
Li Fei politely responded, "It was just a small matter, no need to mention it."
Only then did Jingyi and the others realize that Jingxu Shangren had attempted a nighttime ambush on their master, but was timely thwarted by Li Fei.
Unconsciously, Jingyi's previous prejudice and dislike for Li Fei dissipated, and she developed a slight affection for him.
Despite the fact that sometimes his words could be infuriating, he was kind-hearted and full of justice, a man who could be trusted.
