"Sister?"
To Song Siyi, who was already well aware of the mystique surrounding Saintess Yunxi, the foremost extraordinary woman of the Eastern Desolate, the term came as a shock.
It was Song Siyi's first visit to the Eastern Desolate, and also her first time seeing Saintess Yunxi. As she prepared to step forward with Gai Jianchen and engage Yunxi in conversation, she overheard Yunxi referring to Mu Ling as "sister," sparking surprise she couldn't suppress.
Song Siyi wasn't the only one stunned; Gai Jianchen and the three young men accompanying him were all caught off guard as well.
This woman who followed Mo Wangchen, previously referred to by Song Siyi as a maid, was actually addressed as sister by a woman of Yunxi's caliber?
"Mu Ling..."
Amidst the surprise, Gai Jianchen almost immediately recognized the name, as if it had resurfaced from distant memory.
"You are Mu Ling, the Young Pavilion Master of the Eastern Desolate's Hundred Treasures Pavilion?"
