The anger filling her heart subsided by seven parts and her otherwise ordinary features now carried a hint of softness.
Seeing her like this, the attendant Ting Yun at her side asked unhappily, "Fellow Daoist Jian, you clearly knew that His Majesty has been searching everywhere for the Source of Profound Ice and the Vermilion Bird Sacred Flame. Why did you not mention that you possess the Vermilion Bird Flame?"
"Impudent. A mere lowly servant dares to offend my honored guest."
Before Jian Li could respond, the Crown Princess suddenly shouted angrily.
With a casual strike of her palm, she killed Ting Yun on the spot.
After withdrawing her hand, she returned to a gentle expression and said, "A'Li, this is my fault for failing to discipline my people, allowing such a creature to act so arrogantly and offend you."
"It is not Your Highness's fault," Jian Li replied expressionlessly with a nod.
He frowned slightly and scanned the surroundings.
