Chapter 198 - 195 Long Zhiyang
"This must be Junior Brother Ye, as an elder brother, I must thank you for taking care of Little Yan at Wanxiang Mountain, allowing her to return safely. Otherwise, if anything had happened to her, I truly wouldn’t be able to forgive myself."
The young man in white looked at Ye Xuan with a warm smile, and then his gaze lingered fondly on Ling Qianxue beside him. To Ye Xuan, however, that look inevitably caused him to frown.
Little Yan? Such intimacy in address, has Long Zhiyang’s relationship with Ling Qianxue already progressed to such an extent?
However, Ye Xuan wasn’t the type to be petty and let such things upset him; what mattered was the tone of the other person. Logically, the one who had returned from the brink should have been him. As the foremost among the Four True Disciples in Heavenly Martial Hall, Long Zhiyang at least ought to have greeted him first.
Moreover, Long Zhiyang’s words of thanks made it seem as though he was the one who rescued Ling Qianxue, which significantly diminished his own merits.
"There’s no need; we are all from the same sect, supporting each other is only right." Ye Xuan replied indifferently, his impression of this senior brother from Qian Hall was already not very favorable.
Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, a shadow of displeasure briefly flashed through Ling Qianxue’s beautiful eyes, but she concealed it well, and to outsiders, she still appeared unaffected and serene.
"Hehe, Junior Brother Ye is certainly not wrong."
Long Zhiyang’s face showed a smile as warm as a spring breeze, which quickly faded, "However, as an elder brother, I hope Junior Brother Ye can be more committed. Don’t be fickle or carelessly flirtatious, as it might bring you unnecessary troubles."
At these words, Ye Xuan’s pupils contracted slightly, and a cold smile crossed his mind, "There’s no need for Brother Long to worry about that. But, I am indeed a person of divided attentions, always looking at what’s in the pot while eating from the bowl."
