"Xinxin..." Qi Jingyunās face was extremely grim; he never thought this woman would be so formidable, completely unveiling his thoughts.
"Prince." Yang Ruxinās lips curled into a cold smile, "Please call me Madam Gu."
Qi Jingyun frowned.
"You might even think Iām being ungrateful now and want to teach me a lesson... but I must remind you, Prince, youād better not act rashly, or, who ends up dead isnāt certain." As Yang Ruxin spoke, she raised her left hand, gold was hissing, staring at him, "And donāt think about threatening me with my family, because as long as Iām unwilling, no one can threaten me. If you donāt believe it, feel free to try..."
Qi Jingyun just stared at Yang Ruxin like that, the air around them seemed to have frozen.
After a long time, Qi Jingyun finally sighed and his expression softened: "The more you are like this, the more I am unwilling to let go."
Yang Ruxin couldnāt help but roll her eyes: "The unattainable is always the good one."
Qi Jingyun looked at Yang Ruxin and nodded: "Maybe thatās true."
"Now, what I want to say is, the reason Iām saying so much is to clarify my position." Yang Ruxin waved her hand, "I am unwilling to become your enemy; we can have a very good cooperative relationship. But if you insist on doing things that make me resentful, then I think cooperation will be impossible. I, as a person, dislike pretentious ambiguity, and dislike being threatened. I like straightforwardness and clearness, and enjoy mutual transparency..."
Qi Jingyunās mouth twitched: "You are the first to talk to me like this..."
"Sis is just that special." Yang Ruxin continued drinking tea.
"Arenāt you afraid Iāll kill you?"
"Iāve said, even though your martial skills are superior to mine, that doesnāt mean you can kill me." Yang Ruxin glanced sideways at Qi Jingyun, "You have to believe this..."
"You..."
Yang Ruxin had already set down her teacup and stood up: "Iāve said all that needs saying; as for what to do, thatās your business... but, I know the Prince is a smart man. Whatās beneficial to you, should be clearer to you than anyone..." Saying this, she suddenly leaned in closer to Qi Jingyun, "If we arenāt enemies, I might even provide you with some information on the Flame Sect. Believe Prince has received news that they have a Herbalist Troops; quite terrifying..."
"You... can handle them?" Qi Jingyun abruptly stood up as he heard this.
"I have two mentors, one is Dao Xuzi and the other is Tang Wanqian..." Yang Ruxin smiled, "Regardless of the grievances between you and the Crown Prince, for a nation, the primary goal is an external alliance, and then handling domestic affairs, right? Just like... the Crown Princeās northern expedition, the Prince didnāt interfere, so when the Prince heads south, naturally we also hope for your triumphant return..."
The shock in Qi Jingyunās eyes could not be concealed; he knew Dao Xuzi, and he naturally knew Tang Wanqian too. These two are legendary figures in the martial world. If this woman truly is their disciple, then...
But at this moment, Yang Ruxin had already reached the door: "Prince, ponder well about what to do, crucially how to treat me. Once youāve considered it, notify me, then Iāll have the mind to draw plans and come up with ideas..." She raised her hand and waved, "See you." Then directly opened the door and walked out.
