Mu Qinxue nodded slowly after hearing Tian Lei's story. Her face didn't show much, but her gaze grew sharp, like a drawn sword.
"If you want," she said casually, her tone cool as ever, "I can destroy that sect for you. Think of it as a little gift for becoming my disciple."
Tian Lei immediately shook his head, firm and resolute.
"I'll kill them myself," he replied. "That's my responsibility. I made that promise, and I'll see it through."
Mu Qinxue's lips curled into a faint smirk. "Hmph. So stubborn."
He nodded again and looked at her with quiet determination. "Besides, haven't you already given me enough, Master? This Immortal Cave, the robes, your name protecting me…"
Mu Qinxue blinked once, then scoffed. It was playful, but carried a hint of royal arrogance.
