The boy's eyes were as bright as stars, filled with genuine concern, and his sincere tone was moving.
When Ying Zheng met the pair of phoenix eyes that were exactly the same as his own, his heart suddenly softened.
For some reason, even though he knew that the boy's origins were unknown, he inexplicably trusted him.
But before he could answer, the indifferent young man leaning against the door with a sword in his arms asked first.
"How strong are you?"

Gai Nie was still very wary of this strange young man.

"Your swordsmanship is quite good. Let's compete again next time."
