This explains why the old man supported Murong Xiong.
This is a case of sacrificing a pawn to save the king!
This is to protect the entire Murong family!
"Miss, is what he said true?" Yu Qiushui asked, her beautiful eyes trembling.
She sensed something was off when she saw Lin Yu, but didn't think much of it. Little did she know that while she was away, Murong and Shu had gotten into such a mess and had been led astray!
"I...I didn't!"
Murong Heshu pursed her lips, unwilling to admit it.
"I was only pretending to submit to him. I had no intention of siding with him, much less betraying the ancient martial arts!" Murong Heshu loudly defended himself.

"Heh!" Yu Qiushui scoffed, her face full of cold laughter. "I'm sorry, I'm not a member of the Murong family, nor have I ever been a servant of the Murong family! I treat Heshu as my own daughter, and if anyone tries to harm my daughter, I will die with them, even if my heart is breaking!"
