Wanxuan's gaze fell on Qi Chang'an. "Alliance Leader Qi, tell me, you acted rashly without understanding the truth, and my junior sister was injured as a result. Shouldn't you apologize for that?"
“Young Master Wanxuan…” Out of consideration for their friendship, Xiao Baishu couldn’t help but remind him, “Alliance Leader Qi is a fair and rigorous person. He would never take action because of a misunderstanding.”
In other words, Qi Chang'an would not harm people casually. Since Qi Chang'an became the leader of the martial arts alliance, there have been fewer wrongful cases in the martial arts world, and the number of various murderers who have been captured and brought to justice has gradually increased.
Unfortunately, the imperial court and the martial arts world have always kept to themselves and avoided each other, otherwise people in the martial arts world would have described Qi Chang'an as an upright official.
“Master Xiao.” Qi Chang’an glanced at Xiao Baishu, then his gaze fell on Feng Guang. He said, “Whether it’s a misunderstanding or not, Miss Xia has the final say on this matter. Why don’t we hear what she has to say?”
After a brief moment of triumph, she quickly resumed her defiant tone, saying, "The matter is simple. I wanted to kill a bee, but somehow she suddenly appeared in front of me. I was pointing my sword at her when this Alliance Leader Qi attacked me without saying a word or giving any warning. Not only did he knock my sword away, but he also injured me. Senior Brother, you know that apart from accidentally falling down while playing as a child, I rarely get hurt."
“What Feng Guang said… is indeed the truth.” Wan Xuan smiled and echoed. What he said was true. Feng Guang was pampered and protected growing up in the Hidden Army Mansion. Not to mention getting injured, even when she was first asked to practice martial arts, she didn’t ask to stop herself. Her parents and her senior brothers couldn’t bear to see her standing under the sun for even a little while longer.
There's an old saying that a doting mother spoils her son, and there's some truth to that. Besides, living a glamorous life in the Tibetan military headquarters, she's more than just a "doting mother."
Feng Guang then said, "But Alliance Leader Qi not only hurt me, but also blamed me for not learning from my parents."
Faced with the back-and-forth between Fengguang and Wanxuan, Qi Chang'an simply smiled and said, "Everyone has their own way of living. I have no say in what kind of life Miss Xia wants."
"It's good that you know you have no say in this." Feng Guang crossed her arms and muttered irritably, "If you want to play the hero and show off, this young lady isn't going to waste your time..."
Hua Yan was even more embarrassed. She deeply felt that it was not a good thing to write the female lead as too quirky and clever. Not wanting to make things difficult for Qi Chang'an, she stepped forward and said, "Cousin... Alliance Leader Qi did not mean to target you. He only acted in a moment of panic. Please do not blame Alliance Leader Qi for this."
"When did I ever say I would blame him?" Feng Guang said sarcastically. "He is the leader of the martial arts alliance, and a righteous one at that. He hurt people, but it was all to save them. If I were to blame him, wouldn't I be a petty person who doesn't know what's good for him?"
Although her martial arts skills are inferior to Qi Chang'an's, her ability to speak with hidden meaning is second to none. Don't be fooled by her seemingly magnanimous words; she is actually quite sarcastic.
Qi Chang'an smiled instead of getting angry. He said gently, "As expected of the eldest daughter of the Hidden Military Bureau, her status is more noble than many people, and her ability to get angry is many times stronger than many people."
His tone was calm and relaxed, as if he were just casually uttering a sigh. This time, even the usually perceptive Feng Guang couldn't grasp the underlying meaning in his words.
