Mei Ying handed the letter back to Bing Xuan, coldly instructing, “This matter has nothing to do with Yan Yu Lou. Everyone doesn’t need to do anything. Xuan, quickly send the letter to the master of Xi Lin Fortress. He will know how to handle it. Everyone else just needs to observe.”
“This subordinate will go right away!” Bing Xuan tucked the letter into her sleeve and turned to leave.
“Where is Butterfly?” Mei Ying’s gaze swept across everyone, finally stopping on Bing Xi’s face. Among those in Yan Yu Lou, these two had the closest relationship.
Bing Xi gave a cold laugh, directly meeting his gaze, her tone unfriendly: “You should ask yourself that, aren’t you the one who said the rules of the tower are that assassins cannot develop feelings? So, Butterfly has left Yan Yu Lou!”
Mei Ying was slightly angry, “Why didn’t I know about such a big matter?”
Bing Xi glared at him, “Now your heart only has that woman. You left Wu Yan Valley without a word for her. How could I tell you? And even if you knew, would you keep her?”
“All these years we’ve watched her grow stronger bit by bit for you, transforming from the gentle Xia family young lady to the now-famous first scout of Yan Yu Lou, ‘Jade Butterfly Immortal’. All of this was for you. From the moment you saved her, she was destined to be hurt for you!”
“But what’s the result? Only to hear you say: The rules of Yan Yu Lou – once an assassin develops feelings, they must leave the organization! It was you who forced her to leave. The Xia family had turned to ashes the moment you saved her. She’s just a girl, with no one to rely on, and now I don’t even know where she is…”
Seeing Mei Ying’s face growing darker, Qian Yu couldn’t help but interrupt, “Enough, Xi. Feelings cannot be forced. Don’t blame the young master anymore. He didn’t want this. How about this – anyway, the tower hasn’t been busy recently. I’ll accompany you to find Butterfly, okay?”
Bing Xi pursed her lips and stopped speaking, but her eyes still showed much disapproval of Mei Ying.
