An Obvious Extortion (2)

'You're not scared, but I'm scared!'

Jiang Yu almost explained to Ye Qingtang that he cared about his prestige. However, after seeing how Ye Qingtang wanted to level up in order to bring honor to the family, the words choked in his throat.

To be honest…

It was undeniable that Ye Qingtang saved him. If not, he might still be trapped and waiting for death to come with the rest of the children in that forbidden place.

However, if Ye Qingtang used this incident to gain honor points, he had to personally vouch for her. It was his decision to bring Ye Qingtang into the Elder Cabinet. He needed to be fair when rewarding Ye Qingtang with honor points. He had to tell the rest of the elders to prove that he was not siding with Ye Qingtang.

However…

This meant that Jiang Yu had to tell others that he was trapped in the forbidden place…

He would never tell others about that.
