Chatting with the Saintess

Hong Meilin's countenance twisted into a disapproving frown at the sound of Ye Chen's shout, which rang out with unbecoming familiarity.

 

Her voice took on a chilly edge as she addressed him, "I would appreciate it if you refrained from addressing me by my given name, Daoist Ye."

 

Ignoring her request, Ye Chen continued with the same level of familiarity, "I cannot express how grateful I am that you are saving me, Sister Meilin."

 

Hong Meilin sighed heavily, "I was only passing through when I sensed a disturbance in the nearby vicinity. I decided to intervene, as I owed you a favor as you saved my life in the Celestial Sage's Temple. However, after this deed is done, we shall no longer owe each other anything."

 

Despite Hong Meilin's cool demeanor, Ye Chen's expression remained elated. "As you wish," he replied with a nod.

 

Wang Jian's attention was focused on the faction's flag that Hong Meilin carried.
