"Sister Qingmo has always been cultivating,"
As the words fell, the sun-drenched, elegant pavilion became quiet for a moment.
Xu Yuan was slightly startled but soon felt that his question was somewhat superfluous and laughed softly,
"That's right. With her character, she would only cultivate during such free time."
Xu Xinyao smiled lightly upon hearing this, glanced in the direction of the chamber assigned to Ran Qingmo by the Prime Minister's Mansion, and said with a chuckle,
"Oh right, Sister Qingmo also said she owes you another favor."
Xu Yuan raised an eyebrow; he remembered he still had a favor from the Big Ice Lump unused. Why did he owe another one now:
"Why?"
Xu Xinyao tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said softly,
"Sister Qingmo probably feels that it's a bit much to be using our mansion's Source Crystals for cultivation for so many days."
"...."
A hint of puzzlement flashed across Xu Yuan's eyes, but he quickly smoothed out his brow.
