Yan Ling's gaze touched upon the Imperial Grandson but swiftly retracted, never lingering for too long.
His position did not qualify him to be here; it was only because Zhu Jian'an valued him that he had been brought along, breaking protocol. He needed to be constantly vigilant and could not afford to cause unnecessary trouble for the Chief Arrestor because of his own actions.
Since ancient times, King Yan was easy to deal with, but the little ghosts were troublesome.
Even if the Imperial Grandson himself did not care, if those with ulterior motives caught sight of this, it could turn into an annoying headache. Now, as a person of the officialdom, he could no longer wander the Jianghu wielding his sword like he did in his youth, nor could he draw his sword naturally when faced with injustice.
Yan Ling's eyes dropped.
Although it was a mere fleeting glance, with the Ocular Power of a Seventh Rank Martial Artist, he had seen the Imperial Grandson's features clearly.
