Commandery Princess Chu Yun did not expect her father to ask such a tricky question, but she answered honestly.
"Father, after I escaped the pursuit of those assassins, I encountered a mysterious man in a black robe who attacked me and knocked me unconscious."
"When I woke up, I found myself lying by a small river... It was an independent swordsman who saved me from that man in the black robe."
"That swordsman didn't leave a name, saying he was just an unknown individual who happened to help when he saw injustice."
"After bidding farewell to that swordsman, I heard the news that you were sending troops to the Seven Martial Sect, so I hurried over to stop you."
At this point, she said anxiously, "This is all a misunderstanding! Qin Zi is not a bad person; he is my benefactor!!"
Instantly, the scene fell silent again.
The previously aggressive Yang Tu could no longer maintain his strong demeanor, akin to an eggplant hit by frost... wilting.
