"So, you're from the Li Family of Lijing? The one near Wangyue Lake?"
Ning Wan's rosy lips parted, and the various individuals seated below immediately showed a range of expressions, whispering amongst themselves:
"How come we've never heard of this Lijing Li Family that warrants the envoy's personal inquiry?"
"Who knows..."
Xiao Chuting also looked down, nodding at Li Tongya and smiling as he watched him.
Li Tongya was initially startled, lifting his head slightly and catching a glimpse of the delicate white skin beneath Ning Wan's veil and her clear, smooth jawline, he answered evenly:
"To answer the envoy, I am Li Tongya of the Li Family; our Lijing Mountain is indeed located by Wangyue Lake."
"What relation is Li Chijin to you?"
Upon hearing this, Li Tongya's eyes brightened, his heart settled, knowing that Li Chijin must have given notice within the sect. He replied with utmost respect:
"He is indeed my younger brother."
