Ximen Qingxue noticed the surprised expressions of Li Chen and Lian Hongshang, then smiled softly and explained, "The Azure Dragon Tribe's totem has some connections with our Dragon Ascending Valley's Ice Dragon."
"But, I don't know the specifics. It's all something my father told me!"
At the mention of "father," the scene of her father slapping her on the ice field and saying he would sever ties with her as his daughter immediately surfaced in Ximen Qingxue's mind.
This made her eyes involuntarily start to turn red.
"Hey, Qingxue, why are you crying?"
Lian Hongshang, unaware of the situation, saw Ximen Qingxue's eyes turning red and stepped forward to ask with concern.
Ximen Qingxue quickly rubbed her eyes, blushing, and said, "No, no, nothing, it was just the wind blowing into my eyes!"
After speaking, she looked at Li Chen with a gaze full of resentment, pouting, looking aggrieved to the point of tears.
