"Meng Qi." Yun Qingyan put her down, "Let's go back."

"But Xiao Qi..."

"Xiao Qi will be fine." Yun Qingyan's tone was flat, and he began walking towards the direction of the manor.

"But..." Meng Qi frowned. She never doubted what Yun Qingyan said. Never in the past, and never will in the future.

Stood in place, Meng Qi stared at Yun Qingyan's gradually drifting figure. Clad in a white robe, the man looked both lonely and majestic under the starlight.

"What?" Yun Qingyan paused his steps. He turned sideways and faced Meng Qi, "You don't believe me?"

Meng Qi quickly shook her head. The worry on her face was still there, but her gaze towards Yun Qingyan was as clear and clean as ever, without a shred of doubt.

"Then come with me." Yun Qingyan repeated.

Meng Qi still didn't move. She kept looking towards Yun Qingyan, staring straight into the latter's eyes. Her lips quivered and pursed, as if wanting to say something but were too afraid to. Meanwhile, her heart was pounding hard. A terrifying guess was hitting Meng Qi's mind. She desperately tried hard to suppress it, but the guess was taking root and sprouted tall with each second's passing.

"So, Sovereign Qingyan..." Meng Qi stammered.

"Hmm?" Yun Qingyan raised his eyebrows as he lightly turned his body. His deep eyes met the blue-robed girl's gaze.

Meng Qi stared at him in a daze. The guess that was completely preoccupying her mind made her heart pound even faster, as if it was about to jump out of her chest. "W-well..." Meng Qi tried her best to speak coherently, "Xiao Qi, he... he is also a member of your celestial demon White Tiger Clan."

"Oh." Yun Qingyan nodded expressionlessly.

"Although he looks still a cub, but he... he looks just like you!" Meng Qi said again.

"I know." Yun Qingyan remained expressionless as he nodded again.

"Sovereign Qingyan..." Meng Qi took a deep breath. She looked at Yun Qingyan's perfect facial features. The starlight gave him a layer of ethereal color, but also made him look even more handsome under the night curtain.

Meng Qi suddenly asked, "Are you Xiao Qi?"

As soon as the words left her mouth, Meng Qi's cheeks became hot, and before Yun Qingyan could answer, her face had turned completely red. She did entertain such thoughts just a while back, but the Yun Qingyan she knew was too strong, and she couldn't connect the sickly Xiao Qi with a powerful man who could kill a nirvana fiery eagle in just one hit. After all, Meng Qi had personally examined Xiao Qi's injuries and knew how severe his condition was. So Meng Qi had never thought in this direction before, and when she finally had this guess, she was quick to deny it for being ridiculous.

When Yun Qingyan agreed to help her find the little white tiger, she was even more sure that he could not possibly be Xiao Qi.

But now......

He said to return, and that Xiao Qi is fine. Sovereign Qingyan was not such a ruthless person who ignored the life and death of others. He never was!

The idea that Meng Qi had overthrown suddenly appeared again with a vengeance, rooting even deeper than before. Meng Qi's cheeks flamed red hot, as if ready to emit smoke. Still, she raised her head slightly and stared with great intent at Yun Qingyan.

Under the starlight, the white-robed man's eyes shone even brighter in comparison.

"Do you wish that I am?" After a moment of silence, Yun Qingyan asked calmly.
