Yunzhu's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately stood up to apologize.
"Marquis, I was wrong. From now on, I won't entertain such thoughts again, and I will ensure the lady's safe arrival at Youyun Mountain."
Seeing that Zhao Xiyan's expression was still unpleasant, he quickly added another sentence.
"...Years ago, when I passed by Youyun Mountain, I stayed there for some time and made the acquaintance of quite a few extraordinary individuals. Once there, I will ask them to look after the lady. These people are all chivalrous and will certainly not let the lady suffer any grievances..."
"What kind of people can you know? I too have studied at Youyun Mountain," Zhao Xiyan said coldly, cutting off Yunzhu.
Although his expression was still grim, his voice had softened considerably.
Yunzhu relaxed at this point, and his manner of speaking became more at ease.
