Capítulo 193: "Yunning looks like she wants to stab me in the back."

The four exchanged glances, excitement dancing in their eyes. Jolie glanced at Yunning with glee in her eyes. She had been quite vocal that they weren't going to find anything but a few minutes later they had found a secret passage so yes, Jolie was going to gloat to her heart's content.

Yunning saw that gloating look on Jolie's face and her resentment grew. She couldn't comprehend why no one else saw Eling for what he truly was.

Without hesitation, Qie Xieling stepped into the secret passage, leaving the King's Chamber behind. The air grew cooler, carrying a faint scent of dampness as he descended the narrow stone staircase. Jolie wasn't comfortable with him being in front so she tapped him on the shoulder and whispered, "Don't you want me in front just in case there are traps ahead." Qie Xieling was more worried about the danger behind him than the unforeseen danger in front.
