Qiu Yu could see the worry in Mu Lingxi's heart. "Lingxi," he quickly said. "Don't worry. I swear that as long as you free, I definitely won't take revenge on Zhang Ruochen. You should know that, for top cultivators, going against their word would affect their mindset greatly."

Holding her sword, Mu Lingxi walked over and pointed it to Qiu Yu's forehead. "No need to speak further. Since I said I'll ask forgiveness from Zhang Ruochen, I will definitely try my best to save you."
