Mu Yanci had never seen before a girl who dared to reach for a longsword with her bare hands.
It was also the first time he had seen someone who, despite being nearly drained of strength, could still kill her opponent with a dagger.
It could be said, if Mu Lingyun had not fought back and killed Luo Tianqing, they would not have arrived in time, and she would have died.
Seeing that Mu Yanci said nothing, Mu Lingyun slightly raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why aren't you speaking?"
"No need to thank me," Mu Yanci spoke, "Saving you was my duty. First, I had promised His Highness that I would take good care of you. Second, with that bet made, you became my liege."
Mu Lingyun smiled but did not say much else.
Instead, she silently noted this debt of gratitude in her heart.
After all, a life-saving grace could not simply be brushed aside with a 'no need to thank me.'
She would find an opportunity to repay it in the future.
The same went for Ouyang Han.
