The Argos Palace (2)

Xuan Qiaoqiao said to Ji Yuan, "I'm heading to the Cardinal Cathedral now. I shall see you soon enough."

Although she seemed to be speaking to Ji Yuan but she was also putting a warning to Jun Qianfeng as well not to mess around with her 'slave'.

Ji Yuan acknowledged immediately as they had earlier rehearsed what to say, "Yes, Your Holiness."

With that, Xuan Qiaoqiao began to head in another direction. 

Ji Yuan could see that immediately a dozen of the cultivator sentries that had surrounded them earlier were all following her. 

Ji Yuan bitterly thought: I have thought that the Cardinal Priestess is only facing problems from her elders but it seemed to him that she was also facing strict surveillance from the others too. 

Jun Feitian said quickly to his elder sister Jun Qianfeng, "I'll leave this slave with you. I will go check on the Cardinal Priestess."
