Under the Glaring Moonlight

"Why not just fight?" 

Ming Yue looked at Ling Xue, curiously.

With how she had reacted to Mu Jing, Ming Yue had believed that Ling Xue would've fought to kill them. 

"Like me, Mu Jing is also a princess but of the Mu Clan. Unlike me, she has been pampered all her life. As annoying as she is, killing her outright would start a bloody war between the two clans. For now, we're only skirmishing with each other and the main goal is the secret realm. After all, an all out battle would incur severe losses to both clans and that is something neither sides want."

"So an ambush like before would have worked?"  Ming Yue spoke with doubt.

Such an underhanded method would suffice but killing them right now would start a battle? She found it rather silly.
