Su Xian's lengthy talk with Meng Xiangyi
As if in a fleeting moment, a whole month had passed.
During this period, Ye Chen had been confined to the Heavenly Blade Sect. His master had imposed this punishment upon him, partly to discipline him, and partly to shield him from the outrage of the people.
Word had spread like wildfire that Ye Chen was a demon's accomplice.
However, there were still some who stood by him.
Elder Hua and her followers, who believed in Ye Chen's integrity, were among his staunch supporters.
There were also his loyal friends from different factions who refused to let the rumors tarnish Ye Chen's reputation. Unfortunately, their efforts at restoring Ye Chen's reputation yielded no good results.
Lastly, the only member of the royal family who still had faith in him was the second princess, Wang Ying.
