Inside the hall, Bai Li Hongzhuang and the others found their respective places to sit. However, Gu Jinghe's attitude remained unchanged, and her gaze towards Sutu Yan was filled with hostility.
Clearly, the years of resentment and disgust could not be easily eliminated. The fact that Gu Jinghe had allowed them to enter the Sun Moon Palace was already a considerable concession.
Sutu Yan was well aware of Gu Jinghe's displeasure and resentment towards him, so he quietly sat by the side without saying a word.
"Now that you've come in, you can tell me what difficulties you have. You can speak up now," Gu Jinghe said coldly, not believing that Sutu Yan had any legitimate reasons.
What kind of difficulties could make him betray Mu Jinse for so many years? Moreover, Mu Jinse was pregnant with his child when she left! Any man in such a situation would never abandon Mu Jinse.
The most shameless part was that Sutu Yan betrayed Mu Jinse because he liked her friend. What did this man take Mu Jinse for throughout the whole ordeal?
Sutu Yan looked up at Gu Jinghe. He knew that he had made an unforgivable mistake in the past, but it was still difficult for him to speak about it in front of everyone.
Bai Li Hongzhuang and the others exchanged glances. They understood Sutu Yan's thoughts.
Regardless, Sutu Yan was still the dignified Sect Master of the Heavenly Star Sect, and the situation back then was too complicated to be discussed in front of a woman.
"Grand Elder, let me be the one to tell you the whole story," Mu Lingbing gestured to Gu Jinghe. It was most appropriate for her to explain the situation to the Grand Elder.
Gu Jinghe, seeing Sutu Yan still trying to hide the truth at this point, became even more infuriated. "He didn't feel ashamed when he abandoned his wife back then, but now he's worried about losing face by speaking out?"
Mu Lingbing walked to Gu Jinghe's side and said, "Grand Elder, this matter is quite complicated. Let me slowly explain it to you. If my father really was such a person, how could I, with my personality, ever forgive him?"
Hearing Mu Lingbing's words, Gu Jinghe looked deeply at Mu Lingbing, recalling her previous dissatisfaction and anger towards her parents' abandonment. The fire in her heart subsided somewhat.
Indeed, if even Mu Lingbing could accept all of this, then what couldn't she accept?
At Mu Lingbing's request, Gu Jinghe followed her into another room, leaving Bai Li Hongzhuang and the others waiting in the hall.
Sutu Yan's current concern was clearly not about these matters. He wanted to know the current situation of Mu Jinse.
During their ascent from the foot of the mountain, Mu Lingbing had already informed them that Mu Jinse had not perished.
It was because of this news that they all had some patience to wait here.
Even so, they were still eager to know about Mu Jinse's condition.
"I wonder how Grandma is doing now," Bai Li Hongzhuang's serene face showed signs of worry. According to the information Mu Lingbing had previously shared with her, Mu Jinse's condition was clearly not good.
"If the Grand Elder doesn't know the origin of all this, she probably won't give us detailed information. We can only wait now," Emperor Beichen consoled Bai Li Hongzhuang. They all eagerly awaited the return of Mu Lingbing and Gu Jinghe.
