The news of that Xiao Xingchen and and Song Zichen handled the box arrived in Qinghe Nie Sect. Lan Wangji sent a talisman letter that explained what was in the box and how they handled it. Nie Mingjue was training some troops when he noticed a woman was coming his way, she was Luo Qingyang, she approached him and bowed:
"Sect Leader Nie."
Nie Mingjue:
"Lady Luo, what is the matter?"
Luo Qingyang:
"I would like to pay my respects to you and leave."
Nie Mingjue signed the troops to stop as he led Luo Qingyang into the throne room, he looked at her and asked:
"Lady Luo, where will you go?"
Luo Qingyang:
"I don't know. The world is vast and I have my trustworthy sword."
Nie Mingjue held back his tears and said:
"Lady Luo, don't leave."
Luo Qingyang:
"So as to stay with you so-called righteous sect leaders? Where were you when Wei Wuxian was being falsely accused?"
Nie Mingjue:
"Master Wei kept a critical truth from the people."
Luo Qingyang:
"Would it matter? Was he lying when he said Master Jin was killing the innocents? Was he lying when he told that the guards abused the prisoners? Sect Leader Nie, that day you didn't let Sect Leader Jiang defend Wen Qing and Wen Ning. I am sorry, if those two helped Sect Leader Jiang, Lady Jiang and Wei Wuxian as Sect Leader Jiang was about to tell that day, doesn't this mean that those siblings already went against Wen Rouhan? Do they have to bloody their hands to be worthy of your acknowledgement?!"
Nie Mingjue thought "she indeed has a backbone" he said:
"Lady Luo, I... Chifeng-Zun is sorry."
Tears streamed down Nie Mingjue's face, Luo Qingyang looked at him with shock as he continued:
"My temper was bad that day, the blade spirit was haunting me especially after the Sunshot Campaign, it was hard to restrain the resentment of Baxia. I didn't know all the deeds those siblings did. They were loyal subordinates of Wen Rouhan."
Luo Qingyang:
"So what? I was a loyal subordinate of Jin Zixuan, look where we are now! Chifeng-Zun, if you continue like that, you will hurt your brothers!"
Luo Qingyang was getting ready to leave, Nie Mingjue caught her wrist and said:
"Lady Luo, don't leave."
Luo Qingyang said nothing, Nie Mingjue was now thinking of how to say his words, he managed to say:
"Don't leave, stay in the Unclean Realm. I wanted to find you after the Sunshot Campaign, I wanted to find you and compliment to your face, just like I did back when you defended Wei Wuxian. You have some backbone, you are a strong cultivator."
Luo Qingyang:
"So what? You sect leaders, you are all disgusting, you all see the things as you wish to see like."
Nie Mingjue:
"Lady Luo, you have some backbone."
Nie Mingjue's voice wasn't fierce at all, in fact his voice was full of admiration and respect, Luo Qingyang looked him in the eyes, not even blinking:
