The sight of Lu Sangjiu's innocent expression infuriated Qin Yu. He couldn't help but sneer, "Save me? It looked to me like you deliberately let them come over to gang up on me!"
Lu Sangjiu's eyes widened slightly, brimming with shock and hurt. "Senior Brother Qin, how could you think such a thing? We're both disciples of the Seven Emotions Sect. Why would I ever help an outsider deal with you?"
"Isn't it just because…" Qin Yu stopped himself mid-sentence. 'That was close.' He had almost blurted out that he'd tried to kill Lu Sangjiu on Luoya Mountain.
Luckily, he stopped himself in time and changed tack. "…it's because you're jealous of my junior sister, so you wanted to get us killed!"
Lu Sangjiu: "…"
She really couldn't help it. She looked at Qin Yu as if he were a complete idiot.
Her stare annoyed Qin Yu, and just as he was about to say something else, Lu Sangjiu suddenly clutched her chest, her face contorted in pain.
"I… COUGH COUGH COUGH!"
