"Huh?" Hearing this, Nie Yun was mortified.
'To think that I, the dignified Blood Prison Demon Venerable who lived for hundreds of years, was being called a lecher...'
'It's no wonder, though. I was so lost in memories of my past life that I forgot I was staring straight at her. Under the circumstances, it would be strange if I *wasn't* labeled a pervert!'
"Heh, kid, don't get any funny ideas. This is the princess of our Iron Rock Mercenary Corps, the leader's daughter. With your level of strength, you've got a long way to go!"
Just as Nie Yun was feeling awkward, a hearty laugh rang out from among the Mercenaries.
If he were plotting against them, he would have already known who Tie Lan was. Seeing him make such a fool of himself over her dispelled the group's suspicions, and their attitude softened considerably.
"I..."
Nie Yun never expected to be misunderstood like this. He wanted to explain, but he didn't know what to say.
