Chapter 0857: An Open Secret
Having said his piece, Sun Xiqi didn't wait for Qi Tian to respond before he took out several jade slips and, with both hands, presented them to Qi Tian. He then stared eagerly at Qi Tian, waiting for him to take the slips.
In the years Qi Tian had been in closed-door cultivation, Sun Xiqi had been living in constant unease, fearful that Qi Tian might remember the incident that occurred in the Council Hall three years prior. It was during the time Yi Xuwen had been formulating the distribution scheme for the Fiery Cloud Secret Realm and Sun Xiqi should have stood beside Qi Tian, but he had remained silent throughout, never speaking a word in Qi Tian's defense. He knew his behavior was inexcusable and hoped to make amends with gestures like these.
Qi Tian glanced at Sun Xiqi and, smiling, accepted the jade slips, "Then I must thank Elder Sun. I will review the contents of the jade slips as soon as possible."
