Bing Rong didn't stop walking as she replied, "She is one of the Inner Sect elders here, her cultivation is a lot higher than mine since she became an Inner Sect Elder a long time ago, while I only became an Inner Sect elder in recent years."
Shen Yuan raised an eyebrow, "Oh? But she seemed to be treating you quite nicely despite being much higher in rank. Any special reason for that?"
Bing Rong nodded her head slowly, "Yes, it's because of Master. She is one of the strongest members of the sect. So, as her disciples, me and Huo Rong get special treatment wherever we go."
She paused slightly as she thought back to Lan Rui, "But she is like a friend to me, since we have spent quite a significant time together when I was a disciple and she used to teach us in the Outer Sect sometimes."
Shen Yuan nodded his head in understanding, "So, is she a mentor-like figure to you?"
Bing Rong shook her head, "She is more like our Big Sister than a mentor."
