Shan Yifeng furrowed his brows. "But Master, didn't we help the hua family before? I even entered the dragon and Phoenix tournament on their behalf."
"We did," Ace replied. "And I believe they have already repaid that debt in full."
Shan Yifeng nodded, satisfied with the answer.
Ace continued, "Sarah, Hua Sarah, is too strong. I also have reasons to believe that she is already a realm above Legend Rank."
"Master!" Liu Mei gasped, suddenly springing upright. "There's a rank above Legend?! Ahhh yessss!"
"Calm down," Ace said, but it was already too late.
With a blur of motion, Liu Mei threw herself into his embrace, tears brimming in her eyes.
"Master…" she sniffled, her voice trembling with relief. "I thought… I thought I wouldn't have anything left to do after reaching Legend Rank. That you wouldn't have anything to reach me anymore."
Ace blinked in surprise as she clung to him like a child seeking comfort. "Why would you think that?"
