Luo Cheng tried to explain, but Murong Yunyi refused to listen. He said coldly, "Fine. If you won't come back, then don't come back at all. From this moment on, the Luo family is no longer affiliated with the Murong family."
After saying this, Murong Yunyi hurriedly cupped his hands toward Li Xu. "Master Li Xu, this person was not brought here by the Murong family, and he has no connection to us whatsoever. You may punish him as you see fit."
The color drained from Luo Cheng's face, and his mind went blank. His mouth hung open, wanting to say something, but not a single word came out.
Those words from Young Master Murong Yunyi had obviously cast the Luo family completely aside. Without the Murong family's protection, the Luo family would be like rootless waterweed among the many aristocratic families of the Imperial Capital, liable to be wiped out at any moment.
