Jing Zhichen paused, then continued, "If we don't report at the designated time, it would be breaking the rules; while moving around the Imperial City without a pass would violate rules too, leading to a trial in the Supernatural Court... Miss Lan, you might not understand the rules, but you mustn't challenge them; the consequences are too severe."
Qin Xin was utterly confused.
Indeed, she did not know what "rules" Jing Zhichen was referring to.
She had lived in the Imperial City for nearly 20 years and had never heard of such rules!
Could it be that after taking the supernatural exam, she couldn't even return home?
The thought of Nalan Ye Jue anxiously waiting for her, worried and sleepless, made her very anxious.
She took a deep breath, "I'll bear the consequences myself."
Jing Zhichen was rendered speechless by this stubborn girl.
Everyone in the Imperial City feared the rules.
But she seemed to not care at all...
