Upon hearing the words, Lin Ke, the Supreme of Light, suddenly snapped out of his thoughts and gazed at the monk beside him with a peculiar look.
He realized that the reinforcement before him seemed to know many crucial pieces of information that he was unaware of.
If he had known earlier that he didn't need to worry about being discovered by Ma Ran, would he have lived in such fear and trepidation over the years?
Lin Ke felt extremely stifled, a mix of anger and shame, but he couldn't vent on the spot.
After all...
Lin Ke was well aware of his history of betraying teammates, a black mark he had yet to cleanse.
He had no reason to blame or criticize the higher-ups for assigning him as they did.
The monk looked calmly at Lin Ke, observing the colorful changes in his expression, from anger to depression, fully understanding the emotional journey of his temporary teammate and was quite satisfied with Lin Ke's self-awareness.
