Yongchun's lips parted, but she said nothing, lapsing into silence. Qin Li's last words had shaken her deeply.
"I don't have a habit of letting women shield me from the storm!"
'Could it be... in his heart, I'm a woman? Not some old crone who's lived for thousands of years?'
Something had gently plucked at Yongchun's heartstrings, sending ripples through her heart.
By the time Yongchun came back to her senses, Qin Li was already far away. She wanted to call out and stop him but couldn't think of a reason. She admired Qin Li, and was even willing to help him annihilate the Hai Family, but she couldn't keep him at the Moon Shaking Immortal Palace under these circumstances. After all, by saying what he did in front of everyone today, Qin Li had basically thrown himself into an inescapable deathtrap. If he remained at the Moon Shaking Immortal Palace, wouldn't that be the same as the Palace standing with him against the Hai Family?
