Chapter 477: Fight Till Death?!

"... What makes you think the outcome would be any different if you reject me now?"

Ember remained silent, reeling in all the disgust and anger.

Instead of responding to Jidu, she eyed Hakuja, her former master and the person who had abandoned her once in front of the same person.

"So history repeats, huh..." She muttered, looking straight at him.

Hakuja could not meet her eyes. 

He had chosen again, to protect his people over her.

It felt as if something was stuck in her throat as she remembered the times this old man used to scold her. 

Something was pricking at her heart and her eyes.

The memories of her master blended into the time when he looked on as her cultivation had been stolen by Jidu before.

It was her fault to forget that betrayal so quickly. 

The lines between pain and indignation blurred slowly in her heart as the temperature started rising in the surroundings.
