章 1933: They Were Here to Win

Before Gu Ning managed to finish her sentence, Leng Shaoting interrupted her as he embraced her tightly as though he was worried she might leave him.

"Don't worry. I am sure you stand a chance of becoming a cultivator. Even if you didn't, I will live as long as you do. When you, grandpa, and all my friends are gone, there is no point living out my life alone. Although my mother and master would be upset, I am sure they can empathize," said Leng Shaoting as he comforted Gu Ning even though he was clearly the one that needed consoling.

"Shaoting, trust me. I will definitely become a cultivator. Have you forgotten that I am no ordinary woman? From the moment I regained consciousness after the accident, I stopped being ordinary. With the kind of luck I have, I am bound to become a cultivator," comforted Gu Ning. She did not tell him about the Blood of the Phoenix. After all, it was not something she could explain easily.
