章 1889: Found Out

"I don't accept this!" Rage filled Sokzac's heart, a torrent of black lightning crossing through his skin and piercing toward the clouds above. 

"My father has already decided." Lilith replied in a cool voice. 

In truth, she felt pity both for herself and Sokzac. On one hand, her father pawned her off without a second thought, but on the other, Sokzac, too, was undeserving of this. In reality, he was deserving of far worse!

As her cultivation increased, Lilith's sensitivity to certain things also increased. 

Back in Soul Universe, after she had had her soul injured by Dyon, she suddenly felt a spike in her affection for Sokzac. Though this affection was eventually stifled by stronger disgust, those feelings back then were real. 

For a moment, she had truly wanted to rely on Sokzac, to even start treating him more as a fiancé, to maybe see where their relationship would lead.
