Chương 720: Chapter 310: Harboring a Solitary Grudge

The bright moon ascended high, and Pei Ye stood in front of a carriage on Immortal Platform, with a woman already seated within.

After their return, they no longer spoke unnecessary words, nor did they linger in their farewells. Instead, others were saying their goodbyes to "Chief Ming," with the woman responding to each one.

Pei Ye looked at this scene, as if she were the moon surrounded by stars. He remembered the desperation on Zhu Gaoyang's face when he heard the words "Ming Qi Tian," as if he had seen a savior. Often, indeed, this woman was seen as a symbol of strength, a support that everyone relied on subconsciously.

Alone beneath the heavens, she faced danger, burdens, and loneliness… and she wasn't as well protected as everyone thought.
