"If I don't go, Great Zhou will be destroyed," Zhou Xuanji looked at Xian Xianghua and said solemnly.
"Then let Great Zhou be destroyed. That's not your business. Why are you pretending to be benevolent?" Xian Xianghua frowned and said.
The courtyard was silent. Everyone looked at them nervously and did not even dare to breathe loudly.
Zhou Xuanji stood up, and they looked at each other in the eyes. Neither backed down in their attitude.
"I'm not pretending to be benevolent. I promised them. If I'm not principled enough to keep my words and just live for the sake of staying alive, then I'll be like rats and carrions. What's the meaning of living, then?" He said softly with determination, but he did not move Xian Xianghua.
"But you will die. If you die, what meaning does a promise have?"
Xian Xianghua retorted.
Why is this brat so stubborn?
Zhou Xuanji asked back, "How do you know that I will surely die?"
