He refused to leave.
And leaving had become an impossible option for him.
He had bungled the entire situation, forfeiting any right to continue in this world. Even if Gu Chaoyan took no action against him, he would be unable to face himself.
In such a dire circumstance, he decided to take the ultimate risk.
Elder Lin's gaze fixated on Gu Chaoyan.
He had always admired this man, believing he could be of use to him.
Throughout his life, he had never committed an error, but this time, he had faltered.
Elder Lin relentlessly pressed his attack on Gu Chaoyan, declaring, "We won't cease until one of us falls. Come!"
Gu Chaoyan was taken aback; this was not what she had anticipated. Elder Lin had been her protector back at the Supreme Sect, and she never thought events would unfold in this manner.
