"This is a suggestion I overheard when the elders were having a secret meeting. I don't know what their final decision was, but… let's go up! Don't go down!"
Spirit You expressed sincere and deep remorse as they looked at Jiang Chen, eyes filled with heavy guilt.
Jiang Chen fell silent for a moment, then smiled slightly and patted Spirit You on the shoulder:
"I can understand the thoughts of your clan members. Having waited for a thousand years, they finally found a true heir to Lord Xue. They dare not take any more chances. They want me to stay within Unchanging Valley, not only to imprison me but also with the intent to protect me. They can't risk me struggling alone in the outside world. If something unfortunate happened to me, their hopes would be shattered!"
