Que Fu did not want to give up. Now that things had come to this point, he had no regrets: "Come with me and leave. There will always be a place where the king cannot find us, no matter where the world is."
Que Fu had high hopes, but Yan Li just shook his head, and even the hand that Que Fu was holding began to struggle.
Outside the castle, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and torrential rain poured down, but it couldn't drown out the voices of those people.
