The vast starry sky.
The suddenly darkened night sky was dotted with starlight, the stars illuminating the sky that should have been forever shrouded in darkness, as if they were in a continuous line.
Starlight fell into his eyes.
His master's voice rang in his ears:
“Amo”.
"You only know that the town of Zhaixing has produced neutrals for generations, but you don't know that the town of Zhaixing was not originally called Zhaixing, but Qiming."
"We try to set things right in this chaotic world, but we can't intervene in its joys and sorrows, and we doubt ourselves time and time again."
"How tragic that we want to be helpers in the lines of fate where the order has been disrupted, yet we cannot intervene."
"We suppress ourselves time and time again."
"In the end, they will all fall into the trap."
"No neutral party is completely 100% uninvolved."
"There are always neutral parties who are swept up by the fluctuations of fate, flowing along the river of time into the direction of others, which makes human relationships complicated."

He then said:
"We were never defeated by her."
"We are in a relationship where we are willing to make sacrifices."
Just like the day we first met.
He still remembered how he had accidentally landed at the wrong spot and fallen down the steep slope in a disheveled state when he first met Ye Qi—
He watched as Ye Qi carefully climbed down, pushing aside the branches and ignoring her cut skin. Her hair was a mess, and blood seeped from the numerous fine cuts on her body. She looked just as disheveled as anyone else.
She reached out her hand to him.
Even if the other person is a stranger.
But he knew he could no longer remain uninvolved.
Because—
She is really nice.
At first, he couldn't bear to see such a good person be driven out of this world.
