By the end, Jiang Xiaochen's voice was tinged with worry. Clearly, he knew that his current situation was very wrong, but he just couldn't do it!
Even though he clearly remembered the past, and knew that he was His Highness King Qin Guang, and even had an inescapable responsibility to the souls in the underworld, he still couldn't get over it in his heart. What should he do?
He didn't want to become a completely different person. If possible, Jiang Xiaochen hoped that he could stay with Zhong Yan forever and not have to think about anything.
Now, there's only Luo Li around. As long as he pretends not to know anything, this matter will just pass by! Then, he can also shirk his responsibility as King Yama and not care about anything.
Luo Li was stunned. She never expected that Jiang Xiaochen would say such a thing. Everyone knew that when he was in charge of the palace, he was known for his incorruptibility.
Now!
"Aren't you worried that if the world eventually collapses, Zhong Yan will also be disillusioned?"
"Don't worry!" Jiang Xiaochen looked at him like he was an idiot: "Luo Li, have you forgotten that Zhong Yan is a true god? In that case, even if the world is destroyed, she will be fine."
If that's the case, then what is there to worry about!
Luo Li was speechless. She never expected him to have such thoughts! Was this really appropriate? After thinking it over, she still felt that she couldn't keep up with his pace.
"Jiang Xiaochen, are you serious?"
“Of course, I’m more serious than ever.” Jiang Xiaochen looked at him quietly: “Luo Li, I’m giving you a choice. You decide your future path.”
"No, you've gone mad!" Luo Li took a step back awkwardly, her expression incredibly ugly: "Does Zhong Yan know what you're thinking? Jiang Xiaochen, you actually want this world to perish with you! You'll regret it, you'll definitely regret it."
"No." Jiang Xiaochen had already made up his mind to stand by Zhong Yan's side, so what was there to regret? Once the other Yama Kings in the other palaces returned to their positions, the restoration of the Underworld would have to be put on the agenda, and at that time, Zhong Yan would probably have to contribute.
So, what should she do next?
"Luo Li, I don't believe you don't know this is a path of no return! If that's the case, why force Zhong Yan to take it? Don't you have a heart? What if something happens to her? What will we do then?"
"I……"
“You know that, right!” Jiang Xiaochen sighed softly, “From the very beginning, you’ve had this in mind. You wanted to hide it, you wanted to be the first to know what was going on, all to protect Zhong Yan, right? I just don’t believe you can really stand by and watch something happen to her in the future! Believe me, you will suffer more than anyone else when that happens, really.”
Explain with emotion and reason.
Moreover, he had already grasped all of Luo Li's weaknesses, so he wasn't afraid that Luo Li wouldn't give in! Under such circumstances, Luo Li could only remain silent.
To be more precise, he didn't really know how to describe his feelings!
His heart was pounding, no, it was neither up nor down! He never expected Jiang Xiaochen to make such a bold move; judging by this, no one else would do it.
What else could he say?
Luo Li took a deep breath, trying to appear calm: "Jiang Xiaochen, what if Zhong Yan insists on going forward?"
