The weak cry out with all their might, yet no one cares; The strong whisper softly, yet their words penetrate deeply into the heart. A Talent Tree ablaze with flames, every leaf bearing different spirit runes, Lu Ye, reduced to a mining slave after his sect was destroyed, used this to become a cultivator and stirred the winds of change in the Nine Provinces...
After much hesitation, Phong Yue finally approached Lu Ye.
Lu Ye reached out and grabbed her hand.
Phong Yue's body shivered, flustered and closing her eyes, she mustered her courage and gritted her teeth, "Even if you have me, you won't have my heart..."
"Ha..." A strange sound came from Lu Ye, and as Phong Yue squinted to look, she saw the young man in front of her taking out a big seal and breathing on it before stamping it onto the back of her hand.
The moment the big seal was pressed down, something ethereal changed; Phong Yue distinctly felt a hidden connection form between her battlefield marking and the Righteous Blood Sect's Heaven's Augury Pillar.
Her eyes widened in shock.
"What did you say?" Lu Ye put away his Governor's big seal and gave her a curious look.
"Nothing... nothing at all." Phong Yue felt happiness come so swiftly she was momentarily at a loss, remembering her previous misunderstanding, her face flushed red.
