Honestly speaking, no one could face death calmly. Hong Dali naturally couldn't do so too.
He transmigrated here when saving two children, that was because he didn't have time to think about what would happen if he died. But things were different now. He was practically facing death itself now, and death could befall on him at any moment.
Therefore, it would be good even if he could live only for a little longer—at least, being able to speak a bit more was better than not saying anything and dying immediately.
Also, Hong Dali was really quite curious that with this Goddess nobility, did she have a boyfriend before…
Therefore, at this moment, Hong Dali's curiosity won over all else.
