Everyone was looking at White as if he was some kind of lunatic.
No one expected that there would be someone who could reject five Union High Elders at once just because of some silly promise and beliefs.
"Do you even know what you're rejecting?" The tenth High Elder of the devil race's voice was somewhat cold now.
White nodded and said, full of bitterness, "I know. But I'm a man of my word, especially if those words are my last promise to my parents. I promised my father that I would never run from hardship and always strive to be better. While I promise my mother that I will become a righteous man.
"From that day onward, I also live by these words, and I know if I chose to abandon this path now, I would never have a path of my own. Besides, Elders didn't want someone who could flip to any side just because of some riches, right?"
