The old drunkard had said it so clearly, so Qing Gu could not say much. However, there was always a barrier in his heart that prevented him from completely giving up on his persistence over the years.
He had always thought that the Dragon and Phoenix Stars would be the people they had to wait for. Therefore, he had high hopes for these two people over the years and did not hesitate to nurture them with all his might.
If someone told him now that the Dragon and Phoenix Stars were not the people they were waiting for, wouldn't that mean that all his efforts over the years had been in vain?
How could he accept such an outcome immediately?
