Seeing her resist so tenaciously, the Hall Master couldn't help but knit his attractive eyebrows together and gently asked Sikou Yao, "Yaoyao, have you considered this from another perspective? If this invading enemy were to kill your loved ones, children, and all your other relatives and friends, would you still feel this is a responsibility and pressure you can't bear?"
Sikou Yao grimaced, looking at her Hall Master father and asked, "Daddy, are you sure it's me? Could you have got it wrong?"
Then, she smirked and said, "And besides, daddy, aren't you still here? With you around, why would your daughter even need to step forward, right?"
The Hall Master's expression suddenly darkened, "What if I'm not here ten years from now?"
Sikou Yao's face turned pale in an instant. She quickly grasped the Hall Master's hand, her voice trembling as she asked, "Daddy, don't scare me! I can't handle being frightened!"
