With the communication talisman dispatched, the weight of the world seemed to lift from Wang Li's shoulders. He let out a long breath, feeling lighter than before.
"What do you think?" Xia Bingling asked, her voice a gentle caress. "Will Sect Leader Huang listen to the warning?"
Wang Li shrugged, a wry smile playing on his lips. "Who knows? Maybe he'll listen, maybe he won't. But if he doesn't, then whatever happens to the Stone Mountain Sect…" he trailed off, letting the implication hang heavy in the air. "He'll have no one to blame but himself."
The truth was, he desperately hoped the warning would land. He didn't want Ye Fan to get away with potentially causing more harm, nor did he want the Stone Mountain Sect to suffer any further.
