"I understand."
Ming Liya said in a resolute tone, "This is also my own choice, my own path. I shall walk it myself and never regret it!"
"Fine... you may go."
"Goodbye, and thank you, Master Zhou, for your concern for this sinner."
The line went dead on Ming Liya's end.
Zhou Dawei's face darkened, and he said coldly, "When I return safely to Sheng Capital, the first thing I will do is slay that libertine waste, who has reduced my chosen disciple to such a state! I shall see if that damn Royal Family dares to quarrel with me over a mere collateral bloodline!"
Lin Liz, a member of that damned Royal Family, kept silent, not daring to speak.
She knew that Zhou Dawei was already showing signs of mutation.
Therefore, his greatest wish over the years had been to recruit a disciple, to pass on his legacy. Xu Jieke's visit had something to do with this...
But unexpectedly, he had taken an interest in Ming Liya, who had come as a sinner.
