Seeing this, Li Tianming found it a little amusing. "Senior Sister Wei, is something the matter? Honestly, I'm more used to your proud and unruly side."
"Li Tianming, I actually came to apologize to you..." Wei Wuji lowered her head slightly and spoke sincerely.
"Apologize?" Li Tianming raised an eyebrow slightly.
Wei Wuji nodded and slowly said, "Yes. Before this, our Divine Path Alliance compromised with the Young Emperor Sovereign because we feared the divine might of the Li Imperial Clan. In the end, bringing the Young Emperor Sovereign here led to a whole series of troubles afterward. When all was said and done, that decision did wrong by you..."
Hearing this, Li Tianming put away his joking expression and said calmly, "You don't actually need to apologize. This matter had nothing to do with you. To be honest, you had no standing to interfere or change the outcome anyway."
"You're right." Wei Wuji nodded and admitted it frankly. She continued, "But I'm apologizing on behalf of my mother. At the end of the day, I'm her daughter too. I sincerely apologize for the decision she made."
"Your mother did nothing wrong either. Seeking benefit and avoiding harm is only human nature. No one had any obligation to risk themselves for me." Li Tianming said calmly, "Besides, she and I had already made an agreement. If necessary, I would leave the Divine Path Alliance, so as not to implicate her."
Wei Wuji was greatly surprised upon hearing that, her green eyes—identical to her mother's—widening.
"So you don't blame us at all?" she asked in astonishment.
Li Tianming smiled. "If I jumped into the water and was about to drown, should I hate the people who didn't pull me out?"
Wei Wuji was even more astonished. Her red lips parted slightly.
