"I was bound to the Young Master through life and death. If he lived, I lived. If he died, I died!" Hei Meier said resolutely.
"Holy Maiden, what exactly is so good about him that he has bewitched you like this?" Hei Yuntao said, furious that she refused to improve.
From the very beginning, she had not thought highly of Xiao Chen. Yet after watching him turn the tide twice in succession, she had already begun to see him in a somewhat better light!
But when Xiao Chen decided to defend Black Cloud City to the death, she felt that she had been wrong!
Xiao Chen was foolish beyond redemption.
If a city could be defended, defending it was called righteousness soaring to the heavens.
If it could not be defended and one insisted on holding it, that was called seeking one's own death!
They could originally have withdrawn.
Yet now, because of Xiao Chen's rash decision, they would all die here.
"Little Tao, I see things differently from you. From the day I met Xiao Chen until now, he has never done anything without confidence. Since he dared to go, he must have a backup plan!" Jin Xian'er had not chosen to leave either, and was traveling with Hei Meier and the others.
Though she was practical, she was also clever.
She knew that without Xiao Chen's protection—
she would definitely fall back into Hei Shitian's clutches.
Thus, she chose to face this together with Xiao Chen.
"A backup plan? What backup plan could he possibly have? Even Senior Redhorn Dragon Toad said he could not withstand them. Could Xiao Chen possibly be stronger than them?" Hei Yuntao refused to accept it.
Jin Xian'er smiled and said nothing more.
Within the sea of clouds.
Everyone was like burning stars.
