Primordial: I! An Interception Sect traitor, slaying Celestial of Fixed Light at the start

"What exactly happened to you? Why is there such a dark aura shrouding your entire body? I thought you were a bad guy.

"Hurry inside and tell me all about it."

With that, Li Changsheng welcomed Daoist Yimei into his home with everyone else. They were now living in a secret chamber, and everyone else had withdrawn.

Li Changsheng spoke worriedly.

"Tell me, what exactly happened? Why have you become so bedraggled?

"I remember that when you left last time, you said you were going to deal with someone. Yet you never returned after all this time. During that period, I looked for you.

"But there was no trace of you. I never expected you to come back like this.

"Tell me what happened."

After hearing Li Changsheng say so much, Daoist Yimei knew that he was worried about him. But how could he bring himself to tell him about it?

If he told Li Changsheng that he had been captured by them and subjected to terrible torture, would Li Changsheng laugh at him? Once that thought arose,

he no longer knew how to speak to Li Changsheng. Li Changsheng, however, understood his old friend best. Seeing that expression on his face, he knew Daoist Yimei was hiding something from him.

So he said firmly,

"If you truly consider me a good friend, then tell me what happened right now. But if you refuse, then from now on, we will sever all ties.

"We'll pretend we never knew each other. How about that?"

The moment Daoist Yimei heard Li Changsheng say that, he panicked. He did not want to lose such a good friend, so he immediately walked over to Li Changsheng and said,

"The reason I didn't want to tell you was because I didn't want you to worry.
