Standing outside the Sacred Wall Forbidden Ground, Xiong Tingting found herself in tears without even realizing it.
She had thought that no matter what happened on this mission, Sikong Jing could never possibly give up Pei Xie over a tiny chess piece like her.
Yet he had agreed anyway. How could she not be moved?
Thud...
All of a sudden, she dropped heavily to her knees in Sikong Jing's direction...
"Young Master Sikong, I will never forget your great kindness. In truth, I am in contact with a Thousand Prison Tower chess piece. Later, I will persuade him in my own name to fight alongside us."
Hearing Xiong Tingting's words, Sikong Jing, atop the Armor-Splitting Flying Scorpion, shuddered slightly and turned back.
Once he understood what Xiong Tingting meant, he clasped his fists heavily. "Then I'll trouble you. Put your life first in all things—there's no need to force it."
He knew that what Xiong Tingting was doing was extremely risky, so he offered her that warning.
Before this, Xiong Tingting had always maintained an attitude of: I simply won't reveal Young Master Sikong's secrets, and as for whether I will follow you in resisting the Thousand Kings Holy Tower, that will depend on what happens later...
But now, she was completely prepared to risk her life alongside Sikong Jing, even if it meant never seeing her daughter again.
In her own name, she would persuade another Thousand Prison Tower chess piece with whom she had contact to follow Sikong Jing as well.
Originally, Xiong Tingting would never have revealed this matter and taken such a risk.
But now, she had been moved by Sikong Jing.
Thus, the two exchanged a few more words regarding this new so-called chess piece before parting... Sikong Jing would head to Overlord Heaven City
