Xiao Wu was immediately even more moved.
She was incredibly weak right now.
As long as someone killed her,
they could obtain a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone.
Although her soul ring could not be absorbed,
the soul bone alone was already priceless.
Yet the person before her liked her for who she was,
not because he had some other purpose.
That alone was enough to move her.
Seeing Xiao Wu's expression,
Ma Hongjun also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he had expected this outcome,
until things were truly settled,
no one knew what might happen.
Xiao Wu was not a tool he could manipulate at will, but a living, breathing person.
Naturally, she had her own thoughts and understanding.
This outcome was quite good.
After confirming this,
the atmosphere between them immediately improved greatly.
Ma Hongjun even felt that Xiao Wu had become gentler than before.
Of course,
that was perfectly normal.
After all, he had never revealed before that he knew Xiao Wu's identity.
Now that he had said it,
there was naturally a sense of mutual understanding between them.
After being moved,
Xiao Wu did not know what to say for a moment.
So the two fell silent once more.
In the end, Ma Hongjun was the one who broke the silence.
"Xiao Wu, everything I said is true. You have to believe me," Ma Hongjun said again.
Faced with Ma Hongjun's renewed assurance,
Xiao Wu said directly, "I believe you."
Ma Hongjun was overjoyed.
Hearing Xiao Wu say that,
he was finally completely relieved.
So,
he cupped Xiao Wu's face and kissed her.
Xiao Wu had not expected him to launch a surprise attack at a time like this.
She was caught off guard.
However, regarding Ma Hongjun's behavior,
she would not resist him now.
