"An important person to me once said, if the world is unfree, then no one can attain true freedom."
Seeing his smile, Yingming True Monarch's heart was pierced. Only at this moment did she realize that the Seven Luminaries True Monarch before her was indeed not the same as he was twenty thousand years ago. What he possesses now is a new life. Between them lies an unbridgeable chasm forevermore.
The drifting distance in this friendship is merely one person constantly moving forward while the other stays in place.
Yingming True Monarch's mind trembled. She discovered, it was she who was living in the past, unable to move on.
She looked at Fan Wubing, took a deep breath, and said earnestly,
"Defeat me, step over my corpse."
She knew that if she retreated, she would surely be looked down upon by Fan Wubing. Even she would look down on herself.
Only by wholeheartedly pursuing their respective beliefs would they show the utmost respect for each other.
