After a long time, he finally sighed heavily and said, "But I still want to thank you. If it weren't for you, even if I could escape this time, it wouldn't have been easy."
Duan Xiyang turned his head, glanced at Sun Wutian's face, and said, "I dragged you into this, as I have already explained very clearly. You're just a scapegoat."
"I get it!"
Sun Wutian's anger flared up again, "But you damn well intervened! Since you did, it's worth my saying thank you!"
A hint of amusement flashed in the depths of Duan Xiyang's eyes.
Looking at the still-rising clouds and dust, he said calmly, "Chief Protector, there's something I've always been curious about."
Upon hearing Duan Xiyang's mention of 'Chief Protector', Sun Wutian couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions, overwhelmed with various sentiments.
Steadying himself, he said silently, "Ask."
"Why did you use a lie as the foundation of your sword?"
Duan Xiyang asked.
This was something he couldn't understand.
