Chapter 491
"Master Lady, this time you can get a closer look and even try touching it," Su Wen said. "I’ve made a deal with the river of time. As long as you don’t overdo it, they’ll turn a blind eye."
"Thank you for protecting me these past years, Master Lady! May all your wishes come true, and may your martial path be prosperous in the days to come!"
With that, Su Wen stepped back and appeared within the light pillar of the river of time. He clasped his hands together and bowed respectfully toward Rui, the Master Lady.
By entering the light pillar of the river of time, he had, in a sense, already left this time and space. As a result, the fortune of the current Great Gods in this time and space would no longer backlash onto Rui.
This bow was his way of expressing gratitude for the care Rui had shown him during this time. He deeply felt her kindness.
For Su Wen, those who treated him well would always hold a special place in his heart. It didn’t matter what their initial intentions were or what thoughts lay behind their kindness. The fact that they treated him well was undeniable.
Why overthink it? As long as they cared for him and didn’t mean him harm, that was enough.
"This child…" Rui watched Su Wen bow, a radiant smile spreading across her face.
In truth, she had understood far more about the recent incident involving the Fighting God than she had let on. Some things didn’t need to be said aloud. Keeping them in her heart was enough. Was there really a need to bring everything out into the open?
