Chapter 117: Her Decision
Lowering her eyes, Xu Xiang frowned and thought: ’Choices... In the end, how many choices do I have to make?’
Just when Xu Xiang was irritated by the countless choices she had to make, Mu Yucheng’s calm and cold voice suddenly came.
"If Miss Xu wants to go back to your world, you should save it first. If the world will eventually perish, what is the point for you to go back." As he spoke, he looked directly into her eyes.
As if Mu Yucheng’s words pulled her out of the chaos within her mind, Xu Xiang’s thoughts instantly cleared up. She raised her head, looked at Mu Yucheng’s expressionless face, and said, "I understand."
She then looked at Mu Zhihe again and said, "I had made my decision. I will take this responsibility, as long as I can save my world. Even if there is only a slight chance for me to return to my world, I will take it. I will do my best to change the fate of our worlds."
Hearing her firm answer, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and smiled gratefully at her. Mu Zhihe picked up the small wooden box on top of the table containing the Dragon and Phoenix ring, closed it, and handed it to his disciple.
He looked at Xu Xiang again, and said, "Miss Xu, I will let Yucheng accompany you on this long journey. With him by your side, your journey will be less dangerous. After you complete the prophecy, and if you want to return to your world, just tell Yucheng. I have already told him in advance how to send you back to your world."
Mu Zhihe paused for a moment, and then said, "Please remember that this is a one-way trip. After returning to your world, you will have no way to come back here. I hope you will choose carefully when the time comes."
As soon as he said these words, everyone present stood up, cupped their fists and bowed to her. Their voices were solemn and full of gratitude, when they said in unison: "We thank Miss Xu Xiang on behalf of all sentient beings in this world. Thank you for choosing to save our world."
