Chapter 46 Uprooting

The old woman looked at Qin Lingxiao's palm.

The fair hand gently held the shriveled, pitch-black fruit.

Frowning, she couldn't help but say:

"The Yin Fruit..."

She stared intently at Qin Lingxiao's eyes:

"Do you know what consequences choosing this fruit will bring?"

Having made the choice, Qin Lingxiao now appeared calm and composed:

"I know."

The old woman couldn't help but ask:

"Then why still choose it?"

"To choose this fruit means you will be confined here in this cage just like me!"

"A thousand years, ten thousand years, without ever seeing the sun!"

Qin Lingxiao was silent for a moment, then said:

"I... am wholeheartedly pursuing the Dao, and if I can get just a glimpse of a higher realm, even if I'm confined here, it's enough."

The old woman looked at her:

"Is that truly all there is to it?"

A smile appeared on Qin Lingxiao's face as she countered:

"Otherwise, what reason do you think there is?"

The old woman said nothing, just looked at her.
