A hush fell, and Yang Yi finally revealed his entire plan, which then stunned everyone.
Annastasia stared at Yang Yi, and with a puzzled look on her face, she said, "You're rich, holding more wealth than ordinary people could even dream of. You have power—if your goal weren't the demise of the Grey-cloaked People, but to attain power instead, you could become one of the most powerful people in the world. You're young, you have someone you love and who loves you back. What reason do you have to abandon all of this merely for an opportunity that seems so ethereal?"
Yang Yi smiled wryly, and with a look of helplessness, he replied, "Haven't I told you it's about ideals? Do I need any other reason?"
Annastasia said earnestly, "To abandon everything for an ideal might be comprehensible, but why do you hold such an ideal? What drives you to achieve it?"
Yang Yi's smile faded.
