Four Changes of Scale One

The Saint Lady lowered her regal head. She was troubled and indecisive. "I have a question for you."

"What question?"

Zhang Ruochen was surprised. This was his first time seeing the Saint Lady so uncertain.

"Did you come to save me or to search for the secret of the blood beasts?" the Saint Lady asked.

"Both!" Zhang Ruochen said matter-of-factly.

Which one is more true? The Saint Lady really wanted to ask this, but after thinking, she felt like it was too obvious. She swallowed her words.

She was the Saint Lady—representative of the Confucius Way and a Spiritual Saint. How could she ask such an immature question?

Zhang Ruochen didn't sense the Saint Lady's odd expression. "Actually, I felt quite guilty when I heard the news of you dying. At the same time, I didn't think that you'd really died, so I thought to come to the Bottomless Abyss."

"Why did you feel guilty?" the Saint Lady asked.
