"And I hold myself to that same standard. The Bai Lingmiao of the past was Bai Lingmiao, and the Bai Lingmiao of today is also Bai Lingmiao—a better Bai Lingmiao!" As she spoke, her eyes seemed to glow.
"Also, don't you forget, you killed my entire family." The words sent a paralyzing jolt through Li Huowang.
"My past self was always torn, unable to let go of anything. I couldn't forgive you, but I couldn't let go of my dead family either.
"But I'm different now. I know they were part of the White Lotus Sect, and I understand what they planned to do to you. So now, I can only say that you weren't wrong to kill them. In that situation, if you hadn't killed them, you would have been the one to die.
"You see? I think so clearly now. I don't hesitate at all, and I feel no pain whatsoever!"
