Pei Donglai's heart trembled, and he was so moved he wanted to kneel before Lin Xiao.
Just yesterday, his cultivation had been restored, and he thought he could finally provide a better life for his sister. But today's reality had hit him hard, making him realize with bitter frustration that even with his now heaven-defying cultivation, he couldn't even stand up to a second-rate family. The feeling of powerless defeat left him deeply dejected. But then, at his most desperate moment, Lin Xiao had spoken those words.
Moved. He was overcome with an indescribable sense of gratitude.
Pei Donglai knew Lin Xiao was no ordinary person, so he didn't doubt his words for a second. With Lin Xiao's promise, he knew no one in Jinling City would ever be able to bully him again.
"Captain, thank you. I really mean it. Rest assured, from now on, I'll do whatever you ask," Pei Donglai said, his body trembling with emotion.
