Ross ultimately did not charge at Ye Haochuan's Divine Concealment Sword, and he certainly wouldn't admit he was afraid of death. The reason he gave himself was that seeking one's own death in such a way was an act of cowardice shirking responsibility.
What he had to do was bear the disgrace and, in the days to come, return the shame of today intact to Huaxia.
He didn't reach out to shake Ye Haochuan's hand, but instead, using his last bit of strength, slowly stood up.
At this moment, Long Xiaotian also came in front of Ross, pretending to be "apologetic" and said, "The younger generation doesn't know any better when making a move, and I hope His Highness Ross forgives this."
Saying so, he turned his head toward Ye Haochuan, with a face full of "reprimand," saying, "You scoundrel, how could you be so harsh to His Highness Ross? The status of His Highness Ross in the Church is not something you can offend! Quick, apologize to His Highness Ross!"
