Master Xiao Yue stared at Xiao Jie, as if trying to find even the slightest hesitation or insincerity in his eyes, but she saw only openness and a determination to achieve his goals at all costs. She sighed deeply, a sigh filled with helplessness, relief, and a touch of lightness as if she had let go of a heavy burden.
"So be it..." she seemed to shed a thousand-pound burden at once, her shoulders slightly relaxing, "Since this is the Heavenly Mandate, and the great trend is difficult to reverse, and you have given me a reason I cannot refuse... In this case, I shall agree with you."
But she immediately straightened her body again, her gaze becoming sharp: "However, I have a condition you must agree to before I can finally nod and order allegiance."
"Please tell me."
