Lu Sangjiu desperately clung to Xie Ningyuan, but she still couldn't resist the suction from the small world's entrance.
Despite their combined efforts, they couldn't overcome the power of a small world, and soon, half of Xie Ningyuan's body had been pulled inside.
At this point, Xie Ningyuan was still unaware that Lu Sangjiu's earlier claim—that the realm could only accommodate one person—was a lie. From his perspective, if he entered, the small world would almost certainly collapse, putting everyone inside in mortal danger!
He knew he couldn't escape, so he said to Lu Sangjiu without hesitation, "Let go!"
Well... this was a rather major misunderstanding.
In Xie Ningyuan's eyes, this was a moment of life-and-death parting. To Lu Sangjiu, however, it was simply about not letting Xie Ningyuan be alone with Ye Zhiyao.
So, when Xie Ningyuan selflessly cried "Let go!", Lu Sangjiu completely failed to grasp the weight of his words.
