Separated by a heavy city gate.
Yan Wanqing knelt on the ground, seeing blood seeping from inside the city to the outside of the gate.
She could even see how that vicious group was stabbing Piji's body relentlessly to vent their anger.
There was nothing she could do.
At this moment...
Agony and self-reproach surged in her heart; she stared fixedly at the lion-shaped door knocker on the city gate: "...just how powerful must one become to protect all those one wishes to protect?"
She had come to the Northern Border solely to save Huai Yu.
But why, in the end, had Huai Yu still died...
Was it truly because she was too arrogant?
Tears pooled in her eyes, and she fiercely rose from the ground, pushing hard against the city gate.
She wasn't willing to accept this.
Xiao Pingfeng held her tightly from behind: "...Wanwan, it's not your fault."
"This isn't your fault; you did everything you could."
