Huo Yunjie and the others were only meant to be cannon fodder, their deaths were of no concern to Li Zhongnan.
But seeing Huo Yunjie enduring the excruciating pain, looking at him with a determined gaze and shakily reaching out, hoping to be saved, Li Zhongnan's brow furrowed, his heart moved by compassion.
Suddenly he hesitated.
As he wavered, Fairy Ruo Xi waved her hand, a stream of Spiritual Energy enveloped Huo Yunjie, barely sustaining his life, then she turned to Li Zhongnan and said, "Try to save him."
Li Zhongnan shook his head and replied, "Under his current condition, not even gods could save him, and casualties in battle are inevitable. I believe Sect Leader Huo would have been aware of this."
Fairy Ruo Xi's expression turned solemn, her gaze fixed on Huo Yunjie, her delicate brows furrowed. What Li Zhongnan said was not unreasonable, yet it was inevitably sad to watch a generation's Sect Leader fall right before one's eyes.
