Bai Ye shook her head and denied it decisively. She was indeed a little stubborn and said firmly, "If it weren't for me, Zhu Qi Niang wouldn't have killed them!"
Hearing this, Bai Zhan responded more decisively, "No, if it was just because of you, then she would only capture them and not kill them."
"Moreover, once the ancient taboo is lifted, even without you and Jiuchong as the trigger, the forces in the south of Taiyin will definitely take the opportunity to annex Taiyin's north."
"But it is precisely because of you that all the forces in the south of Taiyin will not embarrass the Tianxuan Dynasty for your sake, so the entire dynasty, including your relatives and friends, can survive."
Bai Ye: “…”
She actually knew all this, but although her personality seemed cold, she would always subconsciously keep those who were good to her in mind, and would unconsciously blame her for any accidents that happened to them.
"Ye'er, you have a sense of responsibility that is no less than that of a man, which is not bad, but don't take on too much responsibility. You have done a good job. At least if it weren't for you, our Prajna Village would not be so strong, and the physiques of the four Tianxuan elders would not be so good."
"But if I don't make them better, maybe they will be fine if they do nothing." Bai Ye still felt that he was wrong.
"Is it possible? Do you think that given the temperaments of the four elders, they would just stand by and watch even if their cultivation is weak?" Bai Zhan asked back, and he answered himself affirmatively, "It's impossible. The personalities of these four guys are destined to make them stand up without hesitation when facing the 'invasion'."
Although Bai Zhan had never had direct contact with the four elders, he had actually cooperated with them once in his early years. When the evil dragon of the Beiming Sea attacked, these four relatively young guys had already fought back against it without hesitation when their cultivation was no longer enough to resist.
If he hadn't intervened, the four old men would have died long ago. So when he knew that the four old men were Bai Ye's masters and were very kind to her, he could guess that the four old men were actually repaying their kindness.
"They are sentimental people. Such an ending does not cause them too many regrets. Do you understand?" Bai Zhan concluded with a sigh.
“…” Bai Ye was speechless for a moment. Although she knew that Bai Zhan was trying to comfort her, she had to admit that what the old man said was right.
"If I can make them stronger, maybe they can hold on until I come back." Bai Ye still felt uncomfortable.
Bai Zhan: "..." Well, he couldn't comfort his little granddaughter. Why was she so stubborn? He had already said that it had nothing to do with her, but she still insisted on taking the responsibility. It was really...
"But don't worry, Grandpa. I think clearly that nothing can be perfect." Bai Ye said with emotion, while reaching out to hug the tombstones of the four elders and the old mayor one by one.
"The dead cannot be resurrected. I should look forward, I understand." After Bai Ye hugged Mr. Huang's tombstone, a tear fell without warning, but it was only one tear.
Bai Ye's mood gradually recovered. He looked at Bai Zhan and said, "Let's go. Grandpa, accompany me to the small courtyard where I used to stay with the four elders."
"Let's go." Bai Zhan did not stop her, even though he knew Bai Ye would be saddened by the scene, but if she didn't vent her sadness, it would be detrimental to her future cultivation, so he would not let her suppress it.
After the two of them had only taken a few steps, Bai Ye was able to sense—
