"Between us, there's no need for thanks. I've not been by your side before, but in the days to come, we'll walk together. As long as I, Liu Baiyi, am Undying, I will protect you, Ye Xuan."
Liu Baiyi spoke forcefully, that peerless smile on his white-clothed visage etched into Ye Xuan's mind.
"Alright, no matter what the future holds, as long as I, Ye Xuan, live, anyone who dares to harm you, Liu Baiyi, will first have to step over my corpse." Ye Xuan declared solemnly.
"Hahaha."
The two looked at each other and laughed, everything remaining unspoken, only that truest feeling blossoming within their hearts.
"Brother Ye, although this array according to my design can shield you from the Heavenly Dao Nine Tribulations Thunder and Mysterious Fire, it's not foolproof. After all, I haven't witnessed the Heavenly Dao Nine Tribulations myself, how powerful it is remains unknown to us, so you must be prepared for anything." Liu Baiyi cautioned in a deep voice.
