Every single word of Wusha's speech pierced the heart like a dagger. If this were someone utterly devoid of conscience who committed every conceivable evil, like Tiancan Tudou, they would simply brush it off as a joke. But Zhong Wuyan's conscience was not yet entirely dead; chivalry and righteousness were engraved in her bones, and she still held fast to the bottom line of a Martial Warrior.

Wusha had asked, "Do you dare?" And the answer was that she did not dare. If things truly were as Wusha claimed, it would inevitably shatter everything Zhong Wuyan had ever done. If the Tage people were indeed the people of Cangyue City, then what? The Three Empires had all been wrong about the truth.
