Li Lin embraced Aoxue for a moment, feeling the surging spiritual power within her. Her strength seemed to have improved once again, and her genuine emotions deeply stirred his heart.
Although Aoxue was merely a top-tier puppet, she was becoming increasingly indistinguishable from a true Cultivator, both in emotion and in physical form. Anyone unaware of the truth would never have imagined she was a puppet.
When Aoxue's emotions calmed slightly, he gently pushed her away, looking intently into her eyes. "Aoxue," he said, "now that you have been reborn, the challenges we face ahead will be even more severe. We are currently in the Holy Alliance camp, a place of undercurrents and hidden dangers. I have been posing as Qi Huan, but that deception will inevitably come to light sooner or later. To avoid drawing unwanted attention, you will play the role of Qi Huan from now on."
