The High Priest looked up at the sky with a long sigh, then turned to Ye Huan with a hardened gaze and said, "Ye Huan, you have no idea what a colossal entity the Heaven Prison Organization is. Even if you led everyone on Magma Island, joined forces with Wu Wudi and the four major clans, you still wouldn't be a match for them. So even if I do as you say and temporarily save my life, I'll sooner or later die at the hands of the Heaven Prison Organization. And by then, all my family and clansmen will be eradicated by them. Therefore, you might as well kill me now. Dying now at least preserves the lives of my family and clansmen!"
Ye Huan never expected the High Priest to make such a choice. He frowned and said, "No one will know you betrayed the Heaven Prison Organization, so you don't have to worry that they will kill me, wipe out Magma Island, and then exterminate your entire clan!"
"I know you want to extract my memory, which is why you're reluctant to kill me. But have you thought about this? Once Zhuifeng escapes, she will definitely transmit all the intelligence about you and Magma Island to her superiors, and that includes the fact that I've fallen into your hands. The Heaven Prison Organization keeps a genealogy. If they find my name is still on it, they'll guess I've defected to you—otherwise, you wouldn't have spared my life!" the High Priest said.
