"Gege, will you come with me? The world is far too dangerous right now. There are too many threats and vile people. If anyone finds out about you, I'm afraid—"
He Jinyun's voice trembled with fear and worry.
The ornate silver mask returned to his face, yet it did little to conceal the anxiety Sian could sense coming from him.
About an hour earlier, after Sian had attempted to use his powers to heal He Jinyun, silence had settled over the room. As the center of the storm, Sian took it upon himself to explain things to Lan Qisheng and Jiao Liangchen, the only two present who were still in the dark.
Of course, Sian wasn't foolish enough to tell them the full truth—that he had transmigrated from another world and that He Jinyun came from the same place.
Even if it weren't impossible to believe, a deep instinct within Sian warned him to keep it secret.
A voice within whispered that revealing this truth would be dangerous.
He had always trusted his instincts.
