Shen Wenyan gently wiped away her tears with a faint smile, slowly pulling the mother and daughter into his embrace, saying, "Don't be sad. In this life, I've let down my parents, and I've let down Zhao Xuan and Chongxuan, those brothers."
"This time, I must not let down Senior Bai Ze or the two of you."
"For the rest of my days, I promise to safely bring you both to the Shen Family, and to let Li'Er grow up happily."
He looked down at Shen Li, who wasn't crying or fussing, her big eyes filled with curiosity, and teased the little girl's soft cheeks with a smile.
"Let's go home."
Helping Hu Mei'Er to her feet, Shen Wenyan spoke with a smile.
He had just deceived Hu Mei'Er.
If he were only to forcibly absorb the remaining power of the Female Essence Wisdom Pearl, with his current level of Divine Spirit and Life Force, he could indeed last another year.
