Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 5400 (Five Thousand Four Hundred) Later
The Gray Hand Man asked, "Did you understand what he meant at that time?"

"Not entirely," the man replied.

The Gray Hand asked again, "Did you ask him?"

“I didn’t dare to ask.” The man said, “But he asked me.”

"What do you want to ask?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"He asked me... Do you know why when I asked him what he regretted, he thought that my self-reflection was just superficial?" said the man.

"Did you answer?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

“I answered.” The man said, “I said… I don’t know.”

The Gray Hand asked, "How did he react?"

"He seems very angry." The man said, "Tell me... If I hadn't been introspective on the surface, I wouldn't have known what I regretted."

"Do you think what he said makes sense?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I didn't know what was going on at the time." The man said, "I didn't think too much about whether what he said made sense."

The Gray Hand asked again, "Didn't you say anything else?"

"I did. I told him... I just didn't know what he was asking about at that moment." said the man.

The Gray Hand said, "You really don't know?"

The man said, "When I said this... I almost knew it."

The Gray Hand Man said, "Then did you quickly tell him what you thought of?"

"Before I even had the chance to tell him, he...told me... he already knew so clearly what I had experienced before, and yet I still had to ask." said the man.

The Gray Hand asked, "Is what you thought of before the same as what he said?"

"Yes." The man said, "It's exactly the same thing. I just...thought of it a little late."

The Gray Hand said, "Did you speak at this time?"

The man said, "I still didn't say it. I wanted to, but... seeing how angry he looked, I didn't dare to say it."

"What about him?" the Gray Hands asked. "He told me, he has said so much, but I still don't speak out quickly, which shows that I just can't think of it." The man said.

"What do you do now?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I quickly told him...it's not like that." said the man.

"Where's he?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"He asked me what it was like," the man said.

The Gray Hand asked, "Did you answer?"

"I said... it's not what he thought." The man said, "I said that when I said I just didn't know what he was asking about, I had almost thought of it."

The Gray Hand asked, "He believed it?"

"He doesn't seem to believe it. He asked me why I didn't tell him when I clearly thought of it." said the man.

"Did you answer him?" asked the Gray Hand.

"I said... at that time... seeing the atmosphere... I didn't dare to say it out loud." said the man.

The Gray Hand Man asked, "Does he believe it now?"

"I don't think I believe it." The man said, "He said... I even dared to ask if I regretted something, so what else could I not dare to ask?"

The Gray Hand said, "Have you explained?"

"I... don't know how to explain it." The man said, "I just told him... it's different."

"What happened next?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"He asked me why I was different," the man said.

"Did you answer?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

The man said, "I said... the situation was different at that time, but... there's nothing else."
