"It's not too late, daozhang. You are here now. This is a new future." Xue Yang hasn't done some of the sins that Xingchen has experienced but he knows that is in his future at some point. He doesn't now how much time there is between what they know. Xue Yang is still young, still capable of change.

"I've done a lot of self reflection since coming back here." Most of it was Xingchen's fault since he had to find out what happens in his future and had to ask Jingyi about the truth that no one seemed to want to tell him.
