Five in the morning.
Qing Chen woke up from a chaotic nightmare, in which he dreamt of a brutal battle where Daytime Members and Parent Association Members were dying in droves, and he himself was riddled with brain cancer, with not much time left.
Their battle ultimately ended in failure.
Success eluded them at the final moment.
Upon waking up, Qing Chen saw Yangyang leaning against his bedside, weakly holding his hand, soft and moist.
Qing Chen had a fever, 39 degrees.
This was the first time he had fallen ill since becoming a Transcendent, showing just how much damage he had taken in the battle against Chen Yu.
His spirit, his body, all had fallen to their lowest point, and he could no longer fight.
Yangyang lifted her head: "You're awake. I'll get you some hot water. Drink it and then sleep for a while."
Qing Chen's gaze drifted past her, staring blankly at Jindai Yunlo.
