Having given himself a day off, Yan Xing soon plunged back into work. Everything he now possessed was built on the foundation of the Eternal Domain, and the surrounding environment still didn't allow him to live a life of nightly revelry. Only when the Eternal Domain no longer feared any challenges could he truly enjoy all that he had.
As for Tong Yitong... Although nominally he provided for her, he felt no real attraction to this girl. To say otherwise would be deceiving himself. In the Magic World, Yan Xing's position meant he dared not trust any woman. The more he interacted with the nobility, the more he could feel himself becoming indifferent. He was always cautious with anyone who approached him. In this extraordinary world, he was truly too weak; he didn't know what dangers lay ahead. He didn't know when death might beckon. This was why Yan Xing chose to accept Tong Yitong's "repayment"—to give himself a harbor where he could briefly dock.
