In Wushuang City, in the small courtyard where the Falcon Group resides, Lin Rou once again entered the courtyard, supported by Ms. Li.
Ms. Li appeared full of life, looking well; it's evident that the injuries she had suffered earlier were already healed.
Although Lin Rou still seemed a bit weary, her cheeks had gained a bit of color, and her complexion appeared much better, worlds apart from her previous state when she lay in bed barely breathing, her qi seeming as if it would dissipate at any moment.
However, when Lin Rou tried to circulate her Cultivation Technique or manage Spiritual Energy, she found her Qi Sea feeling empty and achy, clearly indicating that her Qi Sea had not yet recovered.
If such a situation were to persist, she wouldn't be able to continue her cultivation, rendering her akin to a cripple.
Lin Rou felt despair, yet clung to a sliver of hope.
