"To help us subdue the Spiritual Fire, Master Priest took such a risk, regardless of the heavy damage to his Primordial Energy. I, Zhou Jilin, am infinitely grateful. From now on, whatever Master Priest commands, I, Zhou Jilin, will have no second thoughts." Zhou Jilin was so moved that his voice choked with emotion, an elder of several hundred years nearly broke into tears.
Wen Gaoren and Zhou Jilin were momentarily stunned upon hearing this, their minds quickly regained clarity: what risk, what heavy damage to Primordial Energy—they just saw clearly, Lady Mu was so at ease she almost nodded off, where was it all as severe as they described?
Turning their heads for a look, both were instantly dumbfounded.
They saw Lady Mu's face looking haggard, her eyes vacant, her whole body soaked as if drenched. Her small hands were trembling like a chicken's claw in a spasm, clearly showing signs of significant loss of Primordial Energy and even serious injury.
