The Merit Golden Light that seeped into Xuan Chu's body calmed him down from his pain and despair.
Yun Ran let out a sigh of relief, grateful she hadn't been pulled into the endless abyss by the sacrificed life.
That was close; she nearly died of fright.
If others, especially her former 'little buddies,' found out, they'd laugh their heads off.
Clearly, Xuan Chu wouldn't emerge from empathy so soon, so Yun Ran stayed by his side as a protector, lest he accidentally met his end.
Time ticked away, and as it gradually became brighter, Yun Ran had already switched through eighty-one sitting positions.
The bad news was that Xuan Chu hadn't awakened from empathy yet, but the good news was he wasn't in any danger.
Yun Ran stretched lazily, switched to a comfortable sitting position, then fished out a biscuit from her bag and started munching away.
It was at this moment that Xuan Chu, without any sign, opened his eyes.
"Yo, you're awake~"
