Night fell quickly, and the stars scattered like dust, the world silent.
Chu Yi meditated in the courtyard of the Bamboo Forest. He found that his Elixir Sea had been particularly active recently; even without consciously urging it, it occasionally emitted a huffing sound.
Accompanying the sound were bouts of hiccups. Needless to say, this meant the Elixir Sea within his body was starting a new cycle of enhancement.
Spiritual Energy was especially abundant in the latter half of the night. Chu Yi continued his cultivation until three or four in the morning when he finally concluded his training.
After standing up and stretching, Chu Yi tiptoed into Xu Yan's room.
The little girl hugged her pillow, sleeping soundly, her rhythmic breathing clearly audible in the air.
In the bright moonlight, tear stains were faintly visible on Xu Yan's face.
