Shu Ci did not visit the Mohe Palace where he lived. He had no interest in asserting his dominance and status over such trivial matters.
Moreover, exposing himself as the bearer of the Mohe was truly an act of desperation. The identity of Shouhe, which the demons frenziedly revered, was more of a burden to him than anything else.
Returning to his chamber, Baili An could no longer sustain his forced alertness and collapsed onto his bed, sinking into a deep sleep.
In the battle with Shu Ci, his strength had already been exhausted. The Blood Energy and Spiritual Power stored within the Corpse Pearl and the nodes of Spiritual Power had already been squandered.
Once the Blood Energy within the corpse demon's body was depleted and could not be replenished with fresh blood, it would generally crumble and rot away, like decaying wood.
But Baili An was different; as a direct Bloodline descendant of Jiang Chen, he could replenish his Blood Energy by entering a state of hibernation.
