"Don't... carry it all by yourself..."
Mu Chen's lips twitched slightly. His dull, lifeless eyes slowly closed, and his entire body went limp, collapsing into Chu Aoqing's arms. This time, he had truly fallen asleep. He was peaceful in his slumber, as if influenced by Chu Aoqing's words. The perpetual frown on his brow finally eased. He was so tired, so very tired...
This was one of the few peaceful nights Mu Chen had experienced since he began his Cultivation. He had originally planned to enter the Eternal Holy Domain and use Meditation to recover his strength, but the toll of the past two months was simply too great. His energy and stamina were completely overloaded. After all... Meditation couldn't fully alleviate mental fatigue.
