Countdown to return 42:00:00.
Only a little more than a day remained until the return.
Qing Chen got up early, took a bath, and changed into clean clothes before heading to the "Microscopic World" neighborhood, planning to return to Autumn Leaf Courtyard through the secret passage.
On the way, he sat quietly in the hover car, tending to his injuries. He couldn't move without experiencing pain all over his body.
The gap between D-Class and B-Class could only be fully realized through combat.
If Qing's shadow hadn't made a move, Qing Chen would probably be dead by now.
Qing Chen didn't speak.
But Yi did, "Do you remember, we completed a transaction last night?"
Qing Chen remained expressionless.
He let the hover car drive automatically after boarding and kept silent because he was afraid of arousing Yi's interest in chatting and then steering the conversation to that transaction.
