Sapling

Recalling that scene, Shu Yao felt the back of his shoulder hurt. It was the injury that he incurred when the demon tried to kill him. Adding to the fact that he also used almost all of his spiritual energy, his cultivation was destroyed. If not for that tiny bit left of his spiritual energy, he wouldn't have been able to call his elders to save him from that terrible demon.

On the other side, Han Yu might be talking to the police, but he is actually secretly watching Shu Yao. Seeing Shu Yao touching his back shoulder, Han Yu's eyes narrowed. Was Shu Yao injured earlier? But the culprit didn't touch him? or was it… Han Yu's eyes narrowed as he looked at Shu Yao's expression which is serious, as if he is thinking about something. And based from their last conversation, Han Yu guessed that Shu Yao might be recalling something in the past.

The first meeting between him and Shu Yao… Han Yu thought as he lowered his gaze.
