"Buzz!"
```
The intense vibration of his phone shocked Julius Reed awake from deep sleep.
He opened his eyes, feeling somewhat exhausted.
Sure enough, after the loss of life force, even an immortal seemed a bit worse for wear.
For others, such a significant loss of life force could likely have killed them on the spot.
"Hisss..."
Julius propped himself up on the bed and slowly stood.
His back ached and his waist was sore.
His limbs felt extremely heavy.
He turned around and quietly walked to another bedroom.
The door was tightly shut.
There was no one inside.
The covers were laid over the pillows.
The bedsheets had already lost any warmth.
It looked as if Night Fairy had left long ago.
"That was close!"
Thinking about how he had just been asleep, Julius shrugged his shoulders and took out his phone.
On it was a text message from an unfamiliar number.
And it was this message that had woken him up.
