Hundun (25)

The smoke lasted around Yan Ling for a bit before suddenly disappearing.

When it was over, the silver energy around Yan Ling had surged to twice the size that it was before. At the same time, I could feel the pressure that was coming from it, showing that it wasn't just twice as strong.

Taking a deep breath, Yan Ling suddenly compressed that silver energy around her until it was back to the same size as before.

Then with another deep breath, that silver energy disappeared without a trace.

It was only then that Yan Ling opened her eyes.

When she did, I saw that there was what seemed to be a silver glow that was in her eyes as well. But when I looked closely, I saw that there seemed to also be this strange dark shade to the silver glow that was in her eyes.

However, it only appeared for an instant before disappearing without a trace.

If I hadn't looked at it carefully and seen this, I might have even doubted that it existed.
