Mu Bailing woke up and slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was a young man sitting nearby with his eyes closed.
She sat up and looked around, realizing she was inside the cave.
A confused expression appeared on her face as her memories were blurry. When they started to clear up, her expression changed drastically.
She remembered drowning in the pond filled with dark water contaminated by dense Death Energy. The Death Energy had invaded her body and devoured her life force, and it had also invaded Emrys's body. Most importantly, Emrys had been heavily injured and unconscious at that time.
But now, Emrys was sitting not far from her and appeared to be fine. As for herself, although all her injuries were healed and no traces of Death Energy could be found inside her body, she felt incredibly weak. Looking at her hands and the rest of her body, she could tell she had aged a lot.
