Chapter 424: Shocking Appearance, Yuan Xi and Li Xingpan

Lu Bu'er awoke from his sleep with a start, as if from a nightmare, his head drenched in sweat.

The pain that had long been absent once again assaulted him, a sensation like steel needles piercing his brain nerves made him wish for death. It was as though he had reverted to that frail youth tormented by the agony of cancer in his school dormitory, his heart tightly entwined with panic and unease, like a demon that followed him like a shadow.

"Awake?"

Lianhua, seeing him awake, breathed a sigh of relief. At the moment, she was at his bedside, wiping the sweat from his forehead with a towel dipped in warm water. After all, with the Divine Ashes Technique protecting him, he didn't have to fear the Corruption Virus in the water.
