658 Awakening

As Gu Shenwei fell into the roaring flame and awakened from the icy chill, he opened his eyes. The coldness from the inside to the outside was similar to the symptoms of Qi deviation but without the stinging pain.

In his ear came Old Man Mu's boastful voice. "You should all thank me. If I hadn't rushed in at the nick of time, you'd all have gone home and cried with a handful of cremated remains."

Then he really heard a faint cry.

He sat up and felt a burning pain which even overshadowed the chill in his body. He looked down and saw the thick bandage on his bare left chest — another scar on his body.

"Where's she?" This was the first and foremost concern of Gu Shenwei.
