Zhou Bai suddenly turned his head, but his body didn't move; instead, he cocked his ear to listen to the footsteps coming from outside.
In the pitch-dark and silent dormitory building, even the slightest noise could travel far, sounding incredibly clear.
At this moment, the footsteps from outside were just as clear. As they got closer and closer, Zhou Bai tensed his body, the power of his Primordial Spirit spreading out layer upon layer from his sea of consciousness, enveloping his body.
Just as the footsteps neared the door to the room, they suddenly stopped.
Zhou Bai held his breath, thoughts flashing through his mind like lightning.
'Did they discover me?'
'Who could it be, coming here so late?'
'What to do? Should I continue waiting?'
As Zhou Bai was internally conflicted, a figure suddenly dashed past the doorway.
Almost at the instant the figure emerged, Christina let out a scream, and pink Sword Qi slashed out like a bolt of lightning.
Whoosh!
Ah!
