Chapter 388: Uninvited Author

Eren didn't know when he had fallen asleep the previous night. It felt as though he had barely slept when he opened his eyes in the morning.

The first person he saw upon waking was none other than Xiu Ying, who was using his arm as a pillow, still asleep and looking stunningly beautiful.

Eren remained motionless, simply watching Xiu Ying as she slept peacefully, like a child. He reached out his other hand and gently tucked a stray lock of her hair behind her ear.

"Uhmm." As if reacting to his touch, Xiu Ying made a subconscious noise. She moved closer to Eren, placing her arm over his chest, feeling the warmth coming from his body.

She felt safe in his embrace, a feeling which had been a luxury for someone like her ever since she was born. Even though she was an important figure in the Great Demon Sect, it was still rare to have moments like this.
