I'll Be Back

Laiana's expression turned awful. 'I would rather not talk about that.'

"Fair enough..." Rean's roundabout method didn't work very well. "So, what do you intend to do now, senior?"

'Nothing,' Laiana calmed down. 'I have been slumbering for way too long to the point my cultivation has fallen to such a state. Showing any signs that I got free would be nothing but suicide in the Werdlem Empire Bubble. I still stay here for the foreseeable future, recovering my energies.'

Rean nodded. "Seems like we are on the same boat. I, too, am trying to recover my cultivation and get out of the Werdlem Empire Bubble. I didn't have any intention to come here in the first place. Well then, senior. Your Bloodline Essence is bound to help my friend over there, so I guess we are even. If there isn't anything else, I will make my way back. Oh, right. I hope you don't mind if my friend keeps your Bloodline Essence."
