"Why not leave?"
The Chaos Ship asked.
"Why do you always want to leave?" Shen Ye retorted.
"Don't mind me—I'm learning from you—after all, you've survived this long, and I once thought, if I were you, I'd probably be dead already," the Chaos Ship replied.
Shen Ye said no more.
He simply raised his sword, spread out black sword shadows, resonating with the pervasive Sword Rain.
Buzz—Buzz—
The sound of swords echoed in all directions.
From a distance.
Shen Ye looked as if he held a Black Umbrella, shielding against the torrential Sword Rain.
The entire world began to crumble.
Yet the ground where Shen Ye stood remained intact.
Only then did he relax and say:
"Staying here is safe."
"So—"
"It doesn't matter who that person is, or where he wants to take me."
"I will stay here until I'm sure it's safe outside."
His voice faded.
Two lines of dim text appeared again:
"You have entered the 24th hour."
"Survive for 24 hours to complete the first task of the sequence."
