Han Yi wiped sweat from his forehead.
"…This place… I feel like I can finally breathe a little."
Mu Chen kept scanning ahead, eyes sharp.
"…Enjoy it while it lasts. Rest will come when we find a safe spot, but we can't lose focus yet."
Yue smiled faintly, looking at the water.
"…It's strange… after all we've faced, even a quiet valley feels like an achievement."
Lei Feng nodded, glancing around.
"…Every step matters. We've made it this far, and we keep moving together. That's what counts."
Ling paused near the stream, turning to the group.
"Good. The valley gives us a chance to move safely and find a spot to rest soon. Step by step, stay together, and stay ready. Whatever is ahead, we face it as one."
