"You look haggard."
Yan Huihong looked at Chen Ru, who was standing ahead, and said.
Chen Ru indeed appeared much more haggard. It wasn't that her face had aged, but the gleam in her eyes that used to be hers was now gone. Viewing her back, she seemed less sharp than before, somewhat worn down.
"Your concern makes me uncomfortable." Chen Ru's gaze was frosty as she glanced at Yan Huihong behind her.
The place where the two of them stood was the last known location of the train's presence. However, this time it seems the train couldn't return safely and likely ran into some issue midway.
"Can you open that portal?" Yan Huihong asked tentatively, knowing that in today's audience circles, Chen Ru was the most adept in formations. If she couldn't do it, it was unlikely anyone else could.
"If I could open this portal, why wouldn't I escape by myself?" Chen Ru replied.
Indeed, if she possessed the ability to open a gateway to another world, why hadn't Chen Ru left herself?
