"Tan'er, it's alright," Mo Liancheng said softly.
It was only then that Qu Tan'er withdrew her Spiritual Energy and took a deep breath as well.
On her beautiful forehead, a thin layer of sweat was forming.
He lifted his sleeve and gently wiped the sweat from her face, silent and wordless.
Some things no longer needed to be said; understanding each other was enough.
"Chengcheng, I will try harder, so you don't have to worry about me all the time," Qu Tan'er's eyes sparkled as she looked towards the distant mountains, which they had just crossed.
That strike had once again bolstered her confidence.
It feels so good to have strength...
Mo Liancheng, however, closed his eyes and didn't respond.
Suddenly, a clear whistle sounded ahead! Quickly, it was followed by a wave of commotion.
Soon, more than ten well-trained men and women drew their weapons, surrounding a group of five people.
Given their speed, they were undoubtedly the Shadow Guards trained by a major Family.
