Shi Feiyang gazed towards the direction Yili had left, his eyes filled with longing and reluctance.
After a long while, he finally turned and descended the mountain, heading towards his own quarters, his steps steady yet tinged with a faint trace of melancholy.
On the other side, Zhong Renwang dragged the unconscious Xie Zhichuan along, stumbling and staggering until they finally reached a hidden cave.
Inside the cave, it was dark and damp, filled with the stench of decay.
Zhong Renwang threw Xie Zhichuan onto the ground, then took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom, poured out a black pill, and forcibly fed it to Xie Zhichuan. Moments later, Xie Zhichuan slowly regained consciousness. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Zhong Renwang's sinister face.
