"Ugh…"
A weak groan escaped Mu Chen's mouth. His vision was blurry for a moment, but then his surroundings swam into focus. A sharp pain flared in his chest. As he took in the environment, he realized the place was completely unfamiliar.
"Master, Master."
After he called out twice in his mind, the Profound Old Ghost's slyly charming voice replied, "My dear disciple."
"Phew."
Hearing the Profound Old Ghost's voice, Mu Chen heaved a sigh of relief. "Looks like I'm still alive. Master, where is this?"
"This is still the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion. A young lady named Qin Wu saved you. While you were unconscious these past few days, she took meticulous care of you." The Profound Old Ghost's voice held a teasing, peculiar tone.
"Qin Wu?" Mu Chen was bewildered. It wasn't the first time he had heard that name. "Why would she save me?"
