Capítulo 42: Chapter 42

"...Li Weize?"

Harbouring a sliver of hope, Su Junxin leaned into the tank, whispering his name.

However, he remained motionless inside, offering no response.

Overwhelmed, Su Junxin felt faint.

Turning away, she slowly squatted down, burying her face in her palms, taking deep, deliberate breaths.

Calm down, calm down...

Suddenly—

"Huh..."

A gasping sound startled her, causing her to whip her head around in shock.

Li Weize was staring at the ceiling, deep green light sparkling in his pupils. His eyebrows were furrowed in pain, his hand clutched to his chest as he gasped for breath, seemingly in great agony.

But to Su Junxin, it was the sight of sheer relief. Tears welled up in her eyes.

"Li Weize, you're not dead!"

No sooner had the words left her mouth, a gale-force burst of energy hit her.

Caught off guard, Su Junxin stumbled backward, arms raised to protect her head.

The blast lasted for nearly three minutes before subsiding.
