บท 230: Impending Death (2)

It wouldn't be that easy. Li Yun was aware of this. Even a powerful, high-ranking demon like the fox spirit wouldn't be able to remove the black magic spell on Su Daji without spending a considerable amount of energy. 

Sighing to himself, he bid goodbye and promised to return as soon as possible.

Su Daji resumed her life, pushing the thoughts about the curse's aftereffects out of her mind. She was afraid of what could happen to her, but she could only put on a brave mask and pretend that she was alright, for the people around her not to worry. 

The days went by too slowly for her liking as she waited for Li Yun's return. Every day that he didn't come to see her felt too long for Su Daji. Her anxiousness remained even when Mu Yue was by her side. 

"Calm down. Your anxiety is filling my senses." Mu Yue scowled as she glanced at Su Daji, who was trying to preoccupy her mind by reading a book inside her quarters.
