Knock. Knock. Knock.
"You are done, right? Your Internal Energy fluctuations have finally calmed down."
The voice that came from the other side of the door was none other than Cheon Jeong. Though it was as cheery as ever, there seemed to be a hint of urgency hidden within.
As Leo and Yeon's eyes met in response, they both swallowed back the words that they had considered saying, it wasn't time for that just yet.
"We will open up in a second."
Although Leo estimated that they had stayed inside for months, their transcendent bodies didn't accumulate any sort of sweat or waste, especially when they consumed no food for the entirety of the seclusion period. So, they didn't need to clean up before emerging.
Just as one would expect from the chamber reserved for the Heavenly Demon, it could only be opened from the inside once the door was closed. Even if the Blade Spirit knew the energy sequence key, she could only wait for them to step out.
Swisshhhhh...
- It took a quite a bit more to sort out what was left, but I'm finally back with a new chapter. I know that's kind of selfish of me to say, but I hope that everyone can jump back into this ride! Enjoy!
