Tang Lietian forced himself to endure the tempting aroma of roasted meat, swallowing his saliva furiously, and turned his head away from Chu Yang, Chi Yurou, and Ma Xiaoya.
Chu Yang, Chi Yurou, and Ma Xiaoya had their fill of the meal, especially Chi Yurou and Ma Xiaoya, who had been hungry for the entire day and cleaned the bones thoroughly.
"You two go to sleep!"
"With me here, Tang Lietian won't dare to lay a finger on you," Chu Yang said to Chi Yurou and Ma Xiaoya.
Chi Yurou and Ma Xiaoya nodded, cuddled up behind Chu Yang, and fell asleep against the stone wall.
Chu Yang sat cross-legged beside the fire, meditating on the 'Mortal Cultivating Immortal Technique,' while keeping an eye on every move Tang Lietian made, ready to detect any sign of movement from him instantly.
The darkness of night receded, and the horizon began to brighten as dawn approached with a hint of morning glow.
Swoosh!
