Lin Qiao waited until Xie Dong went ashore, then relaxed her grip on the energy sphere and went ashore as well.
By the time she came out, Xie Dong had put his clothes on. He stayed a couple meters away from the lake and waited for Lin Qiao. Soon, Lin Qiao came out of the water while being wrapped in dark mist. As she put her clothes on, the dark mist drilled into her palm.
"How's it going? Can you speak now?" Lin Qiao adjusted her clothes, then walked up and asked Xie Dong, who had turned around to avoid looking at her naked body.
Xie Dong turned back and looked at Lin Qiao as he slightly opened his mouth. "Yes…" His throat moved slightly, and then a voice escaped his mouth. His voice was dry and hoarse, not like the voice of a healthy man. However, his pronunciation was clear enough. Speaking was no longer a question for him.
"Congratulations!" Lin Qiao smilingly nodded at him.
