Lu Xinyi wasn't sure if she was hallucinating because of her fever or not. She could barely remember seeing her husband's face and talking to him before she entered a deep sleep. She surrendered to slumber to let her body recuperate. She didn't know that after Shen Yi found her, she entered the same dream that was plaguing her since she was young.
In her dream, a woman was wearing white clothes decorated with plum blossoms—the same hanfu she'd seen in the cave. On her left shoulder, blood started to seep from her wound. She was sitting on top of a cliff, looking over the landscapes below her. She was severely injured from her last battle with another fox spirit.
