Gu Chaoyan administered the nourishment to him and anxiously awaited Zhou Huaijin's awakening.
Initially, hope filled Gu Chaoyan's eyes, expecting her beloved Huaijin to revive any moment.
But moments turned into minutes on Dragon Vein Mountain.
An hour passed.
Pei Yueling cast a glance at the motionless Gu Chaoyan and then at the silent sorcerer, feeling bewildered.
As an outsider, she was acutely aware that he wouldn't awaken. The notion was implausible. Her earlier assumption had been correct. Despite proceeding in this manner, the outcome remained unchanged.
In a way, she felt somewhat relieved.
Upon presenting her spiritual root, she discerned that her life was spared. Gu Chaoyan wasn't irrational, and she wouldn't demand her life again.
Consequently, she had the leisure to signal the sorcerer, advising him to intervene. This ongoing situation was evidently unsustainable.
