Su Tang's face was numb, devoid of any expression, as she stiffly nodded in agreement.
Gaiyin tightly adhered his hands to the Transparent Barrier, sensing it minutely, trying to find something different about it.

They had been here for nearly an hour, without any gains.

When they returned to their resting area, a white sparrow came seeking them, carrying Xuan Shui.
