After everything that had happened in the last couple of days, Yun Lei felt he needed to relax and rest for a while. Having enhanced and highly focused his senses for so long, fatigue had seeped deep into his bones. Despite having slept for so long the night before, he still felt tired and sluggish.
The late autumn wind was never particularly warm. However, inside the forest, where large amounts of the skylight was blocked by the canopy, the wind was chilly enough to cause one to physically shiver. Because of this, despite the sun being out and in the middle of the sky, Yun Lei found himself sitting next to the fire. There wasn't a particular necessity to do so; he was more than capable of handling the weather. But he did it anyway because the warmth of the crackling fire contributed a lot to his sense of comfort.
