In the following days, Chen Chen felt lost and confused. Whenever he thought of Pei Linyu's heroic sacrifice, his heart was filled with turmoil.
He even wished he could die with him, but unfortunately, he couldn't die now, because he was the only one left from the Seeking Truth Lineage in the Immortal City.
Before Pei Linyu's action, he informed Chen Chen about the upcoming reinforcements. So now, it was Chen Chen's responsibility to connect with them when they arrived.
Pei Linyu and the others couldn't die in vain. Chen Chen had to make the Daoist friends in the reinforcements understand what had happened. Therefore, he absolutely couldn't die, at least not before meeting the reinforcements.
So, despite his grief, he had to keep on living. Thankfully, the Zhou family didn't bother him nor tried to drive him away, which he considered a significant improvement in their relationship.
