Ning Ze, with weak legs unable to support him, looked pale and breathless, and was speechless upon hearing the two leisurely conversing.
Ning Yao looked just as pale and speechless. She was stronger than Ning Ze, but only slightly.
Su Rong and Feng Ling, having rested enough, continued leading the pair to climb. Half a unit of time later, they finally reached the top of the cliff.
Untying the ropes around their bodies, the siblings from the Ning Family collapsed to the ground in unison.
Su Rong reached into his pocket and pulled out a bottle, pouring out a pill and handed it to Ning Yao. "Eat this," he said.
Ning Yao didn't question him. At this point, she didn't think Su Rong would harm her. If he had intended to, he could have simply abandoned them instead of painstakingly assisting them in climbing the steep cliff. Therefore, she opened her mouth and swallowed the pill.
Ning Ze waited for a while but saw no pill offered to him. He asked, "What about me?"
