"Xi Lu!"
In pain, Star let out a hoarse cry, his eyes quickly closing shut.
He could no longer see the stars and moonlight outlining the mountain road, no longer could he rely on his own night vision to roam freely in the darkness.
The closed eyelids shielded his purple crystal-like eyes, blocking all the light from the outside world.
Thus, pure darkness descended.
In a moment, Star felt as though he had lost his way. Coupled with the tearing pain all around him, his movement became uncertain.
Could he continue to move forward?
Would he stumble?
Just then, a voice came, resolute, breaking through his hesitation.
"Don't be afraid, charge forward!"
"I'll guide you!"
It was Xu Ran's voice!
Slowly, Star's brows relaxed, his expression easing.
Bearing the pervasive pain, he once again moved his sturdy hooves, charging ahead without a second thought.
