The leaves outside rustled in the wind, sounding like boiling water ready to overflow or like the rapid flipping of countless pages in a book, about to reach the end and open a new chapter.
"Clang... Boom!"
A sourness filled Rain's eyes as the breeze swept over them. It felt refreshing. He looked up, and suddenly, a thunderclap rang in his ears, as if a heavy axe split his heart. From the chaos, a sliver of light emerged, gradually growing brighter.
For reasons unknown, Rain instinctively reached for a Qingling Pill, an incredibly precious elixir, and swallowed it. Almost immediately, a cool rush like torrents of water surged through his body, soothing him.
Rain's heart was unusually calm. The more he listened to the thunder, the more peaceful he felt.
