Li Qi patted his shoulder and said with satisfaction,
"Master, I heard from my fellow disciple that you once were a formidable figure who had 'leaped over the Dragon Gate'. So why did you still grow old?" Zhu Shanying asked, puzzled.
Li Qi laughed and said lightly, "The 'dragon' I raised was killed by someone, so my consciousness could not soak into the body anymore. Naturally, I could no longer maintain the 'Breakthrough' state and constantly adjust my body, so aging became inevitable."
Zhu Shanying nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.
...
By the time Xue Jing returned to his residential area, it was already past midnight.
He touched the wound on his body and found the healing speed was so fast it was almost absurd; the skin that had been torn open was already growing a thin layer of flesh.
At this rate, he estimated it would heal in two or three days.
He greeted the security guard, entered the neighborhood, and got home.
