On the highway back to Lan City, a red Beetle was speeding along.
Zhu Fei sat in the passenger seat, eyes slightly closed, pondering the things he would have to do in the future.
His experiences over the past few days had made him acutely aware that with his current cultivation, he would likely struggle to find his footing in this world.
It seemed he would need to quicken the pace of his training.
"Um, Zhu Fei..."
Just as Zhu Fei was considering how to accelerate his training, Qiu Ruoxue, who was driving, suddenly called out to him.
"Mm."
Zhu Fei snapped out of his reverie, slightly surprised, and turned to look at Qiu Ruoxue.
It should be noted that ever since they had left Mr. Qiu's hospital room, Qiu Ruoxue had maintained her silence.
Even when he spoke to her, she would only nod or shake her head simply, without speaking a word.
Zhu Fei was somewhat puzzled by Qiu Ruoxue's previously unusual reaction, but he hadn't thought too much about it.
