“Hmph! Don’t think I would let you go because you are getting out now. I will deal with you sooner or later!” Shen Jing gave him a stare. Compared to Lonemoon, she hated this bastard who brought her little sister away even more. She struggled to contain the urge to open the plane by force, took a look at the person beside him, and then said with a deep voice, “The condition of Little Ying right now is due to over-consumption. That’s why she’s in a dormant period. We can only wait for her body to recover by itself.”

“When would it recover, then?” asked Lonemoon, anxiously.

“I don’t know...” Shen Jing frowned. “Since she’s already a Manager, everything in your plane would reflect on her.” Which meant that the plane was her, and she was that plane. Fortunately, the plane was stable, proving that nothing serious would happen to her for the time being. It would only take time for her to recover. “There are huge differences between planes. I’m not there and can’t monitor your data, so I can’t calculate the exact time.”

“You mean... Shen Ying might stay like this?”

“... Perhaps.”

Yi Qing’s hand clenched even tighter. His body trembled. After a long while he looked and asked, “What exactly is the energy that she consumed?”

“This is hard to say.” said Shen Jing. “To begin with, energy exists in different forms in each plane. Her getting hungry when she returned last time was a manifestation of energy loss as well. But in the past the energy consumed could be recovered through food. This time, the consumption was obviously more serious that she couldn’t recover in time. That was why she went into sleep.”

“What about God Power?” continued Yi Qing. “God Power, Immortal Qi, can’t these work too? And... the assistant seal!”

“Chef!” Lonemoon was shocked. “Are you mad?” Shen Ying said that assistant seals could not be canceled. “Nobody knows what would happen after losing the assistant seal.”

“It can work, theoretically...” Shen Jing’s eyes narrowed, as she glanced at the two, then said ironically, “But did you think assistant seals are so easily returned? If it can be taken back so casually, why am I still keeping Kai Tian, this useless thing?”

Useless Kai Tian, “...”

“Besides, you two became assistants due to Little Ying in the first place. Even if you return this power, it would hardly have any effect!” Shen Ying looked at them from the corner of her eyes. “To put it bluntly, you yourselves relied on Little Ying’s power to sustain you. So don’t bother with unnecessary matters.”

She thought about it, and her expression grew even more anxious. She walked to and fro a few times, before saying, “I’ll think of a way to lift the seal on your plane and come over as soon as possible. You two look after Little Ying for me. Otherwise...”

She snorted and raised her hand to click something. The light screen flashed in front of them, and the call was ended directly.

Yi Qing’s eyes darkened. He turned to walk back to Shen Ying’s side and got her up with extreme care. He felt for the assistant seal in his body and drew on his God Power once more.

“Chef!” Lonemoon was shocked, and he grabbed his hand immediately. “Didn’t you hear Shen Jing just now? Even if you canceled the assistant seal, you still won’t wake her up!”

“But, I’ve got to try!” Yi Qing looked back and his look was firm. “I’m here because of Master. If not for her, we might have disappeared together with this plane long ago. I can’t look at her sleeping on like this and do nothing!”

“...”

“Father Niu, I’m not as thoroughly considerate as you are. I only know that should there be any bit of hope, I can’t give up.”

“...”

‘No matter whether it works, even if it could only let Master wake up one second earlier, it’s worth it!”

Lonemoon was stunned. But Yi Qing had already shook off his hand and started to make spells once more.

“Shit!” Lonemoon cursed quietly. He gritted his teeth and pressed his hand once more, “Wait!”

“You-”

“If you try, we may as well try together!” Lonemoon interrupted him directly and sat down cross-legged beside him. He gave the unconscious person a stare. “Holy shit! Holy shit! I must have owed the two of you in my last life that I meet you two burdens!” He’s never done any business with such bad prospects. “Death then, if it must be! Adding me, it’ll be one more seal in any case.”

“I say first!!” Lonemoon thought about it and told him once more. “It’s okay to give it a try, but don’t you be stubborn about it. Stop when I say so. Otherwise not only you yourself will get hurt, you may harm Shen Ying as well.”

Yi Qing nodded. “Hmm.”

“Let’s begin!”

Only then did the two start conjuring seals together. They sensed for the assistant seal within their bodies, and in the next moment, an enormous power immediately filled their whole bodies. Lonemoon breathed in deeply and carefully directed that special power and sent it towards the person in front of him.

He had a vague feeling that something was drawn out of his body and was going to enter Shen Ying’s body. Yet suddenly, a stinging pain was felt in his Divine Perception. That power couldn’t get through at all. Instead, it directly rebounded back at him.

Lonemoon felt a blow in his heart and tasted blood in his mouth. He subconsciously looked at the person beside him, yet found that his complexion was even paler than himself. It seemed that Shen Jing was right. It couldn’t be returned indeed. Just as he was about to withdraw his hand, he suddenly realized that he couldn’t. The assistant power bounced back, but the immortal qi in his body started draining very rapidly, which rushed wildly in Shen Ying’s direction.

What was going on?

“Chef, stop it, quickly!” Lonemoon reminded him, but it was already too late. The immortal qi in his body drained even faster, and in but a short while, he felt an emptiness in his Dantian and a blackness in front of his eyes. He fainted directly.

“Niu...” Yi Qing was anxious, yet in the next instant, he himself fell down with a blackness in front of him.

Both of them sank into darkness.

In the instant that they closed their eyes, they seemed to see something...

——————

They didn’t know how much time had passed before they woke again. But when they did, they sensed vaguely that something was so bright that it was difficult for them to open their eyes. Lonemoon subconsciously moved to cover his eyes, yet realized that he couldn’t move at all. And a sharp pain went through his body. He opened his eyes directly, but a strong light went straight towards him, making him almost dizzy.

“You’re awake?” An extremely cold but somewhat familiar voice was head. After that was several clanging sounds which seemed to be some clicking machines.

Lonemoon looked up, and only then saw the vague reflection not far in front of him. The figure was not tall, and it looked like someone young, sitting cross-legged on an armchair, staring coldly in their direction. He closed his eyes briefly to suppress that sense of dizziness which went over him. Only then did he see that face. Despite the coldness, it was pretty familiar. It seemed a few inches smaller than in his impression.

This was Shen... Jing?!

Before he could react, Chef beside already burst out in excitement. “Master! You’re awake! That’s so great!”

What? This is Shen Ying?

Chef subconsciously tried to move over, yet once his body moved, a wave of pain went over both their bodies. There was also a vague burning scent. Lonemoon was stunned. He looked down.

Holy shit! Who tied both of them up? And they were tied together and hung upside down!

The person on the chair frowned, looking at the two even more coldly. “Who are you? Where is this? What purpose do you have?” As her voice fell, immediately, four or five balls shining with red lights appeared out of thin air all around them. Pitch back gun points on the balls pointed towards the two.

That voice was cold as ice...

“Speak!”

Yi Qing: “...”

Lonemoon, “...”

Huh?

What was happening?
