Xiao Bai let out a scream and suddenly sat up in bed.
The girl panted heavily, drenched in sweat.
"That dream just now..."
At that moment, she could no longer remember what she had dreamed about.

Luo Yan gently held her face. "It's all right. Don't you still have me?"
"So even if you don't advance to the Heavenly Palace Realm, it's fine. Don't rush. Just cultivate at your own pace."
"Haste makes waste. You have to sever your inner demons when breaking through realms. If you're too anxious and your mind is unsettled, breaking through will be very dangerous."
Listening to Luo Yan share his experience, Xiao Bai could only nod, though her thoughts had drifted back to that nightmare.
What exactly did I dream about?
It felt so terrifying...
