Ling'er had been lying there for three days and three nights. Aside from when Dao Lord Taichu went out to find food, he did not dare leave her side for even a moment.
He feared that she would suddenly wake up and not see him, feared that she would be captured again, feared that the fire by her side would go out...
Dao Lord Taichu sat beside Ling'er with his head lowered. He looked utterly haggard, and there was not a trace of color in his lips.
Dao Lord Taichu had suffered injuries far too severe in the battle a few days ago; they could not heal in a short time. He had to slowly nurse himself back to health with a great number of pills. Although his injuries had improved somewhat compared to a few days ago, he was still quite weak.
