"Stop bothering me, let me rest a bit more..."

"Mmm..."

Hearing Yu Xiaogang's voice, Liu Erlong couldn't help but knit her brows. She opened her eyes with great difficulty, her expression somewhat dazed.

"Erlong?"

Yu Xiaogang, also clutching his aching head, looked at the dazed Liu Erlong and couldn't help but call out.

It took a long while for Liu Erlong to snap out of it; as if just booting up, a look finally appeared on her face.

Just as weariness surfaced on her face, she collapsed back onto the bed with a heavy thud, her low voice filled with exhaustion, "Xiaogang, I..."

"I'm a bit tired..."

"Don't... make any noise..."

"Let, let me sleep a while longer..."

"Erlong, last night... did I get drunk and throw up? Why does everything feel so strange... are, are you alright?"

"You still have the nerve to ask... it's all because of you last night..."

After muttering a few unintelligible words, Liu Erlong's clearly fatigued voice sounded again, "...My whole body is sore now... stop bothering me, let me rest some more..."

As she spoke, she drifted back into a deep sleep, as if she were truly exhausted to the point of not having the strength to say another word.

Seeing this, a wave of guilt surged into Yu Xiaogang's heart.

He couldn't remember anything from last night at all.

But hearing her say this, it must have been that he had lost control while drunk and worn her out completely.

Seeing the mess scattered all over the floor, Yu Xiaogang felt even worse.

"I'm sorry, Erlong... this, this is all my fault..."

Murmuring to himself, Yu Xiaogang carefully climbed out of bed. After washing up, the strange taste in his mouth finally vanished.

He went out of the wooden cabin to take a look, but Flender was nowhere to be seen. He figured he must have left without saying goodbye so as not to disturb them.

With this thought in mind, Yu Xiaogang didn't dwell on it further and began to clean up.

He busied himself for the entire morning.

The whole cabin was as clean as a whistle, and Yu Xiaogang even felt the air had become much fresher.

Afterward.

Yu Xiaogang tied on an apron and cooked a few of Liu Erlong's favorite dishes, and soon the sweet aroma of food wafted through the air.

By the time Liu Erlong woke up, the sky had already begun to darken.

She stretched lazily and sat up from the bed. Her nightgown slipped off her shoulder, revealing a large patch of bruising that made her wince in pain, "Sss... seriously..."

She remembered that 'Xiaogang' had been unusually fierce last night, like an ox; he had nearly rattled her bones until they fell apart...

However.

Before she could fully collect her thoughts, she heard the sound of hurried footsteps outside, followed immediately by the sound of a heated argument.

"What's going on?"

Perhaps due to ringing in her ears or something else, Liu Erlong couldn't quite make out the argument outside.

She stumbled, leaning against the wall, and managed to walk to the door. She raised her head to look, and her half-closed eyes widened instantly, all sleepiness vanishing!

"Dad...?"

"How... are you here?"

The person who had arrived was none other than Yu Luomian, along with several members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!

"You're saying that you were attacked midway?"

"And Fan'er went missing?"

After a whole afternoon of travel, the wedding procession finally arrived at the Seven Kill Sect.

The Third Elder immediately reported the events on the road to Chen Jianjun, whose eyes narrowed instantly.

In that split second!

The Third Elder felt a chill coming from all directions, cold and biting.

"Yes, Supreme Sect Master..."

"Moreover, after the Sect Master returned, he was in a daze and fell straight to sleep..."
