Night had deepened.
After offering the emperor a rare few words of comfort, Jiang Yuechu returned wearily to her chambers.
She casually shut the door without lighting a lamp.
She walked straight to the brocade-covered couch and sat cross-legged.
The battle at Five Immortals Mountain had seemed an easy victory.
In truth, only she knew how much Dao cultivation she had poured into that display.
Two hundred thousand years of Dao cultivation for a single instant of invincibility.
Was it worth it?

But now...
As Jiang Yuechu looked at those names, her brows gradually drew together.
As her realm rose, the cost in Dao cultivation snowballed, growing ever larger.
