He opened his eyes.
Chen Miao saw the ceiling of the bedroom attached to his office.
Finally back?
The thought had barely formed before Chen Miao felt an intense hunger in his stomach.
After a moment of surprise, Chen Miao took out his phone.
Did I... lie here for twenty-four hours straight?
No, I entered the Mortal World in the early hours. There were about five hours left before yang energy began to rise.
So I actually spent twenty-nine hours in bed?
Enduring the hunger gnawing at his stomach, Chen Miao checked his physical condition.
Aside from hunger and thirst, he needed the toilet.
Thanks to his physical constitution, he found no other discomfort.
Only after finishing his inspection did Chen Miao fetch a bread roll from where he kept his snacks and wash it down with water.
He did not wolf it down. After eating the roll, Chen Miao went to the bathroom, showered, and changed his clothes.
Once he felt thoroughly refreshed, he grabbed more snacks and sat down in the office to eat.
So if I miss the return window when yang energy rises in the Mortal World, my body in reality will sleep for a whole day. As long as nobody disturbs me, it shouldn't be a major problem.
Good thing Shi Manman went to Lin'an City. Otherwise, she might have noticed something wrong when she brought my meal and sent me straight to the hospital. Chen Miao smiled, then thought about the situation in the Mortal World.
That's how reality works. Does the Mortal World work the same way?
If I'm delayed for a day in reality, will I sleep for a day in the Mortal World too?
If so, I should avoid that as much as possible while I'm still at Kong's Shop.
