A faint glimmer appeared in the darkness, and the chill rapidly receded...
Ren Ye slowly opened his eyes and found himself lying stark naked in bed, aching all over.
He turned his head to survey his surroundings. This was probably a room in the Qingliang Prefecture Prefectural Yamen. No one else was around.
Ren Ye slowly sat up, holding his head as he carefully recalled what had happened. He realized he seemed to have slept another five full days, because he had no new memories since leaving the gate that day.
If I slept for five days, who took my clothes off?
Lian'er again?
Sigh, she really was hungry. She never missed a chance to feast on me.
Ren Ye shook his head. Just as he was about to brace himself against the bed and get up, a notification from the Star Gate rang in his ears.
