The room filled with people in an instant.
Xu Ran lay in bed, with Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er, and Xue Wu gathered around him. Tears dripped from their eyes as they looked at the horrifying wounds on his body. Hearing about the dangers he had faced during the battle frightened them beyond measure as they imagined themselves there.
