It seemed he had been asleep for a long while, but when he opened his eyes, he found that not much time had passed. In fact, everything he had just endured might have passed in the blink of an eye. He didn’t know if it was because the spell had been succe ssfully broken, but when he woke, he found he was lying on the ground without a single injury. That savage wound, that blood and gore—they were nothing more than a nightmare. They had left not a trace on his body. Despite himself, Mo Ran was both surprised and delighted. Then he looked over to Shi Mei. He didn’t know when Shi Mei had lost consciousness, but he was also free from harm. Was it possible that, after Shi Mei passed the Exalted Gouchen’s trial, Gouchen had not only broken the illusion, but had healed the wounds they had received within it? Hm… Although when Mo Ran thought about it, it wasn’t like Gouchen the Exalted wanted to hurt them, just test them. So this made sense. All the same, it didn’t feel real to Mo Ran, and he still felt like he’d barely escaped with his life. Among the four of them, he was the first to wake. The next to rise was Shi Mei. At the sight of Shi Mei’s lashes slowly fluttering open, Mo Ran was overjoyed. “Shi Mei!” he exclaimed eagerly. “We’re all right! Quite all right! Quick, look at me!” Within Shi Mei’s gaze there was, at first, a flash of confusion. Then he gradually became more lucid, and his eyes abruptly widened. “A-Ran?! You—” Before he could finish, Mo Ran wrapped him in a tight embrace. Shi Mei couldn’t help but be taken aback, but he gently patted Mo Ran’s shoulder and said hesitantly, “What’s with you?” “I’m sorry that I made you suffer so.” Shi Mei was perplexed. “Well, it wasn’t really anything. I just had a dream, that’s all.” “But the pain was real!” Mo Ran protested. “What pain?” Shi Mei asked. Just then, Xue Meng also woke. There was no telling what dreams he’d had, but as he shot up, he yelled, “Insolent ruffian! How dare you feel me up!” At the sight of him rising, Shi Mei walked over. “Young master.” “Huh… You? Why are you here?” Xue Meng apparently thought he was still dreaming. Mo Ran was in a great mood, and consequently his attitude toward Xue Meng was rather soft. He smiled as he gave an account of the events that had just unfolded. Only then did reality dawn on Xue Meng. “So it was a dream… And here I thought…” In order to hide his awkwardness, Xue Meng cleared his throat. At that moment, he discovered that Chu Wanning, typically the most powerful among them, was still asleep, not yet roused. He was astonished in spite of himself. “How come Shizun hasn’t woken up?” The trio approached to examine Chu Wanning’s wounds. Chu Wanning had been injured before the illusion activated, and Gouchen the Exalted’s trial only healed those injuries suffered within the illusion. Thus his shoulder was still soaked in a great deal of blood, making it
