A fragrant breeze came to Shen Shuchou's side, interrupting his thoughts.

"How are you feeling? Are you feeling any better?"

Yu Linghuan sat to one side and spoke softly.

"It's just so-so."

Shen Shuchou smiled softly.

Here! Eat this.

A pill emitting an ancient fragrance appeared in Yu Linghuan's slender palm.

"No need. It will end eventually. Why interfere along the way?"

Shen Shuchou shook his head slightly in refusal.

"Although I saved you, you probably won't last much longer without taking the medicine."

Yu Linghuan said with some concern in her voice.

"Death is an inevitable path for everyone. Even if you live for thousands of years, in the end you are nothing but a skeleton."

Shen Shuchou smiled calmly.

"But she'll be sad. She's already cried once, why make her sad again?"

Yu Linghuan wanted to use the fox spirit Bai Bai to persuade Shen Shuchou to take his medicine.

"She has to grow up eventually, doesn't she? Some people are just passing through our lives, so there's no need to be sad."

Shen Shuchou's words immediately silenced Yu Linghuan.

Looking at the carefree Shen Shuchou, Yu Linghuan lowered her eyes, unsure of what to think.

Yu Linghuan's intermittent contact with Shen Shuchou over the past three months would unconsciously remind her of what happened that day.

The endless spring scenery on the bed lingered in Yu Linghuan's mind.

Through her interactions with Shen Shuchou, Yu Linghuan was unconsciously captivated by his aura.

He seemed indifferent to everything in the world, showing no interest in anything, except for Fox White.

This seemingly aloof man also seemed to reserve all the tenderness in his eyes for Hu Baibai.

To this day, Yu Linghuan still cannot understand why a talented disciple of the Shangqing Dao Sect would be willing to give up his future to leave the mountain.

All he cared about was the fox spirit outside the door. He could have shone brightly in the future, written his own legend, and stood atop the clouds.

But now he has fallen into the state of a sickly mortal, yet he still appears calm and composed.

It is said that there is great terror between life and death. From ordinary people in the mortal world to cultivators in the immortal world, even powerful beings who dominate a region, they all try every means to increase their lifespan.

But the man before him seemed to have long since disregarded life and death.

Sometimes, Yu Linghuan even had the feeling that death was a kind of relief for him.

Yu Linghuan knew that Shen Shuchou must be hiding many secrets, and she wasn't good at prying into other people's secrets.

Everyone has their own secrets, just like her, who secretly took something from Shen Shuchou to satisfy her sudden curiosity.

Yu Linghuan's gaze quietly fell on Shen Shuchou's profile, his features clear and deep, as if hiding countless secrets.

Yu Linghuan stared blankly, her alluring phoenix eyes gradually becoming hazy, as if she were forgetting her surroundings and the passage of time.

Fox White rubbed its little bottom and glared fiercely at the disappearing figure on the horizon.

After Yu Linghuan left, Hu Baibai jogged back into the house.

With teary eyes, she buried her head in Shen Shuchou's arms, her little head with pigtails rubbing against him.

"I got bullied again."

Shen Shuchou casually rubbed the fox in his arms and laughed.

"Hmph! One day I'll definitely get my revenge and give her a good spanking."

Fox White gritted its silver teeth angrily.

"Then Bai Bai should cultivate diligently."

Shen Shuchou lowered his eyes and said softly.

Fox Bai Bai clenched its fist and said, "Bai Bai will definitely work hard in cultivation, and from now on, Bai Bai will be responsible for protecting Master's safety."

"Okay! I'll wait for you."

Shen Shuchou looked through the shimmering window and smiled slightly.
