In the Ming Capital of the Xinghai Empire, Wang Dong'er's gradually improving injuries suddenly flared up due to lingering damage from previous battles. A sharp pain surged through her, and her body trembled slightly. Gritting her teeth, she endured the agony, determined not to let Xu Jiangyu worry.
Just then, she witnessed the wondrous sight of the Little Snow Woman embryo transforming into a Spirit. The scene filled her with awe, yet she knew she could not speak of it to Xu Jiangyu. She feared that her condition would distract him and affect his actions and decisions.
Biting her lip hard, Wang Dong'er forced herself to remain calm. She watched the process in silence, her mind racing with a tangle of thoughts. She recalled the various hardships and challenges they had faced together, and the deep bond they shared. She knew she had to recover as quickly as possible so she could continue moving forward alongside Xu Jiangyu.
