The Dark Forces were repelled, bringing a brief moment of peace to the city. However, the scars left by the war were deeply etched in every corner. Lin Feng, Liu Yan, and Xiao Feng were utterly exhausted and covered in wounds.
Lin Feng lay inside a makeshift camp tent. As a late-stage Martial Master with profound internal energy, this battle had nonetheless severely injured his vital qi. Wounds crisscrossed his body, each one seeming to recount the brutality of the fight. His breathing was heavy and slow, every inhalation accompanied by a sharp pain, yet his eyes revealed a sense of relief and determination.
In another tent, Liu Yan, an early-stage Martial Master, remained unconscious due to the excessive exertion of her internal energy and physical strength. Her pale face lacked a trace of color, and her long eyelashes fluttered slightly, as if she were still experiencing the tension of battle in her dreams. Medical staff anxiously attended to her nearby, constantly changing her wet cloths and checking her temperature, terrified that her condition might worsen.
