Looking at Lin Mu act like that made Duan Ke only feel more uncomfortable. Especially when his lips gently opened, and he lightly came forwards, a myriad of thoughts popped into her mind. Thoughts which she had never thought of before.

Feeling scared at these thoughts, she closed her eyes in acceptance. But just as she was awaiting the thing that she had imagined, it never happened. Instead, a wave of calmness washed over her body and relived her worries.

Duan Ke could hear some esoteric chants in her ears and could tell that they were coming from the front. She did not understand what the chants meant, but they were helping her. It was as if the chants were lifting a hidden weight that was placed upon her heart.

Duan Ke couldn't tell how much time had passed as when she opened her eyes after the chants had stopped. She no longer felt the terror she had felt before, and a feeling of serenity and peace had replaced it. She had not felt like this in a long time and was cherishing every moment of it.

'What is this?… Did he do it? But how?' Wondered Duan Ke, as she basked in the peaceful feeling.

Her eyes lifted from the ground and looked back at the person standing in front of him. For the first time ever, she was taking such a close look at him. Lin Mu had changed from what she used to remember he looked like.

Duan Ke couldn't almost believe her eyes as she saw the changes in him. Lin Mu's height had increased by a little bit and his hair had grown as well. His physique had also changed slightly, but it wasn't as apparent. Strangely enough, she felt as if his shoulders had become broad like a shield.

She felt as if they would be good for protecting her for some reason. As she thought of this, her face was tinged with a slight shade of pink.

'What am I thinking? Ah! Why do I feel like this?' Duan Ke questioned herself.

Forcibly suppressing her thoughts, she focused her attention again. This time on more important things, such as why Lin Mu was here and how he was able to enter this place.
