Song Ci was at a loss.

Rong Bai hugged him so tightly he pulled his wounds, but Song Ci did not dare to struggle. He slowly raised his hands to pat him on the back and asked softly, “I merely went out for a walk. What’s wrong?”

“You said you would stay here…” Rong Bai murmured. “I thought you left.”

Song Ci was a little moved. He smiled and said, “If I want to leave, I’ll definitely inform you in advance. Don’t worry.”

He could not understand why Rong Bai valued him so much. From what he could remember, he was merely a minor demon that had appeared on Sihuang Mountain.

But Rong Bai’s dependence on him was too obvious.

He had only disappeared for a moment, and Rong Bai lost his composure to such an extent. This was hard for Song Ci to fathom.

Rong Bai’s breaths fell upon his ear. The unbearable heat made Song Ci turn his head to the side. Following his movement, Rong Bai’s hands slid down to grasp his shoulders, prompting Song Ci to let out a soft cry.

“Are you hurt?” Rong Bai released him from his arms and lowered his eyes to look at him. Then he pulled him by the wrist and led him inside.

“They are all minor injuries. It’s no big deal.” Song Ci felt that the wounds on his body were healing pretty fast. Perhaps he would be fully recovered after a sleep.

But Rong Bai did not think so. He led Song Ci to Tianqiong Spring and said to him, “Tianqiong Spring is conducive for healing wounds. Go in for a dip.”

There was no reason for Song Ci to turn him down, so he nodded and began to disrobe. After undoing two clasps, he realized that Rong Bai was still staring at him with no intention of leaving. So Song Ci stayed his hands.

“Are you going to stand here and watch?” He asked.

Rong Bai’s eyebrows gave an imperceptible twitch before he turned his head and said, “I’ll come for you later.”

With that, he raised his foot to leave, but after taking two steps, he added, “Don’t run about again.”

Song Ci felt like laughing. He inexplicably found Rong Bai a little childish. After watching him leave, he began to undress. It was only after he stripped that a thought came to his mind.

Why would he mind Rong Bai watching? They were both clearly men…

Song Ci did not come up with the answer to the question. He used his foot to test the spring water. When he found the temperature just right, he stepped into the spring amidst the steaming white mist to immerse his entire body in its waters.

The healing effect of Tianqiong Spring was quite potent. He soaked in it for merely a while, and his entire body had gone soft. He sensed those circulating spiritual energy thread their way into every part of his body. They swathed around his injured muscles and bones, gently soothing him.

Song Ci was indeed tired. He had fought with Tu Shan Yue, and he had lain on hard stone slabs. He returned, hurting all over. Now that he was soaking in the comfortable spring water, his overburdened body began to cry out in exhaustion.

He leaned back in a relaxed pose against the jade support on the bank. Then he closed his eyes and maneuvered the spiritual energy in his body to cultivate.

But he was simply too exhausted, and he had only just closed his eyes for a while when his consciousness began to dim. He fell into a slumber, no longer able to tell where he was.
