'This is just a small setback,' she constantly told herself. 'If I can just hold on, I'll definitely get out of here one day.'
'Besides, Senior Brother will definitely come for me!'
'He will!'
Clinging to this conviction, Xie Qinglan endured the helpless agony.
But as time passed, she was reaching her breaking point. The pain was enough to drive a person completely insane.
It was too painful.
Tears welled in Xie Qinglan's eyes, but she stubbornly held them back. Her vision was already starting to blur.
Just then, something stirred in the swamp above. It looked like something was falling.
"Senior Brother?"
Xie Qinglan was instantly overjoyed. She forced her hazy eyes open and, sure enough, saw a figure.
Meanwhile, Song Wanning had spotted someone below the moment she descended. She had just raised her Longsword to strike when she realized the person looked very familiar.
Taking a closer look, she saw it seemed to be Xie Qinglan.
