Chapter 202: Senior Sister Yu Arrives
Mid-flight, Jiang Chen paused, looking back at his companions. “How about we call Senior Brother Chen along, too?”
Chen Bo was a solitary creature. He had no family left, having severed ties with his clan years ago. His only remaining relative wasn’t even within the Cloud Sea Sect. Although he constantly claimed to enjoy the peace of his own world, Jiang Chen saw through the façade. Every time their eyes met, a profound, lingering loneliness stared back.
Jin Fugui nodded, his jowls wobbling slightly. “Sure. We can hand over his share of the Spirit Stones while we’re at it.”
Mo Yu shrugged, adjusting his robes. “I have no objections.”
With the consensus reached, Jiang Chen retrieved Chen Bo’s Communication Talisman.

When he was a child, he had prayed for time to speed up. Now that he was grown, he was terrified of the nights that refused to end.
