Chapter 212
“Cock-a-doodle-doo~~~ Cock-a-doodle-doo!”
Dong… Dong… Dong…
At dawn, the sound of a rooster’s crow echoed, followed by a series of bell chimes reverberating throughout the Tianxuan Sect.
Inside the room, Xu Ming slowly opened his eyes. His first sensation was the weight pressing heavily on his shoulder.
Lowering his head, Xu Ming saw that Shen Shengsheng was sprawled on his shoulder, sound asleep.
Since Xu Ming was traveling with just this little girl, they were assigned a single-occupant courtyard, per the Tianxuan Sect’s rules.
However, the sect had thoughtfully considered their situation. In the small room, the bed was a bunk bed—Shen Shengsheng slept on the top bunk, and Xu Ming took the bottom.
This arrangement worked quite well, actually.
Being in someone else’s territory, Xu Ming couldn’t fully trust the courtyard’s protective formations. What if something happened while he was asleep? After all, Shengsheng was his only weakness now.
