Gu Jin was sitting on the ground in a meditative position with a blue protective barrier around her. There was also a skeleton warrior whose bones were scattered on the ground.
Few beast of Emperor Class were attacking the barrier and the barrier had a faint crack.
Long Yifan and Gu Jihu rushed forward without thinking.
"Gu Jin!" Gu Jihu shouted.
But Gu Jin didn't move. Her eyes were closed, her breathing calm. She was deep in her epiphany.
Long Yifan quickly checked the situation. "That barrier is going to break soon," he said. "She won't wake up in time."
The Emperor-class beasts growled and slammed against the barrier again. Another crack formed, and the blue light flickered.
"We have to protect her," Long Yifan said.
Within the next 10 minutes, Long Yifan and Gu Jihu dealt with all the beasts.
Looking at the barrier, Gu Jihu muttered,
"We can't bring her back like this."
"Let her stay here. I will protect her." Long Yifan said.
