Wu Long felt the first sign of her awakening, and sat up straight, bringing his foot down and leaning a bit forward.
Her eyelids slightly trembled, and the next moment her figure disappeared into black smoke, as did his, both of them reappearing a bit to the side, as he gently held her wrist, and then immediately let go at a speed not possible for her to catch, and gently called out, "Xinyi"
Her crimson eyes, although showing signs of being slightly disoriented, were nevertheless brimming with coldness, and extreme alertness, caution, and intense killing intent, her hands starting to glow crimson with thick black liquid-looking smoke coming off from them as she was about to attack the hand that grabbed her.
Having been freed, her figure was once again covered in black smoke but the moment before completely disappearing into it, her eyes widened.
"...W-Wu Long…?", she blurted out with disbelief.
