No one expected the person who appeared in Tang Ling's room to be the copper-faced man.
Despite his huge size, he was able to sneak into Tang Ling's room without a sound, and Boss Huang did not seem to notice anything either.
It started to drizzle outside the window, and the copper-faced man seemed to be at ease in Tang Ling's room.
He would flip through the pages from time to time before he eventually sat down in front of the small writing desk. He took out a cigarette from Tang Ling's desk and lit it up quietly. He then opened a black booklet that he found in Tang Ling's drawer and started reading.
The booklet was the map that Tang Feng had left for Tang Ling.
Due to the Ninth Ruins, Tang Ling did not follow the map to Darkness Port, hence he had yet to finish the last few pages of the booklet.
The copper-faced man exhaled two long puffs of smoke from his nostrils as he read the booklet leisurely.
After that, he put the booklet down, stood up, and stared blankly at the drizzle outside the window for a few minutes.
Due to the mask on his face, no one could see his expression, so no one knew if he was depressed or solemn under the cold rain. Thud!
Thud! Soft footsteps sounded in the room as the copper-faced man finally sat down beside Tang Ling.
What did Tang Ling dream about when he was unconscious? At this moment, his delicate face was frowning slightly.
The copper-faced man stared at Tang Ling's face in silence.
The rain continued to fall.
Maybe because Tang Ling's brows were frowning for a long time, the copper-faced man was a little annoyed, so he extended his black-gloved hand and forcefully smoothed Tang Ling's brows.
Then, he grabbed Tang Ling's arm and pinched it carefully. He used a unique method to massage Tang Ling's arm until his whole body was relaxed.
After that, the copper-faced man finally stood up and scribbled a few lines of words on the desk before he left through the little window in Tang Ling's room.
A while after he left, Boss Huang came back into the room.
The first thing he saw was the note in the room. Boss Huang picked it up without any change in expression. The words on it were like they were carved by a machine.
The content was simple. 'Your massage was half-hearted, so the medicinal effect has yet to spread. The technique on the left arm joint should be … The technique on the abdomen should be … '
Boss Huang held back the urge to curse. He put the note down and grumbled, "I'm not going to press it anymore. So what?"
After that, Boss Huang pouted and quickly looked out the window. After making sure there was no one outside, he heaved a sigh of relief.
He spat out a ball of fire from his palm and engulfed the piece of paper. He looked at Tang Ling who was still unconscious on the bed and scolded, "You little bastard, you sure know how to enjoy yourself."

After a drizzle.
It was already nighttime in Darkness Port.
Tonight, it seemed to be especially cold. After the cold rain, there was a cold wind blowing. Even the usually busiest bar street had few pedestrians.
The natives of Darkness Port were not used to the cold, so they did not like to travel in such weather. Occasionally, two or three people would appear, but they would straighten their collars and run through the puddles on the streets.
He just wanted to go home as soon as possible. When he got home, he would be satisfied with a big bowl of thick black pepper fish soup and a glass of coconut wine.
Even in such a cold night, Tang Long's room felt extra cold.
It was unknown which careless servant forgot to close the window before leaving. The window was wide open, and the cold wind stirred the gauze curtains crazily, blowing the originally blazing fireplace to the point that it was about to be extinguished.
Unfortunately, no one would notice the anomaly within a short period of time.
Because at this moment, when looking at Tang Long's door from the outside, sensitive people would always feel that it was unreal and illusory.
The window was wide open, but from the street, it was tightly shut with only a small gap. It was not opened at all, and the curtains were not fluttering at all.
However, it was still the same. There was always a trace of unreal illusory feeling.
Only a true powerhouse, one that was well-versed in the law of time, would be able to pass by and take a closer look. Tang Long's room was shrouded in a high-level False Time Formation.
If the formation could not be broken, whoever entered the room would only see a certain time and the time difference would not be more than 5 minutes.
In other words, if the False Time Formation was set to 9 o 'clock, those who could not break the formation would only see Tang Long's room at 9 o' clock and not more than 5 o 'clock.
Unfortunately, there were not that many people with the time talent in the world. Even if there were, they would be the mainstays of the major factions. Who would have the time to go to the street to observe Tang Long's room?
So, what was Tang Long's room like at the moment?
Tang Long was still unconscious on the spacious and comfortable bed. Judging from his flushed cheeks and the bandages that had been removed, he seemed to be recovering well.
As a matter of fact, after he was injured, the resources he received were a lot more than Tang Ling. He had the best cell regeneration serums and a precious and special body strengthening prescription that he concocted according to a mysterious formula.
It would only be a few days before he woke up. It would be soon.
Even though he was almost awake, Tang Long had not woken up yet, so he did not know what was going on in the outside world.
For example, when the cold wind blew in his room, he shrunk his body and tightened his arms that were exposed to the heat.
Half an hour ago, the copper-faced man had entered Tang Long's room. He took out a bottle of coconut wine from somewhere and sat on the sofa beside Tang Long's bed. He had already drunk three glasses, but Tang Long had no idea what was going on.
Now, it was a little cold.
The copper-faced man seemed to notice Tang Long's discomfort, so he stood up and tucked Tang Long's arms into the blanket.
Feeling the warmth, Tang Long's expression relaxed. However, for some reason, this' prince 'who was usually aloof, cold, polite, and distant looked so helpless when he slept. He looked a little timid and timid.
The copper-faced man stood in front of Tang Ling's bed and watched him sleep. What was on his mind?
Half a minute later, the copper-faced man reached his hand out. It seemed like he wanted to touch Tang Long's hair, but in the end, he started to massage Tang Long.
It was exactly the same as how he massaged Tang Ling's hair.
After the massage, the copper-faced man seemed a little tired. He sat back on the sofa, poured himself a glass of coconut wine, and drank it slowly.
When he finished the glass of wine, he stood up and walked to Tang Long's bed. Even though he hesitated for a few seconds, he still reached out and touched Tang Long's hair clumsily.
He then left Tang Long's room.
At the same time, the healer in one of the rooms in Tang Long's luxurious mansion fell into a nightmare.
In the nightmare, he kept massaging Tang Long with that mysterious and unique technique.
Whenever he made a mistake, he would repeat it a hundred times. The healer was drenched in sweat as he unknowingly memorized his mistakes in the nightmare.

Starstay City.
After Higan left, the young warriors who were qualified to stay in Sky Castle were disappointed for a long time.
It had been a while since he last saw the most beautiful scenery in Starstay City, Higan, sitting at the edge of Sky Castle and watching the sunset.
What they didn't know was that not only would they not be able to see this beautiful scenery for the next few days, they would never have the chance to see it again in the future.
Because four days ago.
Higan had already left Starstay City quietly.
Those who had an impression of Higan would never forget the scene that day. A young girl in a tattered black robe that resembled a witch's suddenly appeared in Sky Castle.
No one would laugh at her or belittle her because she was dressed like that.
Because when she wore such a strange, old, and tattered outfit, it actually had a special charm. It was like a robe full of dark art, but it also had a hint of decadent, uninhibited, and mysterious style.
In reality, it was really just broken and old. It looked good because the person wearing it was too stunning.
Higan was wearing the same robe when she left. Although the robe was old, it was enough to cover her.
It might not be warm, but in this real world, how could it be colder than that hellish world? The robe was enough to block the wind.
Her long black hair was wrapped in the robe and she had a black scarf over her face, revealing only her eyes.
No one could recognize Higan who was shrouded in darkness.
She had said that they owed each other nothing, so she only took what she brought with her. She did not even take a single Stardust coin's worth of items.
From the beginning to the end, she did not care about the luxurious robe or the delicacies.
She was willing to follow Tang Ling in this old, tattered outfit, even if she had to wander around.
And in the blank memories, this kind of suffering but warm feeling was not unfamiliar to him.
Higan was weak. She had never been so weak before.
She would need a lot of time to recover, would she not? She would have to spend some energy to heal her wounds. She did not want to face Tang Ling with her ugly body.
She was penniless, so it was impossible for her to get any help from the Stardust Council.
Nevertheless, it did not matter.
She would use her feet and every ounce of her strength to reach Darkness Port. She hoped that she could reach Darkness Port before the Life Or Death Ring between Tang Ling and Tang Long started.
Higan decided to walk along the coast. It would be best if there was a ship that was willing to give her a lift, but if not, she would just walk in peace.
She wanted to collect the most beautiful shells along the way and give Tang Ling a present. It might not be precious, but the shells would be a testament to her perseverance along the way. She wanted to repay Tang Ling's trust in her.
