Time flies, and it's been a week since the plan to rescue all of humanity from that kidnapping came to an end.

The group at the Dragon King Hall, which has returned to Yinlong Mountain, is taking care of Mu Jinyu day and night in the Inner Valley, apart from Wen Rou and the other women. Yu Shenfeng and San Liu are busy handling various matters of the Dragon King Hall.

"It's been more than a week, how is Jinyu doing?"

"Master said there's no problem, and the Divine Silkworm Princess also said there's no problem, but..."

The women gathered around the bed, looking at Mu Jinyu, who lay there pale and peacefully asleep, and discussed in low tones full of concern.

"Sigh, Buddha Head suffered such severe injuries. At the time, even his soul was shattered, yet he completely woke up three days ago. Jinyu was fine at first, so why has he been in a coma for so long..."

"Master said that if Little Mu hadn't used that Soul Medicine to help Buddha Head, he might still be able to restore his Unity Realm Stage power, and it wouldn't have come to this. Mainly, that Soul Medicine is too strong, which is why Buddha Head, despite being more severely injured than Little Mu, could wake up earlier..."

"I heard that although Buddha Head saved his life, he's lost all his cultivation. Now, Buddha's Light Shines Everywhere is also having a meeting to elect a new Buddha Head!"

"Huh? How did it come to this..."

"Isn't it quite normal? Although Buddha Head is indeed admirable, he doesn't have the strength anymore, so it's naturally not good for him to continue as Buddha Head..."

"Then what about Jinyu..."

"The Dragon King Hall is different from them. We've already transferred the relevant powers to the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow a long time ago. Even if Jinyu turns into a cripple, as long as we support him, he will still be the Dragon King!"

"Hmm, but Little Mu seems not to like being the Dragon King very much. He was forced before, and now that he's like this, if he doesn't want to continue, I think we shouldn't force him..."

"Yes, we understand..."

The women continued to care for Mu Jinyu while discussing quietly.

At this moment, Lin Qiaoxia, who was wiping Mu Jinyu's sweat, suddenly exclaimed, "Hey, I think I just saw Young Master Mu's eyelashes move a little. Is he waking up?"

With that, everyone fell silent, watching Mu Jinyu with concern.

Su Zijin, filled with grief, stared at Mu Jinyu intently, silently praying for him to wake up.

Although in the past few days, there have been many signs that Mu Jinyu might wake up, despite countless letdowns afterward, they still choose to believe and hope every time such signs appear again.

Under the expecting gaze of the women, time slowly passed by.

Five minutes later, Mu Jinyu still showed no sign of waking up.

The women sighed softly in unison, their faces indelibly marked with disappointment and fatigue.

Su Zijin couldn't hold back her tears, beginning to cry softly.

Wen Rou and Lin Qiaoxia promptly began to comfort her with gentle words.

"Hmm..."

At this moment, a familiar low hum sounded.

Su Zijin's body stiffened momentarily. She then released her hands covering her tear-streaked cheeks, looking at Mu Jinyu lying on the bed.

The others did the same, turning their gaze back to Mu Jinyu.

Mu Jinyu's long, thick eyelashes quivered gently before he slowly opened his eyes, looking blankly at the ceiling.

"Jinyu..."

The women were overjoyed to see Mu Jinyu truly awake, tears welling up from excitement.

Su Zijin, overwhelmed with excitement, couldn't help but rush over to lean beside Mu Jinyu, holding his hand tightly, desperately wanting to ask how he felt.

However, Wen Rou and Gu Xiyan stopped her, knowing that Mu Jinyu was still very weak, and his consciousness seemed somewhat unclear, so they shouldn't be too excited.

Realizing her overreaction, Su Zijin calmed herself quickly, merely trembling with emotion and biting her lips while watching Mu Jinyu on the bed.

Time passed slowly.

A half-hour quickly flew by.

Mu Jinyu's blank gaze gradually lit up with a faint spark.

Then, his eyes moved slightly away from the ceiling, looking towards the women beside him.

"Mom... Wen Rou, Xiyan, Sister Mei, Qiaoxia... why are you all here..."

Mu Jinyu, a bit weary, spoke with a hoarse and weak voice.

Hearing this, Su Zijin felt intense pain, but she knew that Mu Jinyu was truly conscious now. She hurriedly moved over to secure him tightly, her voice shaky with tears, "Son, don't do this again next time. Mom is so worried, so worried something might happen to you, sobbing..."

The women, though wishing to crowd around and ask about Mu Jinyu's condition, refrained as they knew Su Zijin's mental state had been unstable over the week. It was better to let her express the fear and anxiety pent up in her heart.

They stayed back, watching Mu Jinyu silently, their eyes filled with tenderness and pity for him.

Listening to Su Zijin's concerned complaints, Mu Jinyu's gaze became distracted. He then murmured softly, "Hmm? I remember now, has everything ended? How is Buddha Head?"

Su Zijin replied, "He woke up three days ago, and recently, Buddha's Light Shines Everywhere has been discussing and nominating a new Buddha Head, so he hasn't had time to come over!"

"It's good that he woke up... it's good..."

Upon hearing this, Mu Jinyu didn't care whether Sheng Rulai had come to see him, replying in a comforting whisper.

In his heart, this rescue method was his proposal, and it was due to his negligence that led to the early collapse of the Buddhist Bell, nearly causing the extinction of humanity. Therefore, even if something happened to him, he must make up for this plan, but Sheng Rulai was unrelated to these.

If Sheng Rulai died because of him, Mu Jinyu would be deeply regretful.

Thus, he exerted all his efforts to save Sheng Rulai, even at the cost of aggravating his injuries.

Now, knowing that Sheng Rulai is safe and has awoken, Mu Jinyu felt that his guilt was lessening, not torturing him as harshly anymore.

The only ones Mu Jinyu felt guilty towards now were those two Divine Plants that had helped him many times!

'Don't worry! As long as I am alive, I will definitely bring you back to health!' Mu Jinyu swore in his heart.

This time, it was indeed a significant loss for him, but he had no regrets!

"Buddha Head has come to see you... do you want to meet him, Jinyu?"

At this time, Gu Xiyan received a message that Buddha's Light Shines Everywhere had elected a new Buddha Head, and Sheng Rulai along with the new Buddha Head had come to Yinlong Mountain seeking to see Mu Jinyu. She looked up at Mu Jinyu, softly asking.

"Have they come? Please, could you go and receive them?"

Mu Jinyu tried to get up to welcome them himself but found his body was so uncomfortable and his head spinning, eventually asking Gu Xiyan and Wen Rou to help receive Sheng Rulai and the others.

Soon, Gu Xiyan brought Sheng Rulai and the new Buddha Head over.

The new Buddha Head was actually Sheng Rulai's disciple, Arhat!

Lying on the bed, Mu Jinyu spoke weakly, "I'm sorry, both of you, I am not feeling well and can't welcome you personally..."

"It's fine as long as the Dragon Master is okay, such a small matter is trivial!"

Gratefully, Arhat spoke to Mu Jinyu's rescue efforts, consistently reassuring him in his manner.

He felt deeply grateful to Mu Jinyu. If it wasn't for Mu Jinyu's life-risking efforts, his master Sheng Rulai might have been very hard to save at the end.

The cost Mu Jinyu paid was great; Sheng Rulai had awakened, yet he had just woken, making Arhat feel utmost respect for him.
