The ground's become extra slick. The hillside rocks feel like ice. I grip the stick. I hear the waterfall crashing against the rocks. I hear Lan Zhan jumping down. I let out a breath. I would jump down but... I can't. Unfortunately, the fight took almost all my spiritual power. I'm painfully weak.
"Wei Ying?" Lan Zhan asks.
"I'm coming." I step down.
"Just use your spiritual power." He says.
I ignore him. I grip the stick. My foot slips quickly. I almost fall. I manage to slam my stick into the ground. I hear Lan Zhan jump up. I feel him take my arm. He jumps down from the ledge. I can feel him looking at me. I wince as a let out a cough.
"Wei Ying. Are you okay?" He asks.
"Just a little dizzy. I'll be fine." I push off of him.
I let out a breath.
"Wei Ying is your spiritual power low?" He asks.
"Depleted." I cough.
"What?" He asks.
"Long story." I cough.
He grabs my arm and puts it around his shoulder.
"Wha-" I say.
He grabs my shoulder. His force feels... hard. I let out a breath and a small smile under my mask.
