âOomphOomph!â Slightly flushed in the face, the old goat scratches his nose out of embarassement: âThat⦠there was a piece of paper stuck underneath the sword before, it said the blade can hurt me. Then later Half Qing Sing tossed it away for some reason or the next.â
Bai Yanâs face just went black.?The person who locked him away here, how perverted is she? Not only did she leave him in that suffering state, she wouldnât even let his mind be at ease?
âAlright, do you know how to get out of here then?â Bai Yan asks while stroking her own chin.
As soon as the old goat heard this, he immediately turned irate: âYou were the one who locked me here, how can you ask me how to get out?â
Shrugging: âLike I said, Iâm not the one you think I am.â
Irked with frustration, Dragon Flame just huffs a grunt of resentment at the womanâs refusal to admit. âI donât know how to leave this place so thatâs that.â
Since this one didnât know, Bai Yan could only turn to the snake for help: âThen what about you?â
Biting her lip, Half Qing Singâs answer wasnât any better: âIf I had known how to leave then I wouldâve left long ago, why would I stay until now for you to come?â
âThen I got no other choice,â furrowing up that brow, Bai Yan starts musing over the options here. âSon, Dragony, letâs keep moving forward, Iâm sure there will be some sort of clue somewhere if we keep walking.â
âDonât worry Mother,â showing a confident and innocent smile, Bai Xiachen had no doubt in his cute little voice, âwe will leave this place.â
Warmed by the comfort, this mother went ahead to rub her boyâs hair as the tense air gradually eased up around everyone. Itâs then another idea hit her. Turning back to the snake: âSay, have you noticed anything special, like a spot that you canât touch or head into?â
âSpecial place?â Half Qing Sing mused over the idea and then pointed towards a specific direction: âThat place over there. I canât get close to it, does that count?â
Slightly nodding: âBring me to that spot, I want to see for myself.â
Though a tad hesitant to do that, the snake nevertheless did as told and slithered through the pale brown grass in her beastial form. Before long, the group has arrived at one corner of the underground valley, and unlike the dark gloomy nature of this underground world, this certain segment was rather, whatâs the word⦠sacred? Itâs giving off a glow of holy nature.
âThis is the place.â Flickering her tongue, the snakeâs voice was all spooky and rattling when she spoke in that form. âWhenever I come here, I would always be stopped by a strange force.â
Bai Yan frowns, slowly reaching out with her hand to probe the glowing white light in front. Unlike the expected obstruction though, nothing happened, that hand just slid right through. Seeing this, she went ahead to step forward with her leg as well to no harm.
The snake literally gawked her eyes out in shock over this picture,?How can this be possible??Why is she able to get in there when Iâm always repelled by a invisible force?
âMother.â The boy saw how his mother had entered the white glow and hurried to catch up. However, the second he drew close his body was immediately bounced away.
âXiachen!â
