Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Shen Yaowei was instantly awakened. She opened her eyes and met Yao Qingyi’s worried eyes.
Yao Qingyi was very happy to see her wake up. “You’ve been unconscious for a day and a night. How do you feel now?”
“I’m alright.” Shen Yaowei couldn’t care less about the tearing pain coming from her body. Thin sweat seeped out of her forehead. She looked around, but she didn’t see Qi Yuan and Huo Junhan. “You said I was unconscious for a day and a night? What about Junhan and the Imperial Preceptor?”
At the mention of the two of them, Yao Qingyi’s eyes darkened. “Apart from talcing care of you, I’ve been searching the surroundings for the past day and night, but I haven’t seen any traces of the two of them. I don’t know if they came successfully or not…”
When Shen Yaowei heard this, she carefully observed her surroundings and realized that they were in a deep canyon. On both sides were black cliffs that towered into the clouds. They were steep and nonchalant, and there was no end in sight. Be it the sky or the ground, they were all pitch-black. Only by relying on some shining crystals growing on the mountain wall could she barely see the surrounding environment clearly.
Not only that, but there was also a strong miasma and death aura drifting in the air. At a glance, the surroundings were lifeless, making one feel uncomfortable all over.
Shen Yaowei gritted her teeth and rejected Yao Qingyi’s support. “Thank you, Senior Brother Yao. I can do it myself.”
Seeing Shen Yaowei’s serious expression, Yao Qingyi retracted her hand awkwardly. “Miss Shen, you don’t have to worry so much. Master and His Highness are very strong. Compared to you and me, they’re more proficient in dealing with the danger here.”
“Well, that’s indeed the case.” Although Shen Yaowei said that, she still couldn’t help but feel worried.
However, she didn’t know their whereabouts now, so she could only suppress the uneasiness in her heart.
Shen Yaowei took a deep breath. When she opened her eyes again, there was only a cold expression in them. “Senior Brother Yao, although we’ve scattered, we can’t keep waiting for Junhan and the others to come to us. We have to do our best to find the divine weapon. 1 remember that before the Imperial Preceptor handed the charm to Senior Brother to investigate the divine weapon, right?”
Yao Qingyi originally wanted to persuade Shen Yaowei to rest for a while before leaving, but when he saw her determined expression, he had no choice but to swallow the words that were stuck in his throat again. “Yes, I’ll activate the charm now. Let’s find the divine weapon together.”
Shen Yaowei nodded and said politely, “Thank you, Senior Brother.”
Seeing that Shen Yaowei’s every word was so cold and hard, an unnatural smile appeared on Yao Qingyi’s face. He said softly, “Miss Shen, actually, you don’t have to be so polite to me. Why don’t you call me by my name?”
“Senior Brother entered the Imperial Residence earlier than me. It’s only right to call you Senior Brother. Senior Brother Yao, let’s quickly find a divine weapon and think of a way to leave this place.”
Shen Yaowei clearly saw Yao Qingyi lower his head with a lonely expression, but she didn’t say anything when she saw this scene.
In fact, she knew very well what Yao Qingyi was thinking, but she only had Junhan in her heart. Whether it was for herself or for Junhan, she couldn’t give Yao Qingyi any false hope.
Although Yao Qingyi looked lonely, her hand was very fast. She raised her hand and formed a talisman. Then, with a flick of her finger, the talisman swept out.
Buzz!
The charm turned into an eye. After opening it, it floated in the air and looked around. Then, as if it had been summoned, it slowly walked forward.
Shen Yaowei raised her foot and tapped gently on the ground. Her figure rushed out like a bolt of lightning and quickly followed the charm forward.
The power of the charm was extremely shocking. It brought them along as they ran until they arrived in front of a cave..
