Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
At that mont, Ling Yun was utterly baffled.
Who am I?
Where am I?
Why did that woman just casually stroll out? Where’s the Sixth Lord?
“Don’t you want to go inside and check on him?” Shen Wan flashed a smile, and this mushroom-haired kid looked sowhat familiar…
Ling Yun’s expression froze, snapping back to reality, and he rushed inside.
Wait… sothing’s not right!
Just as he dashed a few steps, Ling Yun hit the brakes abruptly. He hadn’t even figured out who that woman was. Even if he was concerned about Quan Banting, he should have captured her first! But as he realized this and was about to turn back to catch her, there was no trace of her.
In that instant, Ling Yun’s mind was flooded with details he had previously overlooked. He couldn’t ignore the woman’s torn clothing, ssy hair, and unnaturally pale complexion any longer. Ling Yun clenched his teeth, realizing that he had walked right into a trap.
Recalling the woman’s expression once more, she was smiling, but her eyes were like a taut bowstring, ready to snap at any mont. That was a look that only appeared in situations of extre tension and panic.
“Damn it!” He cursed softly, abandoning the idea of chasing the woman, and quickly headed inside. The top priority was ensuring Quan Banting’s safety!
Forty seconds later, Ling Yun widened his eyes, looking at the man peacefully asleep on the rosewood bed, and he was once again dumbfounded.
On the bed, his master still lay sound asleep, his face marked with scratches, and bloodstains adorned his neck.
The crucial part was, even with all the noise he made rushing in, the man hadn’t woken up?!
Quan Banting was in a light slumber, and both Ling Yun and Chu Yujiang, who had been with him for a long ti, knew his sleep habits well. These habits included trouble falling asleep, restless sleep, and the fact that even when extrely tired, the slightest disruption could wake him up.
But now…
Ling Yun carefully checked his vital signs, from his breathing to his pulse. His actions were swift, and the results indicated that there was indeed no problem at all, he was just asleep.
Early morning, 6:15.
Despite it being sumr with long daylight hours and short nights, the scene inside the “underground palace” was one of perpetual artificial illumination. This unique space, designed with the flow of hot springs in mind, lacked windows and featured only two doors for access.
With water and doors, there inevitably cos a breeze. In the present mont, the diaphanous canopy encircling the intricately carved rosewood bed swayed gently, while the person within remained in serene slumber. The interplay of his movents and stillness created a captivating sight.
Hu Zhibei was left speechless at the sight, while Ling Yun fully accepted this abnormality and appeared even calr than him.
“Did a woman really co out from here?” Hu Zhibei confird for the nth ti.
“Yes.”
“Oh my god! This is too bizarre…”
Quan Banting had a particularly sweet slumber, and he couldn’t rember the last ti he had slept so soundly. The next mont, his breath caught, his whole body stiffened. That woman…
“The Sixth Lord is awake!” Ling Yun suddenly exclaid, and Hu Zhibei imdiately surrounded him.
“Sixth Brother, how are you feeling?”
Quan Banting sat up, leaning against the head of the bed. His calm gaze concealed depths that were hard to discern, and he looked down, seeming sowhat reluctant to et their eyes.
Thinking back to the mont the woman intruded, the instant their eyes t, those innocent, slightly anxious eyes almost imdiately made him think of a certain long-eared, fluffy creature. However, what happened next undeniably overturned his initial judgnt.
Suddenly, the man’s lips curled into a mischievous smile. There was a hint of wickedness in his expression. “So, it’s not a little white rabbit after all…”
Little white rabbits weren’t this audacious, nor would they act so recklessly.
It was more like a small wildcat that knew how to use its claws!
