"Yu Shiqi..."
Lin Yue nodded slightly, "Did your masters send you to rescue ?"
Yu Shiqi nodded, "Master said the Patrol Envoy who was supposed to co for you has died, and no more Patrol Envoys will co, so he sent to protect you and take you to Di Hong City."
"What?" Lin Yue’s expression changed slightly, "No more Patrol Envoys will co?"
"That’s what Master said," Yu Shiqi replied.
"Who exactly are your masters? On what basis are they so sure?" Lin Yue couldn’t help but frown.
Yu Shiqi looked sowhat puzzled, "I don’t know, but my masters once served the Sixteenth Prince. They even said I should follow the Sixteenth Prince, but it seems he died a few years ago..."
"What?"
Lin Yue was slightly stunned.
The Sixteenth Prince... died?
How... could a prince be dead?
He took a deep breath, pondered for a while, then said, "So, you’re now going to take away from Qingdu to Di Hong City?"
Yu Shiqi blinked her large eyes, nodded her little head, and then opened her small mouth, only to close it again, looking sowhat hesitant to speak.
"If you have sothing to say, just say it," Lin Yue shook his head slightly.
"Well..."
Yu Shiqi looked at him sowhat embarrassedly, then said cautiously, "Do you know the way to Di Hong City? I don’t know the road..."
"..."
How the hell would I know the way?
Lin Yue was embarrassed to swear aloud.
For a mont, two clueless souls looked at each other.
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps ca from outside the wine cellar.
"Hide," Lin Yue glanced at the bottles and jars on the ground and urged, "Quickly pack up the stuff."
"Oh, okay..."
Yu Shiqi’s movents were like an illusion; she quickly collected the bottles and jars from the ground.
Lin Yue also imdiately put away the Long Bright Pearl, pulling her to hide deep behind the wine racks in the cellar, conveniently hidden in a narrow shadow.
Soon, the door to the wine cellar opened from the outside, and footsteps were heard, seemingly the shopkeeper’s assistant coming down with a candle.
"Where did the manager put that jar of Daughter Red last ti..."
In the dim wine cellar, the flickering candlelight, only the sound of the shopkeeper’s assistant muttering to himself.
Lin Yue held Yu Shiqi as they hid behind the narrow wine racks, feeling that the space was a bit cramped for two people.
A rough martial artist who knows no spells, and has to hide from a mortal... Lin Yue thought speechlessly, seeing Yu Shiqi’s dazed look, he knew she didn’t understand these tricks.
"Hey."
Yu Shiqi suddenly leaned to his ear and whispered, "Why do you have to hide? I can make him not see us."
Though he knew the girl wasn’t teasing, her breathy words still made his ear feel a bit strange, tempting him to give her a couple of slaps.
...Then why didn’t you say so earlier? Lin Yue responded in disbelief, whispering, "Then just do it."
Yu Shiqi sounded a soft ’oh,’ then muttered as if to herself, "Can’t see us, can’t see us, can’t see us..."
What is she doing? Lin Yue wore a perplexed expression.
But as the shopkeeper’s assistant passed by them, the candlelight clearly illuminated them, yet he completely ignored them.
Lin Yue was astonished, what’s the principle here?
"Okay."
Yu Shiqi, looking sowhat proud, pulled out the Long Bright Pearl. Its bright, gentle light instantly illuminated her face, making her fair skin look even whiter against the dark, her long and dense eyelashes fluttering, shadowing her clear, watery eyes, and her naive and hazy gaze made her look as bewildered as a little deer.
She certainly isn’t shy, perhaps she doesn’t even know anything about the affairs of n and won.
anwhile, Lin Yue looked at her expressionlessly, although he felt no turmoil inside, he still thought the girl was quite beautiful.
Just then—
"Right here!"
A calm voice suddenly erupted.
"Boom!"
At the sa ti, the ground above the cellar suddenly exploded, turning to rubble and dust. A dazzling light ford into a giant hand, instantly penetrating the dust, reaching for them!
