Outside the stone cave, Ye Wushuang gazed at the moon-shaped pendant hanging from Xiaoxiao's neck. Surprisingly, instead of harming Xiaoxiao, he calmed down.
However, in the distant sky, the Heaven-Reaching Light Pillar showed no signs of subsiding.
That place was the Lost Village.
Ye Wushuang turned his head to gaze into the distance, his brow furrowed. 'This commotion is too big. It'll probably attract unwanted attention. It seems I have to get back as soon as possible.'
He checked on Xiaoxiao, and only after confirming she was alright did Ye Wushuang feel relieved.
"Xiaoo Yue, we need to get back to the village, fast!"
Ye Wushuang shouted urgently, not dwelling on why the pendant hadn't caused Xiaoxiao any harm.
He led the three of them away at a rapid pace, heading for the village.
...
「The Lost Village.」
"Ah, my son!"
The couple went mad with grief. With a burst of strength from an unknown source, they broke free from the irresistible force that bound them!
