She slowly reached out with her hand, allowing the slender fingers to gently caress the handwriting on the wall….
BRRrrr!
Suddenly, the whole ground started to shake from out of the blue. Looking up, Bai Yan discovered a dark door appearing along the wall like it’s there to welcome her arrival….
Without any hesitation, she pushed it open and walked through where a warm lady’s chamber welcomed her view. It’s very comfortable merely from looking at the layout.
Somehow, Bai Yan got this strange sensation that she’s lived here before. Unable to help it, the demon queen came closer to the big bed at the center…..
“I don’t know why I was able to come to this place and open so many secret doors, but I know you have a way to get me out of this ruin. My daughter… she’s waiting for me outside, so….”
From the moment she came back out from where her father was trapped, Bai Yan’s always felt a gaze overseeing herself from the dark. It’s not ominous or coming at her with ill-intent, it’s more of the curious kind so she didn’t make a big deal out of it.
But……
She’s here now, where the sensation was at its strongest. It’s time she got to the bottom of that spying.
“Don’t think you can hide from me just because you won’t talk. I know you’re behind everything that’s happened thus far. I don’t know why you did this, but why don’t you come out and talk, I know you’re not doing it out of malicious intent. I cannot stay here.” Bai Yan lightly frowns, her eyes revealing a strange light.
“Chirp Chirp.” A chirping sound came from ahead after that statement.
Locking onto the source, Bai Yan immediately saw a golden little chickling gingerly protruding its head from the other side of the bed. Its gaze was curiously eyeing the lady who came into its territory.
“A golden chicklet?” Bai Yan blinks in surprise.
Staring down at the little fella, “Did you bring me to this place?”
The golden chicklet shook its head profusely.
He’s not lying. There’s nothing wrong about him opening that dark door, but… it doesn’t explain why this woman was able to come inside here.
“Not you?” Bai Yan wrinkled her brow.
Ever since she laid eyes upon this little golden fluff feather, Bai Yan’s certain that spying sensation hailed from the tiny thing since it disappeared in that very second they locked eyes.
“Then is there any way you can get me out of here?” Moving closer, the demon queen reaches out to lift the chicklet off the bed to speak.
Based on her speculation, this chicklet likely broke out of its shell not too long ago. The hair on its body was very small still so it’s very cute and adorable.
“Chirp Chirp.” The tiny fella struggled under those fingers and made a sad and wronged face. It wants Bai Yan to let him down.
“Only if you answer my question first. Is there a way to get me out of here?” Bai Yan’s voice got a little heavier as she asked again.
Ling Yan was waiting outside. It’s bad enough she’s wasted all this time going through that passageway, it’s only going to get worse if she has to spend more time in this bed chamber even if she does feel a sense of familiarity here.
The chicken fell silent, its expression looking like its thinking.
After a long while, it finally nodded its head.
Growing happy at the nod, Bai Yan swiftly continued: “So what’s the plan to let me leave?”
The chicklet struggles some more and broke free from that hand before heading further into the bed chamber.
