Young Master Rong did not avoid his gaze in the slightest. His pitch-black eyes that were as black as ink met Yue Luoxue's cold gaze and said, ”You called out to me.”
Yue Luoxue looked at Young Master Rong as if he was an idiot. The corner of her mouth suddenly twitched, her eyes slightly bent, and she sweetly smiled.
That smile was pure and bright, and even contained a trace of foolishness. Seeing her like that, Young Master Rong's mood couldn't help but to improve, and her usually cold lips curved up in an almost invisible curve.
”How long more do you want?”
Only then did Yue Luoxue realize that the two had already landed on the ground. Her heart had some regrets at first, but then she felt embarrassed, she actually wanted Young Master Rong to hug her a little longer!
He quickly jumped down and laughed dryly, ”Hehe, about that, I was so scared just now that I couldn't react in time.”
”I didn't know you were so timid.” The Young Master Rong's cold voice seemed to carry a trace of ridicule.
Yue Luoxue could only laugh dryly, her black and white eyes looked around him, wanting to change the topic, but she did not seem to be surprised: ”This, what is this place?”
The place they landed on wasn't a natural cave, but a man-made underground palace. Although the walls on both sides were covered in vines, one could still see the mottled murals on them.
The people drawn on it were obviously not from North Qi s, but there was a certain difference in clothing items. Neither of them spoke, and only walked along the tunnel for a few steps, as Young Master Rong had already taken out a few Moonlight Stones and placed them in various corners. The lighting was very good.
A portion of the frescoes were covered and corroded by vines, making them look a little mottled. Yue Luoxue read them as she walked, and occasionally brushed away the vines on the stone walls. The majority of the murals described life, looking gentle and warm.
Yue Luoxue's footsteps paused, the image in front of him was of a woman rocking the cradle, the woman only had her back, and the child in the cradle couldn't be seen clearly, but in that moment, Yue Luoxue felt a sense of familiarity, as if she was lying in the cradle.
Shaking his head, he chuckled. This painting is truly powerful, to think that it would have such a strong sense of introduction.
On the other side, Young Master Rong was also looking at the frescoes. Starlight flickered in her calm and clear black eyes, and when she reached a certain place, she also stopped, quietly staring at the frescoes as her slender fingers slightly bent.
Yue Luoxue turned her head and saw Young Master Rong standing there. She said somewhat happily, ”Young Master Rong, did you find something good? ”Let me see …”
Before she could finish speaking, Young Master Rong waved her hand and the fresco landed on the ground along with the vines.
”Hey, Young Master Rong, you, how did you destroy it!” Yue Luoxue looked at the destroyed mural, and could vaguely see what kind of ceremony was going on.
The eyes under the Young Master Rong's mask didn't seem to be affected at all, and his voice was even colder than before: ”Oh, I was just not careful.”
Yue Luoxue rolled her eyes. I was careless, I must be lying, how could Young Master Rong accidentally destroy the frescoes? He must have found something good to stop him from seeing!
'Forget it. Men always want face. It's fine if I don't expose him, even though my heart is filled with unwillingness and sadness from the loss.
Yue Luoxue who was a little disappointed did not realize that the chattering Thousand Revolution Worm Poison was not jumping around like it usually was. It was buried in the spirit liquid with its amber eyes wide open as it looked outside.
Her clear eyes revealed shock, suspicion and excitement. She quietly looked at Yue Luoxue's Spirit Root, and when she stabbed it into the Spirit Liquid, she remained silent.
”Ai, I don't know where this place is. It looks weird.” Yue Luoxue muttered to herself. The strange familiarity of the scene made her interested in this place.
Young Master Rong glanced at Yue Luoxue: ”It's just some ancient remains, nothing special.”
Yue Luoxue swept her eyes across the empty underground palace, and could only nod his head. She raised his head to look at the sky, and knew that it was already late, and said: ”How about we leave?”
Young Master Rong nodded: ”Okay.”
With that, he turned around. Yue Luoxue's hands were quick and she quickly pulled him back: ”Um, Young Master Rong, bring me along.”
Ye Zichen raised his head and looked up. He could see the distant starry sky, but he guessed that this underground palace was at least a few hundred meters deep. It wasn't impossible for her to climb up, but …
”Are you going?” Young Master Rong's voice was as cold as usual.
However, Yue Luoxue was already immune to it, and laughed slyly: ”Today, I was injured. I overused my strength, so I can't hold on anymore.”
Young Master Rong glanced at Yue Luoxue with his pitch-black pupils: ”My pellets are very good, you can try it.”
The smile on Yue Luoxue's face gradually disappeared, she felt that her skin was thick enough, but no matter what, Young Master Rong was the man she liked, and for him to be so 'shameless', he probably did not like it, right?
”Heh, then I'll give it a try.” As he turned around, a trace of loneliness flashed across his face. As expected, it was all his fault for being sentimental. Young Master Rong was still Young Master Rong.
Young Master Rong frowned, he never thought that Yue Luoxue would turn around so straightforwardly, he thought that she would play tricks on him, but just as he was about to open his mouth, he saw that Yue Luoxue had already pulled on a vine, trying to test its toughness.
”Pah!” Yue Luxue hadn't thought that those vines would be so fragile. She had only pulled them once, how could they have been broken?
What made her even more shocked was that with a pa sound, what fell down wasn't a vine, but a black thing. It really hit Yue Luoxue's head and the Thousand Revolution Worm Poison that was in the midst of her dantian suddenly shook: ”Catch! ”Little girl, catch them!”
