Tang Yuan's smug hand finally stopped moving and his eyes widened: ”What, what did you say! Ancient … Ruins? Xiao Xuexue, you aren't lying to me? ”
”Am I that kind of person?” Yue Luoxue blinked her eyes.
Tang Yuan threw himself at with an excited face: ”Xiao Xuexue, I love you the most, you are really my lucky star!”
Yue Luoxue hurriedly stretched out her hand to block it, ”Alright, take me to look for the Black Eerie Swamp first. After this is done, I'll tell you the coordinates.”
”Of course, then what are we waiting for? Let's go now!” Let me tell you, Xiao Xuexue, I am most proficient in such dark and gloomy tombs … ” Tang Yuan impatiently pulled Yue Luoxue, wishing for nothing more than to immediately fly out.
”Xiao Xuexue, are you sure there's something here that you want?” In the middle of the night, a chilly wind blew on the unmarked cemetery, sending shivers down one's spine. Ghostly flames flashed in all directions, and the smell of rotten corpses floated in the air, making one break out in a cold sweat.
”Woo woo, Xiao Xuexue, I'm so scared.” Facing the cold and desolate wind, Tang Yuan's legs trembled as he pulled on Yue Luoxue's sleeves.
Yue Luoxue was extremely speechless, ”Don't you usually steal tombs? What are you afraid of?!”
”Wu wu, that's a dead person, of course I'm not afraid. Are you looking for a living person now, looking for Gu worms? I'm so scared …”
”Shh …” Yue Luoxue shushed them and strained her ears to listen for movement. While the birds and insects were screeching, she heard a faint sound of footsteps!
”Xiao Xuexue, let's go back and sleep.” Tang Yuan felt even more eerie.
Right at that moment, Tang Yuan felt a heavy slap on his shoulder, shocking him to the point that his mouth dropped open. He did not dare make a sound, but turned his head in shock and fear, facing an exquisite mask.
Borrowing the moonlight to see the approaching person, Tang Yuan heaved a sigh of relief: ”Young Master Rong, you're in quite a good mood. How come you like coming to this kind of place in the middle of the night?”
Yue Luoxue, who was standing at the side, looked at Young Master Rong's tall and straight body, and his heart inexplicably calmed down. Even if she said she wasn't afraid, she would still show off.
”Why are you here?” It was obvious that she really wanted to go closer and seek comfort, yet Yue Luoxue resisted the urge in her heart, looking very indifferent on the surface.
Young Master Rong took off his cape, walked to Yue Luoxue and helped her put it on.
”…” Young Master Rong's warm breath fell behind Yue Luoxue's ears as she felt a slight itch on her face. She lowered her head to hide her bashfulness, and then casually walked around, tricking ghosts, who would walk around this kind of place in the middle of the night?
Could it be that he followed me?
Tang Yuan tactfully went to the side for a ”walk”. He did not look like he was afraid at all.
Suddenly, the faintly discernible sound of footsteps could be heard once again. From the direction of the footsteps, it seemed as if... It wasn't far from them.
Yue Luoxue and Young Master Rong looked at each other, and the two nodded in tacit understanding, then slowly walked in the direction of the footsteps.
