After securing the main gate, Yunyi rushed back to Old Master Chu’s room. She eagerly retrieved the necklace from the secret compartment and noticed that the brown pendant beneath the peach-wood plaque seemed much more lustrous than before.
Her heart raced at the sight, and she tried communicating with it through her thoughts. It wasn’t long before her suspicions were confirmed. This truly is a ray of hope in a seemingly hopeless situation!
If not for the fear of attracting unnecessary trouble, I really want to shout a few times to vent this excitement!
She silently willed herself to enter, and in an instant, she disappeared from where she stood.
As she looked around, she realized this space, although vastly different from her original one, was still a great stroke of fortune.
However, after the initial excitement, a tinge of disappointment settled in.
The excitement was natural, given this newfound opportunity. It would not only greatly facilitate her future actions but also provide her with a personal trump card for self-preservation.
The disappointment stemmed from the fact that, as far as the eye could see, the space was full of stones, without a hint of greenery. Aside from the Stone House at the center and a stone pavilion not far away, there was nothing else.
The stones here varied in size and color.
I wonder what’s so extraordinary about this space?
I initially thought that stone pavilion was a place for resting.
But upon approaching, she discovered a well in the middle of the pavilion. Beside it stood a modest-sized stone engraved with the words ’Spring Spirit.’ The stone bearing the inscription was made of the same material the pendant had transformed into after absorbing blood.
It seems I was shortsighted before, mistaking unpolished jade for a common stone. That pendant, which looked no different from an ordinary rock, is truly no common item.
This well before me is quite exquisite, and the water is within arm’s reach. It must also be no common thing.
Once I figure out what’s going on with this space, I must be the first to taste this water.
Annoyed, Yunyi had no choice but to exit the space again. I’ll wait until it’s dead silent tonight and then come back in to investigate thoroughly.
When she opened the main gate, Sun Ruiming stood outside with a pretentious air. The original owner of this body really had terrible taste, fancying such a two-faced creature. "Is there something you need?"
