Bai Wu protected everyone from the falling giant rocks and found a way out of the catacomb. They left the eerie place behind and were greeted by the blue sky. Everyone was cheering happily on Bai Wu’s back and some even wept tears of joy.
“Sit still! Wouldn’t want any of you to fall!” Bai Wu reminded them out of good intention. Everyone sat down; some hugged Bai Wu’s neck and some clung onto his wings. Those who could not find a place to grip were holding on to their companions for dear life.
Bai Wu was circling in the sky before he swooped down. He penetrated through the thick layers of clouds before finally landing on the wooden tower at the mountain top.
“Isn’t this Wu Ling’s place?” Zhang Fei was the first to get off. He was helping everyone to get down when he saw the dark brawny man who was tied to the pillar.
“Uh huh, ignore him. Let’s go in and get some rest,” said Bai Wu as he waited for everyone to get down before turning back into his human form.
The businessman looked at Bai Wu in confusion. Even though Bai Wu looked like the same person on the outside, he could not help but notice the maturity in his every move. Bai Wu’s lazy voice became low and solemn, one could say that it was almost irresistible.
“Are you really Bai Wu?” He wondered if something had gone wrong during the soul-summoning, perhaps a different soul took advantage of that and came back to life in Bai Wu’s body.
Bai Wu frowned and replied, “The one and only.”
For some reason, the businessman found it hard to dismiss Bai Wu’s reply. Prior to this, he had a lot of questions on his mind. All of them died down after one look from Bai Wu.
The mountains spanned across the area endlessly and were decorated with greenery. The clouds in the sky presented themselves in different kinds of shapes and the gentle breeze created a relaxing atmosphere. Bai Wu took a seat where Wu Ling used to sit.
“Wow, to think that we’re back at Yanyi Village! After everything that we’ve gone through, we’re back at where we first started.”
“The mystery of Yanyi Village is still unresolved. Perhaps we can finally find out what’s going on.”
“Is Xu Lan awake?”
“No, but Bai Wu made sure that he’s settled down.”
“Sigh, what a…”
“Cough, cough!” Bai Wu coughed displeasedly and clenched his fists. The chattering voices faded away and everyone stood in attention.
“Let’s sort out everything that we’ve gone through over the past few days and do a headcount. Even though the mystery of Yanyi Village is important, I’m more concerned about the loophole in the system. Personally, I’m not affected by it. It’s only a matter of time before I’m out of here. However, this dimension will continue to exist and more people will lose their lives here. I’m sure that Xu Lan would not want to see this. So please, try to recall if there’s anything suspicious.”
Bai Wu sat in the main hall and looked at his audience solemnly. Everyone lowered their head, even the crew-cut man was listening to Bai Wu respectfully.
“Am I clear?” Bai Wu frowned and asked in displeasure.
“Yes!” Bai Wu relaxed after hearing everyone’s reply. He stood up and walked over to the businessman, giving him a few solemn pats on his shoulder.
It was not necessary for an emperor to do everything by himself. So long as the emperor found himself a trusted aide, his trusted aide could make him the ruler of the world—exactly what Zhuge Liang was to Liu Bei.
“Wow, I didn’t expect so many of you to make it back alive. Would you like a cup of tea?” A petite shadow flashed through. A girl came in with a teapot and asked cheerfully.
“You! You! You…”
“What?” The girl leaped forward and landed right in front of Zhang Fei before asking cheekily.
“You, aren’t you dead?” Zhang Fei stuttered and moved his chin away from Xue Yin’s fingers.
