While the kitten floated around in mid-air and meowed, behind it was emptiness and quietness that knew no bounds. Xu Lan’s nerves were stretched taut all of a sudden, and his brain was telling him: ‘That’s the void!’
Astonished, Xu Lan looked at Bai Wu, as if to ask, ‘Why did it come so quickly this time?!’ If they were to count based on the dimension’s calculations, they were only there for a few days!
“If there’s nothing more you’d like to ask, go ahead and carry out the respective tasks. I’ll only need Papa here with me to handle this.” Bai Wu wore a gloomy face and remarked hoarsely.
Although all four of them – Zhang Fei, Sheng Ya, the crew-cut man, and the businessman – noticed that something seemed off, they did not ask for fear of being impetuous. Instead, they each brought their own group to check on the status of each element. After they had all gone off, Bai Wu relaxed and once again walked over to the well.
The cat was completely black in color, save for a pair of hopeful, emerald eyes. Sunlight shone into the well and caused its pupils to contract, and with an almost needle-like shape, those eyes stared at both Xu Lan and Bai Wu.
“This…this is the crack? Why is the black cat able to stay in there safe and sound?” Doubts began surfacing in Xu Lan’s heart and he asked uneasily.
“I’m not sure either. I’ve never encountered a situation like this before.” Bai Wu looked askance at the cat. He then tried, in vain, to stretch out his hand in order to carry the cat up.
The black cat seemed oblivious to the dragon’s claw coming for it all of a sudden. Initially, it was shouting its heart out, but at that moment, its voice appeared to have vanished completely. It then lazily stretched its body, while its thin pupils looked as though they were glowing with cold light.
“Oh dear, my little precious, however, did you end up here? I’ve been looking all over for you.” Just as Bai Wu’s hands came into contact with the black cat, a ray of golden light shot out from the void. A gust of wind ruthlessly surged over to Bai Wu, preventing him from touching the cat in the nick of time.
His scarlet pupils contracted, and he made sure to quickly shield Xu Lan behind himself before examining the surroundings.
“Come out!” Bai Wu shouted. The whole void trembled, and his powerful dragon might force whoever was hiding in the well to show themselves.
“Haha, isn’t this our former leader? Why are you here?” A giant, black dragon came out abruptly from the well. The dragon landed audibly in front of Bai Wu, sending shockwaves through the ground.
The dragon’s body was wholly covered in conical scales and it was already in battle mode. Its ears opened and closed like a fan, swaying from front to back, while its strong and sturdy wings were fanning out the wind. Its head was held high like a king who looked cynically at all living things.
“Tch. Why should I report my whereabouts to a traitor?” Bai Wu sneered. A thick mist began enveloping the dragon, while a scarlet radiance flashed through.
“Hmph, you’re still as good as always, with your mouth, that is. As of now, you can’t even set foot on your own homeland. How will you contend with me?” Angered by Bai Wu, the black dragon mocked him contemptuously.
“You!” Bai Wu stepped forward and swiped his tail, but it was caught by the black dragon. “On account of my ancestral lineage, aren’t you also afraid that you’ll have to chase me out when I return?”
“Bai Wu?” Standing between the two dragons, Xu Lan was so tiny that he was almost antlike. The actions of swiping the tail and catching it resulted in waves; those waves were enough to send Xu Lan flying off several meters.
“Papa!” Bai Wu called out hoarsely. He turned to carry Xu Lan into his embrace, then asked softly if Xu Lan was injured.
“Li Xiu once said he met a white dragon who was reluctantly put in a position of forbearance. He suspected it was you, but at first, I wasn’t too keen on believing it. Well, have you really turned so weak that you needed the protection of humans?” The black dragon taunted him with an exaggerated tone.
