C2638 Siren(2)
Although Yuan Yue had her own Spirit Power withstanding the pressure and buoyancy of the sea, sitting in the water still made her feel uncomfortable. She kept adjusting her sitting position, trying to find a more comfortable position for herself.
"Moon, why are you here? Where is my brother? "
Suddenly, Xiao Qi's voice came from the direction of the inn's entrance. Yuan Yue immediately looked up and saw Xiao Qi standing at the entrance, looking at her with a smile.
"Hey? Xiao Qi, why are you here? Didn't you follow Zhaowen to the other street? "
Yuan Yue was a little surprised to see Xiao Qi, but she was also quite happy, because she was really bored by herself!
"Isn't this kind of city just a circle? Lee Zhaowen searched every room very carefully. I was a little bored, so I walked forward first! In the end, I walked all the way here!"
Xiao Qi skipped towards Yuan Yue. When she reached her, she realized that Yuan Yue was sitting inside a barrier!
"Eh? Did my brother set up a barrier for you? Is there something here? Is he afraid that you will be in danger? "
Xiao Qi looked strangely at the barrier in front of her, with a hint of fear and vigilance in her eyes!
Yuan Yue didn't think too much about it. She thought that Xiao Qi had seen the barrier that Faang Cheng had set up for her and believed that there should be something dangerous nearby. Thus, she became more vigilant!
"Oh, there was something that moved extremely quickly and even concealed its Spiritual Power. Neither Faang Cheng nor I saw its appearance! At this moment, Faang Cheng has already gone after that thing, leaving me a little worried, so he set up a barrier for me!"
Yuan Yue looked at the Spirit Power barrier around her body and thought for a moment, then came to a sudden realization.
"It seems like I'm the only one who can stay in this barrier set up by Faang Cheng. No one else can enter! He was in a hurry to leave just now, so he didn't think too much about it. I didn't expect you guys to come looking for him!"
Yuan Yue was inside the barrier, while Xiao Qi was outside the barrier. Yuan Yue would more or less feel a little awkward about this kind of scene! This kind of situation was like if there was any danger, Xiao Qi would be the first to bear the brunt of it, and Yuan Yue would be able to protect herself perfectly!
"It's alright. I was just bored to the point that I came here. You continue to stay inside, and I will stay here. Let's chat for a while, otherwise it will be too boring!"
Xiao Qi smiled at Yuan Yue, looking very sensible.
"Besides, who is my brother? Is there anything in the world that can stop him? Don't worry. If he is chasing after that thing, he will surely catch it. So, in general, we won't be in danger!"
She waved her hand as if she didn't care at all!
"Well, you are right!"
Yuan Yue also nodded her head.
"Hey, has Zhaowen found anything? The few houses that Faang Cheng and I found were all empty. Other than the frames of the houses, there was nothing else inside! It looks... extremely desolate!"
Yuan Yue sat there and said lightly.
"That's right. It's been more than nine hundred years. How could there still be anything left behind? Presumably... The reason why this city was protected so well must have something to do with the Spirit Power enveloping the city! Otherwise... I'm afraid that even these houses will be gone. There will only be some ruins that can barely be identified as cities and houses!"
Xiao Qi heaved a long sigh, and her voice sounded a little sad. It seemed that she was reminiscing about the past!
"Yeah, time is so terrifying. It can wipe out everything! This city was deeply buried here, so who would remember that there was such a big city here? And the people in this city... Ah... Looking at those white bones, I can imagine the extremely horrible scene back then! "
Yuan Yue imperceptibly looked up at Xiao Qi, who was sitting outside the barrier. She saw that her eyes were slightly lowered, and that her long eyelashes cast a layer of shadow over her eyes, making it so that Yuan Yue could not clearly see what her eyes were like at this moment!
"It's not enough to describe what it was like..."
Xiao Qi gritted her teeth as she spoke, but then she seemed to sense Yuan Yue's gaze on her, so she immediately adjusted her expression to make herself look more relaxed!
"I think... it must be. Look at the white bones at the gate, and you can guess it! All the adults and children were killed!"
Xiao Qi said while looking at Yuan Yue. Although the expression on her face was a lot more relaxed than before, the heaviness in her eyes could not be erased immediately!
Yuan Yue frowned slightly, but she still maintained her composure. She did not let Xiao Qi see that there was anything wrong with her!0
"Alas, I'm a little tired!"
Yuan Yue stretched out her arm and stretched her body lazily. Her eyes... were carefully sizing up the Xiao Qi in front of her! Xiao Qi's clothes and appearance were undoubtedly Xiao Qi's, but Yuan Yue always had a feeling of awkwardness. She always felt that... the way Xiao Qi spoke in front of her seemed to have changed. Was it because she really saw the scene of the city and felt moved, or... was there some other more terrifying possibility?
Ever since she came to the Realm of Gods, Yuan Yue had seen all kinds of storms, so... The fact that the man in front of her was not the man in front of her did not seem impossible to her.
"Alas, when we went into the sea, Zhaowen argued that the Spirit Power at the bottom of the sea was extremely abundant, and that there might be some treasure hidden in this city! But after coming down, he realized that the reason why there was so much Spirit Power in this sea area was actually because someone was using the Spirit Power to maintain the city. Was Zhaowen disappointed? He must have ridiculed you just now! "
Yuan Yue looked at Xiao Qi with a smile, and started to use Lee Zhaowen as a topic of conversation.
"That's right, he's so angry! He said that his efforts were in vain, so he came here for nothing! The water at the bottom of the sea was cold and had a fishy smell. It was really not worth it for him to soak in it for such a long time and still not get anything out of it! "
As Xiao Qi spoke, she could not help but laugh, as if she was thinking about the expression on Lee Zhaowen's face when he said these words. That expression... It was kind of gentle, really like the state he was in when he was thinking about his lover!
However, at this moment, Yuan Yue was 100% certain that the Xiao Qi in front of her... was definitely not the real Xiao Qi! However, she still did not know who was playing the role of Xiao Qi, and for what reason. Thus, at this moment, Yuan Yue remained calm even though she did not know the situation or the strength of the other party. She continued to chat with this fake "Xiao Qi" until Faang Cheng returned!
"It's an adventure. Others might not have discovered this ancient city, but we did. This could also be considered as a kind of predestined fate! It's pretty good!"
Yuan Yue continued to chat with Xiao Qi!
