Xia Hongmian answered, her voice steady, without any fluctuation.
The eyes of the Stone Gate stared at Lin Baici. On the ground, a black mist began to spread, some of which transformed into claws that gripped Lin Baici's legs.
"Gender!"
...
In the corridor, the same voice echoed once more, but it only asked one question before faltering, silent for tens of seconds.
Lin Baici's questioning gaze turned to Xia Hongmian, the meaning was simple: Should I answer now, or wait until it asks all three questions before responding?
This Stone Gate was clearly a Taboo thing, akin to the guardian of a treasury.
If the answer was incorrect, an attack would undoubtedly follow.
As for how to answer, Lin Baici was quite confident, for according to Xia Hongmian's response, it seemed one simply had to state the opposite of the correct answer.
Xia Hongmian frowned, not responding to Lin Baici, as she too was uncertain about what was happening.
