It was only on his way to the location that Zhou Cui sensed the alarm from the family jade pendant.
The faint vibration of the pendant sent a jolt of urgency through him, and he quickened his pace.
If he had been even a second slower, Zhou Mei and the others might have perished without his knowledge.
The pendant, a relic of their family's protective magic, worked almost like modern technology, allowing Zhou Cui to lock onto Zhou Mei's location with pinpoint accuracy.
This timely intervention had saved them from disaster.
"Meimei, take care of yourself," Zhou Cui said, his voice tinged with reluctance as he prepared to leave. "I have something urgent to attend to."
He gave his sister one last smile, his eyes filled with unspoken concern, before transforming into a glittering ray of light and shooting into the clouds.
CRACKLE!!!
