'Is it safe? What are your thoughts, Yue?' Wang Xiao inquired, pausing in his tracks but not making any move to return towards Aurora.
The unexpected turn of events left him disoriented—instead of hostility, he found himself lost in a maze and seemingly un-hostile interactions.
He sought Yin Yue's advice, feeling as though he was navigating through a maze whose exits kept shifting.
Yin Yue's response came with a note of caution. [Safe? No... But you should go and listen to her. At least she doesn't seem in the mood to harm you. Just try to keep your tongue in check; sometimes your words can be quite sharp. Not to mention, if she had wanted to kill you, she could have easily sicced that dragon on you by now.]
Wang Xiao's eyes twitched in annoyance.
Was today simply not his day?
He couldn't say for sure.
What he did know, however, was that he needed answers!
