Liang Hui stood before the lake, gazing at the emerald water, feeling much more at peace.
The gentle breeze brushed by, rustling his sleeves, adding a touch of insouciance to the air.
At this moment, the Azure Sea Cave Master and the two children stood quietly in place, not daring to make the slightest move.
He couldn't tell how much time had passed.
The tall figure slowly turned around.
With a wave of his hand, the Mystic Tortoise floated down in front of the girl.
"Take it, consider it a reward for showing the way."
Ah Jiao stared blankly at the Mystic Tortoise before her, her gaze flickering with struggle before she turned to look at the boy by her side.
She opened her mouth, about to speak.
"Ah Jiao, do not delay in accepting the Sacred Worm bestowed by His Majesty," the elder scolded sharply, cutting off the words the girl was about to say.
In that moment, a resolute light shone in the girl's eyes.
