The sound of dripping water echoed as Feng Yuan looked ahead and murmured softly,
"Is it really that thing... But, who is it this time?"
He gently touched Xiao Ji's head, sensing its anxiety. After a moment's thought, Feng Yuan smiled slightly and picked it up.

Although holding the eagle-shaped Xiao Ji was somewhat inconvenient, it was not a big problem for Feng Yuan.
