"What is that? Is that a rabbit?!"
The young man's excited shout echoed through the tunnel, his eyes gleaming with fascination. Without thinking, he moved forward, reaching out—
Only for his sister to stop him.
She caught his arm firmly, her gaze still locked onto Wen Ran's unmoving figure. Her brows furrowed, her mind working through the situation. Who was this person?
His aura was powerful, yet refined. Unlike the oppressive and sinister presence of that crimson pillar that had shattered their sky, his energy felt noble, controlled—different. She couldn't understand why a stranger was in their secret passage or why he had chosen this place to meditate. And the rabbit… it was clearly connected to him.
Her temples throbbed.
Too many things had changed today. First, their village was exposed. Then, invaders arrived. And now—this. This unknown white-haired youth sitting calmly at their only exit.
Another headache to deal with.
