The ballads are like mist.
Faintly, as if coming from a place far, far away.
Xia Yun couldn't help but pause.
Little Shuan hurriedly waved his hand, saying: "Sister Yun, come quickly, Big Brother Xu really held back the toxic fog!"
Facing away from Xu Lai and Little Shuan, Xia Yun seemed oblivious, as if she hadn't heard the call.
Xu Lai noticed the anomaly and instantly moved to Xia Yun's side, only to see her silently shedding tears, staring blankly at the path they had come from.
Xu Lai followed Xia Yun's gaze.
In that direction.
Lies the Five Color Lake.
Xu Lai did not urge her but stopped Little Shuan from speaking, quietly waiting for Xia Yun to awaken.
About ten breaths later.
Xia Yun returned to her senses, instinctively wiping her eyes, choked up as she said: "Strange, why am I… why am I crying."
"What did you see?" Xu Lai asked.
"I didn't see anything, I just heard a ballad."
"What kind of ballad?"
"..."
