Bai Ruxue ran out of the courtyard.
Xiao Qing chased after her, but her sister's Realm was simply too high. Soon, she vanished from sight.
Walking through Shiqiao Village, Bai Ruxue looked at her surroundings. The more she saw, the more familiar it all felt.
Without realizing it, Bai Ruxue found herself in front of the courtyard of Shiqiao Village's late old chief.
She pushed open the wicker gate and stepped inside. Reaching out, she wiped a hand across the windowsill, which was already covered in a thick layer of dust.
Leaving the courtyard, Bai Ruxue continued to wander aimlessly.
After some time, Bai Ruxue came to a stop before a grave.
"Tomb of Wang Can—Clerk of Qingshan County, Chief of Shiqiao Village."
"Tomb of Chen Hong—Wife of Wang Can."
Seeing the familiar names, a dull ache throbbed in Bai Ruxue's head again, and a pang of sorrow arose in her heart.
'I know them.'
But...
'I've forgotten them...'
'I've even forgotten a very, very important name.'
