REBIRTH OF THE QUEEN

"I\'m sleepy," she said walking away with one hand still holding a meat skewer.

"Are you planning on chewing that meat while sleeping?" said Gu Yi who saw his wife\'s behavior.

​​

As soon as Fu Xie Lan\'s steps stopped, she just realized that the meat was still in her grasp.

Again, she cursed herself. Why is it? She\'s always been doing useless things and ended up feeling embarrassed.

"None of your business," replied Fu Xie Lan reluctantly putting down the meat. Not without reason, she answered it like that because if she were to put it down, it would make her even more embarrassed.

The girl continued on her way towards Hao regardless of the perverted man who managed to make her embarrassed.

Gu Yi chuckled at the girl\'s behavior. He then got up and walked towards the outside of the cave.

Silence returned to the cave, only the flames and the rustling of leaves in the wind came from outside.

Fu Xie Lan, who had closed her eyes, opened them slowly. The man who was with her was no longer seen. Only the shadow of the dim bonfire can be seen on the cave wall.

\'Where he goes?\'

Fu Xie Lan got up from her position, the meat she had previously placed next to her was now cold.

To be honest, she was a little curious about the man. Somehow being around him made her feel a little bit safe? Even though, it was the first time they had met.

Hao was still shuffling and motionless, made Fu Xie Lan look at him with pity. Judging from the injuries that covered his entire body. Perhaps, Hao couldn\'t hold on much longer.

She had to come back soon, for Hao\'s sake.

Fu Xie Lan stepped past the bonfire and approached the mouth of the cave. She intended to find the man and finish the thing she wanted to ask for a long time.

When passing through the mouth of the cave she seemed to pierce a very smooth membrane, wanting to make sure the strange thing she felt Fu Xie Lan stepped back in and then immediately came out. She did it several times and it turned out to be true, there was indeed a layer resembling an invisible membrane that separated the inner and outer regions of the cave. But, why didn\'t she feel anything before?

Not wanting to think for long, Fu Xie Lan left the mouth of the cave to look for the man. A faint frown appeared on her forehead when she couldn\'t find the perverted man anywhere.

\'Where he goes?\'

\'Or has he returned to his own house?\'

Fu Xie Lan\'s monologue to herself. She guessed maybe the man had returned to where he came from.

Her eyes refuse to close, keeping her awake, the night breeze swaying her hair, which she just let loose as she stepped closer to the rock, where she had previously sat with Hao. Looked back at the sparkling sea.

Sitting alone enjoying the night air.

However, it only lasted a few minutes when she sensed that several pairs of eyes were watching her in the dark.

Instantly she put on an alert attitude. The girl quietly activated the power of her eyes, stood up straight then turned her body to allow her to see what creatures were around her.

\'It\'s just a bat\' she thought when she saw a small creature hanging from a tree. All the alertness that she did before she dispelled and sat back down without the slightest feeling of fear.

Her eyes that had been closed enjoying the night breeze suddenly opened, her memories spinning when she was still at the waterfall. What happened while she was training? She also felt her body become so light after the practice.

How about Wan Lie? Elder Bao and that old man?

Fu Xie Lan wanted to go back to the waterfall to train, but she couldn\'t bear to leave Hao alone with such injuries, especially now that she didn\'t know which part of the Dark Zore she was in. As far as her eyes could see when activating her eye power, she didn\'t see any shadows of a waterfall. Just a dense forest. Now that she understood a little, the power of her eyes was only able to see at a certain distance.

The rustle of dry leaves coming from the side made her turn her head, alert again.

A familiar man entered her view, Fu Xie Lan reflexively breathed a sigh of relief because the man she had been looking for had now appeared and was walking towards her.

"Waiting for me?" said Gu Yi approaching Fu Xie Lan.

"Stop right there," Fu Xie Lan ordered.

"...." Gu Yi

"Blood, you are reek of blood," said Fu Xie Lan with one hand covering her nose.

To be honest, she hated the smell of blood, but what could she do? During her life before coming to this world, her work in the organization always involved blood, be it the blood of humans or animals that became her experiments. And the previous incident at the waterfall, seeing the corpses of magical beasts with blood splattered everywhere made her feel a little nauseous until now. If only she could, she wanted desperately to avoid the smell of blood.

Gu Yi who heard Fu Xie Lan\'s response raised his eyebrows then chuckled.

"All right, all right," he said then took a few steps back.

"Why sit outside? This place is very dangerous at night."

"I\'m looking for... No, I mean, I can\'t sleep."

"You mean, looking for me?" Gu Yi again teased Fu Xie Lan.

"Forget it, I have a few questions for you," the girl replied turning her head away.

"Hmm?"

"I want to go back."

"Then?"

"How? While my time in this place is still very long. I can\'t go back until the time I\'ve set before comes."

Yes, another risk when entering the Dark Zore is that her soul will continue to be in that place until the time runs out, no matter what. However, as a reward, if one managed to survive, one would become stronger when utilizing the mana in that place.

Fu Xie Lan felt that everything was comparable, there would be no one who would become strong in an easy way. Of course, she had to go through several processes even if it would endanger her life.

Her mind suddenly worked fast, she was curious, what kind of danger came to her while she was still training at the waterfall? Because during that time, she never felt anything. Was it because Hao was protecting her or was it because of that man

"I know, I\'m very handsome," said Gu Yi when he saw Fu Xie Lan who a few seconds ago turned her face away now turned to look at him intently.

"Yes, yes, what a handsome pervert master," Fu Xie Lan replied in a mocking tone.

"So does this handsome pervert Master know how I can return without waiting for my time to run out?"

"Um, maybe,"

"How?"

"Maybe like kissing me first?"

"What a pervert," said Fu Xie Lan, rolling her eyes in embarrassment.

"Do you want it or not?" Gu Yi said with such a seductive gaze, but unfortunately, now Fu Xie Lan was not affected at all.

"Forget it."

Fu Xie Lan then stood up and walked into the cave.

"Tomorrow, we\'ll be back."

Fu Xie Lan kept on walking without slowing down in the slightest when her senses caught the man\'s voice. The corners of her lips lifted into a small smile without her noticing.
