Bai Yan’s eyelash started to quiver as soon as she’s closed them due to the intense rush of ecstasy that coursed through her veins as a result of the ill-behaving man’s effort. But the rush didn’t last for long because her state of mind also went into the same blank mode as before.

  ……


  Sure enough, Bai Yan’s consciousness was now standing in the same space that plagued her mind. Unlike usual though, this time it’s not a bloodstained battlefield, but rather a perfectly blue sky without a spec of cloud. Perhaps its due to her change of heart in wanting to dive deeper rather then avoid the issue. regardless of the reasoning, it’s now different.

  Looking around to scan her surroundings, Bai Yan soon found the main characters for this dream. It’s a young girl crouched into the grasses tending to a silvery fox. Based on the blood staining it’s fur, the little fella was obviously injured. And despite the kind gesture and smiling face from the human, the animal clearly didn’t take it well and growled in return.

  “Little fox, how can you growl at me when I’m trying to save you? If you don’t get your act together then I’m going to smack your bottom!”


  The young girl should’ve been around twelve to thirteen years old based on her appearance. As someone that’s still not matured enough to understand her actions, she huffs and puffs and returned with a stare of her own.

  Not to be taken lightly, the silvery fox proudly snorts at that threat and paid no heed to the pumping fist.

  ……


  Not far away, Bai Yan silently watches the silly interaction between the pair and soon realized this must be her and Di Cang’s first encounter in their former life. It’s too obvious. For one thing, that arrogant and overbearing attitude was one and the same. Even if the temperament spelled the man’s existence to the teeth because Bai Yan suddenly had the urge to toss that personality to the trash bin!

  “Here, if you take this medicinal pill then your injury will be healed. You should leave this place quickly once you’re able to move, it’s not good if others to find you.” The girl ignores the resistance of her patient and hands a beady little pill to the fox.

  But the little fella didn’t take the item, only staring at it with a wrinkle on the forehead as if contemplating something.

  “Yan’er,” a third voice cuts in from the air, causing the young girl to jerk up in a panic. In her flustered state, she immediately tossed the fox into a nearby cave followed by her medicine. Deed done; only then did she swing around to meet the oncoming man from the front.

  This should’ve been nothing special, but Bai Yan was now fully paying attention to this new arrival. She’s not sure either but that voice sounded vaguely familiar like it’s been heard somewhere.

  Wanting to dig deeper since she’s unable to see that face due to the man having his back turned to her, Bai Yan figured it’s time she moved closer to get a clearer look. It’s not known what happened or if something in the background caught the stranger’s attention, but right when she’s only a step away from getting a perfect look, the man swings around and catches her completely off guard. Then as if that wasn’t bad enough, a sudden stinging pain from her lower abdomen shakes her soul, shattering the entire image at the crucial moment!
