Under immense pressure, the village chief seemed to be struck by lightning, "Bai Zanhe, that girl has come back."
"What has she come back for?" I couldn't help blurting out, feeling an indescribable sense of crisis.
Seeing my expression, the village chief also grew tense, "She said she doesn't want any more girls in the village to be chosen as the Maiden of Luohua Cave, so she has decided to come back... to fulfill her duty... to marry the Dragon God."
"With her hatred for you and your son, do you think that's likely?"
Yu Longting saw me shivering slightly from the cold wind.
He took off his outer robe and draped it over me.
Immediately, my chilled body was wrapped in warmth, "Thank you."
"Is there a problem with Bai Zanhe? Does she mean harm to the village?" The village chief seemed to recall something, his face turning dark all at once.
Though I knew there was little hope, I still harbored a sliver of luck, "Has Sister Zanhe gone to the island?"
