Carrying a heart full of excitement, Qingqing sped toward Chili Lake without a moment's rest, drawing countless gazes along the way. After all, a Qingluan belonged to the divine beast tier. Although Qingqing was still young, it was precisely this youthfulness that made many people harbor thoughts of capturing it.
At that moment, Qingqing's entire mind was focused on finding Chu Qinghuang; the people in hot pursuit behind paid no heed. Seeing the pursuers about to catch up, Qingqing sensed them suddenly accelerate and effortlessly shook them off.
Seeing Qingqing head in the direction of Chili Lake, those people wanted to give up, yet felt deeply reluctant—after all, a Qingluan was a rare sight. Steeling their hearts, a team mustered the courage to follow. Whether sensing something or due to the surrounding anomalies, all the holy beasts in the inner circle of the Dark Moon Ghost Forest had hidden away, not daring to show themselves. Qingqing thus flew flagrantly right over the sky of the Dark Moon Ghost Forest and into Chili Lake, without a single holy beast coming out to block the way.
