Bai Ye patted my back, gesturing me to let go. "He's here for Twin Stars," he said. "The surge of spiritual power when you broke the seal was too strong. He must've felt it all the way from the main peak."
I buried my face into his shoulder, not willing to move away. "I don't want to see him," I sniffled. "Not until you promise to never leave me. Not until you promise to stop treating your life so lightly like this."
For the first time today, I heard a small chuckle. "He's capable of coming inside himself if you don't go see him … and I can't help you right now like this. I'm afraid you don't have much choice."
Qing-er has finally grown out of that timid and innocent girl now—how could she not, after such a hard journey of self-discovery? The stage will truly be hers from here on :) Watch her save Bai Ye and tame the wild power of Twin Stars! (hint: those swords aren't done bringing them surprises yet…)
