At night, Bai E came to a familiar spot, where Yue Ying's figure was also hidden within familiar shadows.
Apart from Bai E, no one else could detect Yue Ying's presence at this location; such was the unspoken understanding that had somehow developed between them.
"You came back yesterday?" Yue Ying asked gently.
Her tone was even, as if it were just an ordinary question.
But after spending time together, Bai E had gradually come to understand the personality of this elf lady.
In reality, it was a displeased query—having returned yesterday, why hadn't he come over?
"Last night, I went to fight a demon."
"A demon?" Yue Ying's gaze grew concentrated, recalling the unusual fluctuation she had sensed last night.
The disturbance had originated from quite a distance, and she hadn't been interested in investigating it at the time, but she hadn't expected it to be related to Bai E.
