77 Breakthrough

Chu Liuyue stared at the broken door dumbfoundedly. Just now… All I did was create a small ripple in the lake. Where did the explosive power come from?!

At this moment, a figure dashed in from outside. “Yue’er!”

Chu Liuyue instinctively followed the voice. It was Rong Xiu.

He had clearly rushed over when he heard the door breaking.

A thought flashed across her mind. My room is quite a distance from here; how did he rush over so quickly?

Rong Xiu glanced at the door before he hurried in. “Are you okay? What happened?” He realized that Chu Liuyue was okay the instant he stepped in. He was relieved, but he could not put his mind at ease.

Chu Liuyue paused. His usually lazy voice had hints of anxiety.

Upon closer inspection, one could see an indiscernible look of worry between his eyes. This was rare for Rong Xiu, who usually kept a poker face.

Rong Xiu glanced at Xue Xue.

Xue Xue stiffened immediately. It roared deeply and obediently stepped aside, lying on the floor.

Chu Liuyue rubbed its head and looked at Rong Xiu. “Your Highness, how did you get here so quickly?” she asked strangely.

Xue Xue was a high-level fiend, and it was from the lion family, so it traveled fast. It must have started to make its way here when it heard the commotion, but it still lagged behind Rong Xiu.

“… Could it be that you were nearby?”

Rong Xiu could not help but laugh when he saw the girl’s gaze turn suspicious towards him. He pinched her face. “Don’t go imagining things. I was just taking a stroll since I couldn’t sleep. I headed over when I heard the commotion.”

Chu Liuyue pulled his hand away, but she did not believe it.

Such a coincidence? Besides, even if you were taking a walk nearby, I still remember how fast you moved when you came over. This sickly Prince Li is masterful at hiding things…

Chu Liuyue did not continue asking and instead said, “Your Highness, it was a false alarm. Please, go back and rest.”
