BXBX NOVEL Chapter 302.2 - Why Do You Seem To Look So Sad
Lou Jun Yao’s gaze glinted sharply, and his long fingers slowly went to pick that thing up by its corner.
Several of the others could not help but turn their eyes over to look, and they saw that it was a thin and pointed leaf, with a sharp jagged edge at its tip. The leaf felt cold in his hand, like it was actually a thin layer of ice.
Lou Jun Yao then rubbed the leaf between his fingertips and discovered that his fingers became wet, like the leaf had been covered in real ice that melts when exposed to heat. But the strange thing was that the leaf merely released a small amount of water, and did not look like it had melted in the slightest.
“Are you able to find out anything with this?” Lou Jun Yao opened his mouth to ask as he handed the leaf over to the little beast.
“It looks very familiar. I’m sure I have seen this before.” Little Monster studied it carefully and then went on to say slowly, the expression on his face looking a little helpless. “But, I am unable to recall right now.”
Lou Jun Yao nodded slightly. “It’s alright. We will find that place in the end. Take your time to think.”
They were furthest ahead and had managed to leave all the other people far far behind them, hence they were temporarily not in any imminent danger.
But right at that moment, something behind them seemed to be silently stirring.

“Little one, you’ve been a little more well behaved in the past two days.”
The man’s voice held a sliver of mirth as it rang out slowly and Qing Yu in the pool who had her eyes closed while resting then opened when she heard those words. She looked at him expressionlessly and said: “What a free and idle life you lead, to be able to come visit me everyday.”
“It is only natural that I show the little pet I brought back personally a little more concern.” Lian Shi’s expression was tender, seemingly not affected in the least by the young lady’s cold and icy demeanor.
“I have really troubled you then.” A corner of Qing Yu’s mouth turned up, her voice tinged with a hint of sarcasm as she turned her head away from the man, like she was not keen in seeing the man at all.
“You don’t have to feel bad.” Lian Shi said as he took a couple of steps forward. “I came here today to let you see something.”
When his voice fell, his long fingers started to wave slightly in the air for a moment and a large crystalline screen came to appear before Qing Yu.
“Argh~~~”
“They are all alive! They are still alive! !”
“Quick! Run.....!”
Qing Yu had her head turned away and did not notice what the man was doing at all, but she was attracted by the sound of voices that suddenly rang out. Her face immediately froze in shock, when she turned her head around to look.
