Dragon’s Scale (II)

Hui Lan was comfortably crouched up beside the large window sill underneath the morning sunlight. Her gaze looked outside of the window at the sandy mountains in the distance.

When they had passed the desert on their way here, she had missed the entire landscape. The next thing she knew after she woke up was that they were already in Sha Yin.

…Sigh.

…Dragon's scale.

…It was the next ingredient to the cure.

…But this was the biggest mystery of all.

…Dragon's scale from the dragon tree.

…What on earth was a dragon tree!?

While Hui Lan was thinking to herself, she could hear someone's steady footsteps drawing nearer.

Hui Lan stopped thinking about the Dragon's scale and turned to face the newcomer.

Young master Hei casually walked inside her room with a tray of bowls.

"I brought you your breakfast."
