Playful Banter

"How… what…" Duan Ke didn't know what to say and was at a loss for words.

Jing Luo though, didn't mind that and flew towards her. Duan Ke didn't move and let him embrace her, her expression still frozen the same.

"Don't worry, I really am here." Jing Luo spoke calmly in her ears.

In that moment, Duan Ke's eyes started tearing up and low sobs could also be heard.

~squeeze~

She wrapped her arms around Jing Luo as well and hugged him as hard as she could. She didn't want it all to be a dream. She didn't want him to be gone anymore and she would do anything to keep that from happening.

Lin Mu and Little Shrubby watched the tearful reunion from the distance silently. 

'I'll give them some time.' Lin Mu thought as he looked behind Duan Ke.

When she had disabled the barrier that was hiding her, she had also revealed the rest of the area that was hidden along with her. Lin Mu could now see the rest of the area of the War Castle.
