The Blue Sky

Deng Wu let Little Dragon stay in control as they rushed up the Stairs of Hope, all of them running to see the rays of the sun once more; to see the endless skies and the heavens above.

Although they all missed the endless sky and despite Xu Piao wishing to see what it was like, none of the members of the group were feeling particularly thrilled or happy at the moment.

Xie Lan had died as she jumped in front of Xu Piao, saving his life at the last moment. All of them left behind Hui Yue within the dark caves. None of them knew how he would manage to escape, but none of them truly felt that their friend would die.

Each step they took on the stairs felt heavy, feeling as though they were missing something important. Only Wang Ju Long seemed to have steeled her determination. She gritted her teeth as she put power behind her steps, rushing so fast that she even overtook Deng Wu.
