At that moment, an idea suddenly sprang into Liu Jie's head.
"Can it be that the Chief Guard is waiting for me here?"
However, he cast this idea aside as soon as he thought of it.
Given the current active period of this dimensional rift, the Chief Guard would have to deal with many things every day. How would she have been able to make time to wait for him?
Just as Liu Jie looked at the black-robed, black-veiled Chief Guard, she seemed to sense his gaze and turned her head to look toward him.
Despite the vast distance between them, Liu Jie still saw the Chief Guard's pitch-black eyes the moment she turned around.
Under the gaze of that pair of pitch-black eyes, Liu Jie suddenly felt a trace of indescribable pressure.
He was like a fish leaving the water under a final endless, starless night that felt like it would be sealed off by the endless night, doomed to sink forever.
