Ch.27 Deeply Weakened

Two days later (Seven days after the Soul-Bond)

Xiyu woke with an aching pain all over her. Even her vision seemed to be faltering. Yet, she had seven days left till her deadline. She calmed herself and sat cross-legged on the ice floor of her new bedroom. Just two days ago, Muxue Yan had assigned the three of them to their respective chambers.

Their companions had yet to be found, and their fates were still a mystery. She had related her description of the Minotaur-looking creatures to Muxue Yan, but all he did was shake his head and mention that the two were former disciples of his, Yamon and Anong. They did not speak the language of humans, but yet, they understood to a supreme level, how the mechanisms of the place worked and thus, were able to do what they could to segregate the team and send her and Dongyue to the floors below.

A few questions were still unanswered, appearing confusing to her.
