45. Two Women Leaving the Pass

On the Otherworld side, it was early morning, and there was still a hint of chill in the air during this transition from spring to summer.

Lu Yao had just placed away a big package of firearms and walked out of the door with satisfaction. Men all like such toys.

He had thought that the two girls wouldn't have finished their secluded cultivation yet, but hearing some noise in the kitchen, he went over to see that Liao Qe was actually stewing meat.

The girl was dressed in a white tracksuit, bending over to break a piece of yam into large chunks and throwing them into the pot.

Lu Yao said with a surprised happiness, "You're finished with your seclusion? Have you entered meditation?"

Liao Qe turned around, her pretty face looking at him. Her almond-shaped eyes suddenly lit up, and her beautiful face gained a few more touches of composure.

Her breathing became unusually slow and extraordinarily even, making her seem very—calm, like a sleeping baby.
