Wang Miaomiao was also extremely excited. She clenched her fingers tightly, "I must cultivate diligently and strive to catch up with you as soon as possible!"
A hint of a smile appeared in Bai Ying's eyes, but she still said cautiously, "There are many demonic beasts here, we still need to be careful of their attacks!"
However, before the demonic beast Bai Ying mentioned appeared, the flow of time suddenly returned to normal, as if they had never entered any sacred cultivation ground, and this place became the same as the outside.
