Suddenly seeing Lu Wuxiu, Yan Baibai was so excited that she wanted to call him, but she found that she couldn't open her mouth just like before.
"Host, don't waste your energy." The system's voice sounded again in Yan Baibai's mind: "There is no host in this illusion now. The host can only attach to a certain object."
"System, the little boy I just saw was Lu Wuxiu, right?" Yan Baibai asked.
"Yes, host." The system's tone became a little excited: "According to the laws of time flow in the illusion, I think I know how you, host, should get out."
"Tell me about it quickly." Yan Baibai himself didn't understand it, but he wanted to hear the system's analysis.
"If my analysis is correct, the host doesn't need to do anything dangerous to end this secret realm." The illusion posed no danger to anyone entering it. Yan Baibai could sense this herself. The system continued, "Host, all you need to do is start from Lu Wuxiu's perspective, grow with him, and then enter the demon world and the secret realm."
"When the time progress in the illusion is consistent with the time progress in reality, I think the host and Lu Wuxiu will be able to get out."
Yan Baibai did agree with the system's statement. After all, from her perspective when she was possessed by the Duqing Lotus, everything she saw in the illusion should be real. This secret realm would not create false plots. In other words, when the time in the illusion coincided with that in reality, the two would leave the secret realm.
The system chatted with Yan Baibai for a while before going back to sleep. Yan Baibai turned her attention back to the outside world and realized that the knocking sounds in the mine had stopped at some point. Her vision turned completely dark again.
After Yan Baibai realized that there was no one around her, she began to observe her situation. She tried to move her hands and feet, and this time she could feel that she could move, unlike the Du Qinglian last time, which was a dead object.
Yan Baibai looked down at her hands, but could only see a ball of pitch-black mist. She tried to look around again and found that her vision could rotate 360° without any obstruction, and there was no restriction from the human "neck" at all.
Seeing this, Yan Baibai couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Well, it's not a human this time either.
Yan Baibai’s current state is indeed not a human, but a ball of black mist, and he can move freely throughout the entire mine.
After holding back for too long while crossing the Lotus of Love, Yan Baibai, upon discovering that he could move freely, swam around the entire mine in retaliation. To be more precise, he "floated" around. Yan Baibai couldn't help but guess that he was now a little ghost in the mine. When passing by the torches embedded in the side of the mine tunnel, the flames on the torches flickered as if blown by the wind.
——
Now that she could move freely, Yan Baibai naturally wanted to look for Lu Wuxiu. Fortunately, she was in her current state and could feel where the place with the most breath in the mine was. At such a quiet time, the place with the most breath was naturally where the miners slept.
Yan Baibai continued to fly upwards, and when she saw the moonlight, she finally arrived at her destination.
By the moonlight, Yan Baibai finally got a clear look at the faces of the workers who were fast asleep. They were young and old, male and female, tall and short. Besides their pale skin from years of lack of sunlight and their bony build, they had one striking thing in common.
——They all had half-demon tattoos on their faces.
Lu Wuxiu was also a half-demon, and Yan Baibai wasn't too surprised by this. Like a ghost, she began to hover over the dark mass of half-demons, who used the sky as their mat and the ground as their blanket.
Excluding adults and women, her attention was only focused on children, because at this time, Lu Wuxiu was still a child.
After checking most of the children, the only thing that made Yan Baibai happy was that none of the children had half-demon tattoos on their faces. Yan Baibai crossed a large stretch of flat ground and found no familiar faces among the children sleeping on the ground.
Yan Baibai began to get anxious, then suddenly remembered Lu Wuxiu's solitary personality. He thought he probably didn't sleep with everyone else, but was probably curled up in some deserted corner. The more Yan Baibai thought about it, the more likely it seemed, so he began to search for him in less crowded areas.
Yan Baibai had just wandered around a few quiet but sleepable corners when she heard some movement not far away. She thought it was Lu Wuxiu, so she flew over quickly.
Unfortunately, Lu Wuxiu didn't see it, but two naked figures entangled together came into her sight, followed by the woman's rapid breathing and the man's unbearable roar. Yan Baibai didn't expect to encounter such a thing. She rolled her eyes silently and turned to leave. When she was about to leave here, she heard the conversation of two people behind her.
"Lian Ji is trying so hard, it seems like you really want to have another child." This was a man's voice: "Aren't you afraid that your son will be sad?"
"Don't mention that loser, he's a bummer." This was a woman's voice. Yan Baibai felt somewhat familiar with this voice. She recalled for a moment and found that this voice overlapped with the voice of the woman who scolded Lu Wuxiu.
It turned out that Lu Wuxiu's mother was called Lian Ji, but it could be seen that she really disliked Lu Wuxiu as a child.
"Hahahaha, you're truly cruel. You don't even look like a mother at all!" The man laughed wildly for a moment, then his tone turned subdued. "But you're also right. With Lian Ji's looks, as long as she can give birth to a human being, she'll definitely be able to live a decent life after she's released."
"If I remember correctly, that kid's biological father should be the half-demon with the least demonic features in the mine."
