He left so quickly that anyone who didn't know better would think there was a bottomless abyss ahead.
Following the direction Yueyang had indicated, a large cave indeed appeared before us.
Yu Wanwan peered out from the cave entrance. The cave was quiet, and it seemed as if the elder was not home.
However, the cave is very large, and you can't see the whole thing at a glance. Since we're already here, we should at least call out to confirm.
Thinking of this, Yu Wanwan cleared her throat and called out softly, "Excuse me, is anyone home?"
There was no response from inside the cave.
Yu Wanwan had no choice but to raise her voice: "Elder Qinglu."
"Why is no one answering? Could it be that they're really not here?" Yu Wanwan muttered.
I should have called Yueyang earlier. The elder isn't here today, otherwise I'd have to climb the mountain again.
Yu Wanwan refused to give up, snorted, and simply crossed her legs and sat down on the ground.
After waiting for a while, all that could be heard was the cawing of birds flying by; there wasn't even a trace of a dragon.
Should we call out again? Maybe the cave is big and her voice is soft, so she didn't hear us.
Yu Wanwan stood up, cupped her hands in a trumpet shape and placed them near her mouth, focusing her energy in her lower abdomen.
"Qing Dynasty Law—"
Perhaps it was the thought of climbing the mountain and being bullied that made Yu Wanwan a little angry. With this anger, her voice was particularly loud this time, but before she could say the word "elder," a thumping sound came from inside the cave.
It sounded like some bamboo product had fallen to the ground. It seemed to have fallen quite a height, bounced a few times, and made several thuds before finally stopping.
The cave was spacious and empty, making the sound all the more loud and abrupt.
Yu Wanwan froze on the spot, standing stiffly at the door, too afraid to move.
Oh no, could it be that she woke someone up while they were sleeping and startled them?
I should have kept my voice down.
Yu Wanwan stood at the entrance of the cave, having already planned to apologize properly and admit her mistake later, hoping that the elders of the dragon clan would not be angry.
They didn't have to wait long before a person came out of the cave.
Yu Wanwan slowly raised her head, while Qinglu looked down at her.
"What are you doing here?" His voice was low and soft, and his face was expressionless. Yu Wanwan felt that his mood was a little strange, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
She felt a little uneasy.
Is this what it feels like to be targeted by the head of the teaching department, as Yueyang described?
