Just as her silver chopsticks were about to touch the pastry, Feng Qingyun's words, slightly anxious and solemn, were like a thunderclap piercing the silent night sky.
It exploded in her ear without warning, instantly shattering the peaceful and pleasant atmosphere.
Qin Qianluo's movements suddenly froze, as if time had stopped at that moment.
Her expression, which had been focused on the food and radiating joy and enjoyment, was instantly replaced by astonishment.
A look of utter bewilderment appeared on his face, as if he had been frozen in place.
She slowly put down the silver chopsticks in her hand, her movements slow and mechanical, as if every joint had lost its former agility and coordination.
Her eyes widened slightly, and her once clear and bright eyes, like a spring, were instantly filled with surprise and disbelief.
It was as if she had heard news that could completely upend her world.
She subconsciously lowered her head slightly and murmured, "You mean, the protection mechanism has disappeared?"
At this moment, Feng Qingyun sat quietly on the ground of the space, her face, which was always full of lively smiles, as bright and radiant as the warm spring sun.
Her small face, which could dispel all gloom, was now filled with a solemn expression, as if it were shrouded in a thick and oppressive gloom, without a trace of sunlight.
She frowned deeply, her two delicate eyebrows, like willow leaves, almost knotted together, as if locking away endless worries and anxieties.
Her eyes were full of worry and anxiety, as if they held endless unspoken thoughts, like a deep, dark pool that was impossible to fathom.
She took a deep breath, the breath feeling as heavy as lead, causing her chest to rise and fall slightly.
She slowly replied, "Yes, Luo Bao. Last night when you were at Ye Yunyao's residence, I sensed an extremely strange and eerie fluctuation."
The ripples came without warning, like strange ripples suddenly spreading across a calm lake surface without any external interference.
At that time, my only concern was your safety, so I had to suppress the overwhelming doubts and worries that welled up inside me.
She paused slightly, a hint of self-reproach and regret flashing in her eyes. That self-reproach was like a sharp blade, piercing her heart.
She gently bit her lip, which turned slightly white from the force, and continued, "Only after you finally got home safely did my heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settle down a little."
But then, a strong sense of unease welled up inside me, prompting me to immediately conduct a comprehensive and detailed examination of all the mechanisms in the space.
I meticulously examined every corner and every tiny crack, leaving no stone unturned in checking for any possible anomalies.
The protective mechanisms that have been guarding you have vanished without a trace, disappearing inexplicably.
It was as if it had never existed, leaving no trace whatsoever, not even the slightest clue.
After Feng Qingyun finished speaking, she looked at Qin Qianluo on the light screen with worry and concern in her eyes.
The anxiety in their eyes, like the dark clouds before a storm, weighed heavily on their hearts, making it hard to breathe.
When Qin Qianluo first heard Feng Qingyun announce the disappearance of the protection mechanism, she was somewhat stunned, but this stunned moment was as fleeting as a shooting star across the night sky.
In a short while, she quickly regained her composure, her expression returning to its usual calm, as if the shock she had just experienced had never occurred.
She quickly sorted through the possible reasons behind this anomaly in her mind. Everything in this world has its cause and effect logic, and the disappearance of the protection mechanism is by no means accidental.
Firstly, it is highly likely that Minister Ye's residence contains some strange and unusual items of unknown origin.
These items may have disturbed the space's originally stable and orderly magnetic field, which operated as precisely as a clockwork mechanism.
The disturbance of the magnetic field is very likely the culprit that caused such an inexplicable change in the protective mechanism.
Secondly, since Feng Qingyun has been with her, she has experienced several wonderful and crucial upgrades.
Each upgrade is like Feng Qingyun's metamorphosis from a cocoon to a butterfly, accompanied by a series of subtle and unique changes in the various mechanisms within the space.
Looking back, the various signs before the upgrade, like pieces of a puzzle, gradually pieced together a clear picture in Qin Qianluo's mind.
The sudden disappearance of this protection mechanism suggests that it may be a significant sign that Feng Qingyun is about to undergo a new round of upgrades.
Each upgrade of Feng Qingyun is accompanied by a unique transformation of the spatial mechanism, which is like a mysterious and sacred ritual that proclaims Feng Qingyun's growth and evolution.
Just as Qin Qianluo was quickly considering these possibilities in her mind.
Upon hearing this news, Su Jinyun felt as if she had been struck by a heavy hammer, the impact of which seemed to shatter her soul.
Her heart suddenly tightened, as if a cold and powerful invisible hand had instantly gripped her heart, causing her a suffocating pain.
She had a profound understanding of the importance of that protective mechanism to Qin Qianluo.
