She walked on in silence for what seemed like an eternity until there were no more steps in front of her, at which point Shi Lan finally looked up.
What came into view was an open space paved with large stones, and a woman and a handsome man standing two steps away, who had led the group to the mountain gate.
When the woman saw Shi Lan, a smile appeared on her lips. She turned to the man and said, "Senior Brother Luo, I won again this time."
Senior Brother Luo smiled and looked at the woman, saying, "You've won. You're in charge tonight."

Senior Brother Luo knew her temperament well. Seeing that her expression was about to change, he quickly stepped forward and said, "Alright, Junior Sister Yuan, the Foreign Affairs Hall should take over this place from now on. Qingyan will be left alone in the cave. Let's hurry back."
