The call of the secret realm, the undercurrent of scheming
As dusk settled, the doors of the Ye Luoli doll shop gently opened, revealing Fairy Xinling standing inside, surrounded by a faint magical aura. Wang Mo, Chen Sisi, Shu Yan, and Jian Peng stood side by side, while Luo Li, Blue Peacock, and other fairies nestled beside their respective owners. The light of the contract scrolls shimmered faintly in their palms—the keys to the fairy realm.
"There are many uncertainties on this journey to the Fairy Realm." Xin Ling's voice was gentle but solemn. She raised her hand and a dazzling magic circle spread out on the ground. "The Books of Destiny of Floating Cloud Tower are intertwined. You must not only explore the prophecies of the Book of Destiny of Clover, but also be wary of the hidden forces in the Fairy Realm."
Jianpeng scratched his head, and Liangcai swayed on his shoulder: "Don't worry, Fairy Xinling! We can definitely handle it!"
Shu Yan adjusted his glasses, his expression calm: "We will act cautiously and will not act rashly."
Just as the group was about to step into the magic circle, Wen Zike, from the last row, suddenly rushed out from the street corner. Her small body was wrapped in a four-leaf clover skirt, and she was tightly clutching a clover doll in her arms. She was panting, her face flushed: "Wait! I want to go too! I want to go to Wonderland too!"
Wang Mo and the others were stunned. Chen Sisi squatted down and asked softly, "Coco, the fairyland is very dangerous. You are still too young."
"I'm not afraid!" Little Coco clenched her fists, the four-leaf clover mark on her wrist shimmering. "Clover said my magic can protect everyone! I'm going to find Big Sister!"
The clover doll suddenly opened its eyes, a flash of green light: "Her power is connected to prophecy. Taking her with you might bring unexpected opportunities."
Looking at the determination in Coco's eyes and then at the four-leaf clover scent surrounding Clover, Xin Ling pondered for a moment and then nodded: "Well, the trajectory of fate is unpredictable. Coco, you must promise me that you will keep up with everyone else."
Xiao Ke nodded vigorously, ran happily to Wang Mo's side, and tightly grabbed the hem of her clothes.
Meanwhile, atop a skyscraper on the other side of the city, Prince Minsk stood with his hands behind his back, his icy blue eyes coldly fixed on the direction of the doll shop. A sapphire at his fingertips glowed eerily, and a dark purple spell silently seeped into the ground, connecting with the magic circle leading to Wonderland.
"Going to Wonderland?" A cold smile curved his lips. "Perfect, saves me the trouble."
He thought of his fiancée far away in his homeland, of her expectant eyes, yet his own eyes remained utterly unmoved. More than the empty promise of marriage, the power of the Four-Leaf Clover Fairy, and the prophecy of "the highest power of man," were his true targets. He had already laid his traps, waiting for everyone to enter the fairy realm so he could exploit Wen Zike's naiveté and gradually seize that hidden power.
“Wen Zike…clover…” he murmured, his figure transforming into a streak of silver light, quietly following the fluctuations of the magic circle, “This journey to the fairyland is destined to be very interesting.”
The light from the magic circle grew increasingly dazzling, slowly engulfing everyone's figures. No one noticed the hidden silver light, nor did anyone know that this seemingly ordinary trip to the fairyland had already been observed by a pair of calculating eyes.
Meanwhile, Wen Lianyao, who was reviewing her lessons at home, suddenly paused, her pen poised. Gazing at the night sky outside the window, her heart pounded stronger, as if something important was quietly unfolding. She didn't know her younger sister had already embarked on her journey to the fairyland; she only felt that the aura of her elder sister was drawing ever closer.
