Chapter 884: Where Did You Get This Pendant?
Afraid that she wouldn’t be able to control herself, Chi Jiao steeled her heart and raised her hand to cover her flushed face. She hurriedly went to the next room to take a shower.
Chi Jiao removed her makeup and took a shower. She changed into cute pink bunny pajamas and went to Quan Jue’s room.
Quan Jue had calmed down from earlier. He had regained his usual cool and was sitting on the bed in his dark blue pajamas, waiting for Chi Jiao to come over.
She ran to Quan Jue in her slippers and opened her arms to let him carry her to the bed.
When Quan Jue carried Chi Jiao, he noticed the little heart on her neck.
Quan Jue’s attention was immediately focused on the little heart. He looked at her in confusion and asked, “Jiaojiao, where did you get this pendant? It looks quite special.”
Looking at the little heart, Quan Jue inexplicably felt that this thing was a little familiar.
This familiar feeling appeared very suddenly, making him feel baffled.
Chi Jiao crawled under Quan Jue’s blanket and leaned her head on his shoulder. “Brother Quan, I’ve encountered a lot of things during your absence these past few days. Tell me about what you found out in the Xuan Sect first, okay? It’ll take a long time for me to talk about what happened to me. You talk about She Qi first.”
“Alright.” Quan Jue nodded. “According to my investigation, we can now confirm that She Qi was the vice sect master of the Xuan Sect hundreds of years ago. At that time, Espers were divided into two factions. One side comprised righteous Espers, similar to the Xuan Sect. The other was evil Espers, who became bloodthirsty and cruel under the influence of the magnetic field. They were all locked up in the forest behind a barrier near White Cloud City.”
“Brother, did you just say White Cloud City?” Chi Jiao widened her eyes in surprise.
“Yes. Why? Do you also know this place called White Cloud City?” Quan Jue asked. Chi Jiao then told him about Xu Ye’s dream in detail. She said, “The woman who fell in love with She Qi is called Bai Wanxi. She’s the witch of the Bai family in White Cloud City and possesses an extremely powerful fire ability. I got hold of her diary from the black box. Not only that, but I was also sucked into the diary. In the diary, I was Bai Wanxi’s younger sister, Bai Jiao’er. You were also in there.”
With that, Chi Jiao told him about the black box, the diary, and the little heart.
Quan Jue listened seriously from the beginning to the end.
Only after Chi Jiao finished her story did he speak again. “The Xuan Sect said that when She Qi was in the sect, he was someone who would do anything to achieve his goals. And it was after he went to White Cloud City and returned that he became even more ferocious and gradually lost control. Perhaps the key to She Qi’s rage back then was Bai Wanxi.”
“Brother, I feel that Bai Wanxi... isn’t a bad person. Speaking of which, it’s strange. I don’t know why my emotions were swayed by Bai Wanxi. I keep feeling that I’ve personally experienced what Bai Wanxi recorded in the diary. It is very strange,” she muttered helplessly.
Chi Jiao couldn’t figure out if her heart ached for Bai Wanxi because the diary had that effect or because of her own personal reasons.
Seeing her helpless expression, Quan Jue hugged her shoulders tightly. “Don’t worry. I’ll enter the diary with you tomorrow. By then, everything will be clear.”
