Chapter 324 - The Anchor of the Array (1/2)

While Jing Yi was already fearing for his fiance's sanity a certain dragon king wasn't that desperate yet. It hadn't even been a day and disregarding that first time of shock he was quite calm about all this. His beloved was just locked in some other dimension. How difficult could it be to get him out? He only had to find out how to open the dimension again.

Since the old geezer he had wanted to ask wasn't in the Yun Zou Sect anymore and his own master didn't know anything about that array, he could only turn to the next best person for this job.

As fast as he could he returned to the Leyuan region where the secret realm had opened. As for the task of notifying the sect master about the things that had happened … That task was long forgotten.

Qiu Ling didn't go back to his human master when he returned and instead landed behind a group of trees, his gaze locking onto his target.

An Bai smiled wryly. ”Your Majesty.” He had come over to the human realm's Hei Dian Sect with Qiang Wei just to have to journey to another place immediately. He didn't mind complying with his king's orders but … he was a scholar, not a warrior. This kind of task, why couldn't it be left to people like Qiang Wei and Fu Heng?

”You come here.” Qiu Ling grabbed An Bai's shoulder and unceremoniously dragged him toward the array without caring for An Bai's uncomfortable expression.

At least he remembered to hide his figure from the disciples although at least Zhangsun Xun Yi could perceive that they had guests.

Qiu Ling didn't care. He pointed at the array before turning to An Bai. ”Figure that out.”

An Bai's brows slightly shifted. ”Your Majesty's meaning is …?”

”Look at it and tell me how to open it. It's something the humans made so I have no idea how it works.” He wasn't embarrassed at all to admit that. He didn't know about human arrays. What was the big deal?

An Bai looked at his king's face and sincerely prayed that he would marry the Son of Heaven soon. Only a young gentleman like him could turn this beast into a decent person. Ah, he really missed those conversations he had had with him back then. Unfortunately, he had been banned from getting close to him for the rest of his life.

Qiu Ling furrowed his brow when An Bai didn't move. ”What? Don't tell me all those books you read were for nothing. You can't even solve this?”

An Bai told himself not to condescend to his king's level. If he did, he would certainly lose. He didn't have enough practice in being shameless to contend with him. Instead, he turned around and observed the glowing lines on the ground.
