Lake shore.
Xia Chan was eating a pancake, and when she turned her head, she discovered that Sang Que had vanished into thin air, startling Xia Chan so much that her pancake fell to the ground.
The same went for Wan Biao, who had just shifted his gaze from the lake, turning around to find Sang Que gone. Just as he was about to ask Xia Chan, she suddenly picked up Xuan Yu, who was squatting nearby, and ran off quickly.
"Miss Xia Chan, where are you going?"
Xia Chan didn't answer, and Wan Biao was left puzzled. Not long after, he heard the sound of a donkey cart galloping away and watched as the Black Donkey, without any urging, pulled Xia Chan and Xuan Yu out of the village in a cloud of dust.
Wan Biao blinked blankly, not knowing what had happened, only feeling that the midday sun was chilling him, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.
