"Chengcheng?" Qu Tan'er couldn't hold back any longer and called out, "Is something the matter?"
"It's nothing. I saw my master..." From down in the well, Mo Liancheng's slightly husky voice emerged, tinged with an unusual emotion that seemed partly excitement and partly suppression.
Yet that single sentence also steadied Qu Tan'er's heart.
Such emotions were normal.

In such times, complacency was forbidden.
Behind her, footsteps approached...
Suddenly, Qu Tan'er opened her Heavenly Eye and saw a person hastily entering the courtyard—it was Ouyang Chong. She quickly glanced at the dry well, unsure of the person's condition inside, but could she faintly hear the sound of chains clashing? Could it be that Chengcheng's master was shackled?
If that were indeed the case, Chengcheng wouldn't be able to come out anytime soon.
