Chapter 120: Is Everything the Princess Said True?
Guided by the signal flare, Li Mingjue quickly found Qi Yu and Kong Ran.
A tall and a short figure were standing in front of an ancient tree, their eyes shining with light at the sight of the person coming to rescue them.
As she watched him approaching, Qi Yu suddenly felt a surge of grievance within her heart.
She didn’t know what bad karma she had accrued, dragging a little monk through the deep forest for a whole day.
Moreover, she had to be constantly on guard against the appearance of that mysterious person.
Li Mingjue walked up to her, extended his hand, and comforted her, "Don’t be afraid, I’m here."
Qi Yu sniffled, handed over the little monk to Liao Fan, and without hesitation, took Li Mingjue’s hand.
Holding his warm palm, her heart finally settled back in place, steady and secure.
The group walked back the way they came for nearly an hour before returning to the temple.
Seeing that they had returned safely, the worried look on the abbot’s face finally dissipated, and due to his advanced age and lack of strength, he returned to his room with the support of his disciples.
