Chapter 16 Star Stone Origin
"Are you going to carry me or not?" Xiao Jinsheng clung tightly to his arm, squatting down while holding onto him for leverage, and lifted both her feet off the ground.
Seeing her casually cling to him, Que Zelian bore her entire weight with one hand and even gave her a light swing. "If you don't mind, I can carry you like this to outrun the Fog Corpses."
"I'm just hanging around for fun, don't take it seriously!" Xiao Jinsheng exclaimed in alarm.
"How heavy could she be? If you can't handle it, just forget it." Su Ye stepped forward with his long legs, stretching out a hand toward Xiao Jinsheng. "Come on, I'll carry you."
As soon as Xiao Jinsheng looked at Su Ye, she couldn't forget the skinned rabbit head, drenched in blood, from their first day here.
That memory alone left her instinctively afraid of Su Ye.
Especially now, with his sudden friendliness—a complete change from his usual demeanor. Xiao Jinsheng was suspicious he might be plotting some mischief to mess with her again.
Hurriedly, she leapt down from Que Zelian's hand, intending to evade him.
Que Zelian misunderstood, thinking she was moving toward Su Ye. With a swift motion, he pulled her back into his arms and cradled her princess-style.
His gentle smile met Su Ye's slightly cool golden gaze, and he chuckled lightly. "I'd better do it. After all, I've got experience carrying her while escaping from Fog Corpses."
After saying this, Que Zelian's gaze shifted to the massive saber blade strapped to Su Ye's back. "You'll need both hands free for fighting. If she's with me and we're surrounded by Fog Corpses, I can still ascend into the sky."
