195 The Meng's

The sun was climbing slowly towards its highest point as the crew set off, leaving the temple and AhXin behind to be looked after by XiangWei and Yang Chen. The road ahead was void of any life, only dirt and occasional trees and shrubs littered their path.

Xie Qiang had come by before sunrise, waiting for them impatiently at the gates as MingYu reluctantly bid goodbye to his precious child. Despite AhXin being in good hands and out of harm's reach, MingYu couldn't help but feel a little worry tugging at his heart.

It was making him restless, and MingYu wanted to jump down from the kart LongHai was pulling and head back, but he forced himself to stay still. AhXin was safer staying in the temple than journeying with them towards the cursed village.
