Restless
The moon suspended by the clouds, the cold wash of light comforting when XueYa walked through the sparse woods, enjoying the crisp crunch of dry autumn leaves beneath his feet. A waft of soft earthy soil tickled his nose pleasantly.
Zhou had been silent most of the journey after finding XueYa conversing with madam Mu - but he had elaborated enough on the mermaid prince's arrival on land. Also on how XueYa's pretty little lover had shot a poison needle into his highness perk ass cheek and rendered him unconscious within seconds.
XueYa reminded himself not to piss LiangLin off - even if the snake god's poison had little effect on him, it was still uncomfortable when the poison circulated in his system, burning and prickling its way through his body before disappearing.
A small cough pulled XueYa out of his thoughts, and he glanced at Zhou expectedly. "hmm?"
"I saw Feng MuLing while searching for you."
