Aren’t You Giving Me a Hug (1)?

That tiny little shadowy snake did not attract anyone's notice within the noisy and crowded main hall and Jun Wu Xie saw its shadow disappearing outside the threshold of the main hall's door.

Ink Snake.

She had seen it many times before and Ink Snakes like that were kept around Ye Sha and Ye Gu as well. For the banquet, Ye Sha and Ye Gu did not take part in it. Now that they had released an Ink Snake, could anything have happened?

Suspicion swirled within Jun Wu Xie's heart and she silently stood up while she gave Zi Jin and Yue Yi a gaze saying "no need to get excited".

Jun Wu Xie walked out through the main hall's doors and under the night, she saw that tiny little Ink Snake. The Ink Snake seemed to be consciously waiting for Jun Wu Xie to follow it. But after having taken merely just a few steps, it then stopped in its tracks till it saw the figure of Jun Wu Xie, where it would then continue to slither further towards the darkness.
