401 Mr. Black 1_1

The door to the Emerald Bar slowly opened amidst the tinkling of wind chimes.

A dark, icy breath seeped into the bar from the ever-widening door crack.

Lanya, ready to greet a customer, felt this intense discomfort and shuddered, her smile vanishing from her face.

Even the carefree Dilu shrank her neck and looked toward the entrance with nervous eyes.

The door finally swung open fully; there was no guest outside, but a dense darkness, as if to suck in the souls of the two.

"What is that?" Dilu hugged Lanya tightly, her face filled with fear.

Lanya swallowed hard, opened her mouth but could not speak, wanted to back away, but her legs were frozen.

Just then, a warm, large hand gently rested on her shoulder, the warmth from the palm instantly dispelling the fear that had gripped her.

She turned her head and gave Lin Ge a grateful look.

Lin Ge smiled at her, walked in front of her, and then looked toward the thick darkness outside the door.
