As he waited for Wan Ling and the others to complete the trial, he decided to have a little chat with Yue Lan.
"Hey, Lan'er. What do you think about this Mystique Realm?" He asked as he observed the bleak sky of this realm.
[Hoh? Since when do you start to address me so affectionately?]
Yue Lan asked curiously.
"Come on now, we have known each other for years, and you are one of the closest people to me. I'm pretty sure we can address each other more closely after spending all that time together. You basically saw me growing up." Shen Yuan lay down on the rock and closed his eyes to feel the winds, which felt worse than the finds of the desert due to the aura of the place.
[Hmm…makes sense. Anyways, you have yet to see my true form, right?]
Yue Lan's voice turned playful as she asked.
