Fortunately, Bai Jiao’er and Little Jue had been following him. At this moment, Little Jue took a step forward and held his shoulder. He said solemnly, “Don’t be rash.”
It was very easy to enter the barrier, but it was difficult to come back to this side. The people living nearby knew very well how dangerous the monsters beyond the barrier were and they all avoided this area. No one dared to step foot here.
Baili Yu frowned and rubbed the space between his eyebrows. Halted by Little Jue in time, he no longer had the urge to continue walking forward. However, his eyes were still filled with anxiety, and he was like an ant on a hot pan. “It’s all my fault. I wanted to stop her yesterday. I would have stopped her even if I had to use all my strength if I had known that something would happen to her.”
Baili Yu was filled with regret. He kept sighing, and his anxious expression tugged at Bai Jiao’er and Little Jue’s hearts.
“Brother-in-law, it’s alright. Sister is so powerful. Nothing will happen to her.” Bai Jiao’er touched Little Jue’s arm.
Baili Yu kept reproaching himself for his beloved wife’s departure. They had to push aside all negative thoughts and comfort him, or it would only worsen things.
Little Jue understood Bai Jiao’er’s intentions and nodded. “Miss Wanxi is powerful. Very few monsters in this barrier are her match.”
Baili Yu’s expression did not soften at all at their comforting words. Instead, he took a deep breath and shook his head. “I’m not worried about monsters. I’m worried that your sister didn’t encounter a monster, but someone else. Father-in-law’s injury must have something to do with She Qi. That man has always been coveting your sister…”
Although Baili Yu didn’t finish his sentence, his meaning was obvious. Baili Yu was especially anxious about his beloved wife’s safety because of She Qi. He was worried that she might be injured or that she had encountered some unpredictable danger because of She Qi.
Baili Yu felt even more uneasy at this thought.
“Brother-in-law, don’t worry so much. My sister is so powerful. She will definitely not hold back even if she really meets She Qi!” Bai Jiao’er comforted him even though she also couldn’t help feeling uneasy.
Actually, Bai Jiao’er and the rest also realized that something was wrong, but they subconsciously refused to believe that Bai Wanxi was in danger.
Therefore, Bai Jiao’er and the rest were still thinking of ways to encourage the people around them.
However, Chi Jiao and Quan Jue were different. They had already guessed that this “diary story” would end in tragedy. But they didn’t expect it to happen so soon. They were caught off guard.
“Jiaojiao, what happened in the diary is not within our control. You know this very well.” Quan Jue seemed to have guessed that Chi Jiao would be affected by this matter, so he tried to coax her.
Clearly, he didn’t want her to be affected by this matter.
How could Chi Jiao not know Quan Jue’s good intentions? She was no less anxious than Bai Jiao’er, but she was not from this world. No matter how worried she was, there was nothing she could do.
What was happening now was something that had happened hundreds of years ago. They were just bystanders and could not change it.
“Brother Quan, don’t worry. I understand,” Chi Jiao said solemnly.
