He stayed up till midnight. His eyelids were practically glued together and could not separate no matter how hard he tried, but Xu Lan was not back yet.

Recently, he could not even manage to stay awake in broad daylight, what is more staying up all night. Finally, Bai Wu released his tightly pressed lips and walked into the bedroom. He switched his blanket with Xu Lan’s because it’s warmer.

He fell asleep right after he closed his eyes. The crack outside the window floated and opened it’s bloody mouth while it swallowed everything around it. The void gave out a chilling laugh and drifted towards him slowly.

If it was not because he was too tired trying to stay up, he would definitely feel the presence of the void. He had been fighting with the crack these few days and had not thought of how to mention it to Xu Lan. He wanted Xu Lan to leave with him since nothing happened the last two times. Anticipation was building in his heart.

One could say that he was possessive or that he was in denial of his feelings, but all Bai Wu wanted was just to stay beside Xu Lan.

“He he he…”

The objects in the room started to rock. They were being absorbed by the crack’s strong suction, which made them broke away from their original positions. Clang… clang…

“Uhm, Papa, it’s cold…” Bai Wu mumbled after turning over. A gust of chilly wind swept away Bai Wu’s blanket. Bai Wu was awakened by it and immediately stood up. The void was already in front of him.

Bang!

“Go… Go away!” Bai Wu’s solid dragon claw punched on the border of the void with a ‘bam’, fragments pattered down and dissipated into the air immediately.

He quickly called Xu Lan. Something really happened now and it is an emergency! If Bai Wu left, the void would return back to its calm form and there would be no more cracks!

“Beep beep… Hello, what’s the matter, Bai Wu? F*ck! How did he get away! Bai Wu, tell me later, the suspect escaped. Beep beep…” The phone call was cut off right after it got connected. The sound of Xu Lan running could be heard from the other end, ‘puff…puff…’.

After adapting to Bai Wu’s viciousness, the void started to move again. ‘Ke ke’ it laughed at Bai Wu, as if it was the messenger from hell.

A stream of fiery red light shot across the room and it was instantly filled with smoke. The silverish white dragon scales covered his whole body like a suited armor. His mouth was puffing out white smoke. He had snow-white coniform scales on his brow ridge, protecting his pair of eyes which were as clear as blood jade. The tips of the silverish white dragon horns were dyed red, and they were as bright as his eyes.

“Howl… Let’s see if you can take me away today!” Bai Wu said proudly, his intangible eminence separated him from the void.

He tried to call Xu Lan again. He had to tell him what was happening. If they could traverse the void without having to suffer from any life-threatening dangers, would Xu Lan be willing to leave with him?

“Beep beep…” No one picked up. The light-weighted cell phone seemed to be extremely heavy, where it bore down on Bai Wu’s strong dragon claws until he was trembling uncontrollably.

“Beep beep beep…” Still not getting picked up. His solid dragon claw could not bear the weight of the cell phone anymore and collapsed to the ground heavily. The cell phone fell to the floor with a ‘bang’.

Within the few moments when Bai Wu was distracted, the void absorbed Bai Wu’s eminence and pounced on him, sucking half of his body into it. At this moment, if he brought out his eminence as the leader of the dragon clan, he might be able to hold off the void for a while.

‘Pang!’ Bai Wu suddenly retracted his dragon form and collapsed onto the floor, where he tried to escape from the void to retrieve the cell phone. Without any form of pressure, the void became more ruthless and laughed. “Ke ke…” It seemed that it was possible to complete the mission and finally settle down in Sanhe bridge.

Soon after, the void crept up Bai Wu’s feet, followed by his legs.
