Let us temporarily switch our perspective to the other side of the night. On the top floor of Wangshu Inn, two wind-type boys showed completely different postures.

One of them sat leisurely, looking relaxed; the other one carried a spear on his back, standing tall and proud like a pine tree. However, the atmosphere at the moment was like a pool of stagnant water, so quiet that it made people feel scared, as if even the air was frozen and solidified, and the atmosphere of embarrassment spread quietly and silently like an undercurrent.

A gentle breeze blew slowly, but it seemed like a powerless struggle, and ultimately failed to break the suffocating silence. The puppet lowered his eyes slightly, with a look of vague contemplation, and his slender fingers unconsciously tapped the tiles around him, making a subtle and crisp sound that was particularly clear in the silence. Xiao, who was standing, stared quietly into the distance, his eyes as deep as the mysterious night sky, as if he was immersed in a unique world that belonged only to him, and he was completely unaware of everything around him, as if he had been completely isolated from the noisy world.

In the night sky, colorful fireworks bloomed from time to time, and the brilliant light illuminated the entire vast sky. The colorful colors and deafening sounds should have attracted everyone's attention, but they seemed to have no interest in this lively scene. Silence was like an inseparable shadow, tightly wrapped around them, making people feel that time seemed to have stopped at this moment, and the whole world was swallowed up and drowned by this oppressive and heavy silence.

The puppet master was the first to break the nearly devastating silence. He raised his chin slightly, his eyes revealed a trace of undisguised disdain, and snorted softly, the sound was particularly abrupt and harsh in the silence, and said: "Humph, this Lantern Festival is just like this, it's really boring. But aren't you curious about what Lin Huan is doing now? From my point of view, she may not be in a very good mood at the moment..."

After a moment of silence, Xiao spoke slowly, his voice cold and calm, like a spring flowing in the mountains, without the slightest ripple: "Since she has made her choice, she has her own considerations, no need to worry."

After hearing this, the puppet master's eyes widened and he raised his voice and said, "You sound so relaxed! She is going to face the past alone. Who knows what will happen? Are you really not worried at all?"

Xiao lowered his eyes slightly, and a subtle emotion flashed in his eyes that was difficult to detect. That emotion was like a fleeting meteor in the night sky, elusive and difficult to explore. He said softly: "I believe her."

The puppet frowned, his face full of undisguised disapproval, as if he was angered by Xiao's calmness: "What's the point of believing? What if she can't bear it? She's not as strong and tough as she looks. Are you so confident that she can face it alone?"

Xiao raised his head slightly and looked into the distance. His eyes were firm and deep, as if they could penetrate the endless darkness. He said in a firm and resolute tone: "She has her own path to follow. If she needs me, I will show up."

The puppet snorted and muttered, "Hmph, that sounds good. But when she is really in danger, will you be able to make it in time?"

Xiao seemed to have remembered something, and lowered his eyes slightly, but he no longer responded to the puppet master's questioning and questioning. He just stood there quietly, as if he had merged with the night and became a part of the darkness. Seeing that Xiao stopped talking, the puppet master was full of dissatisfaction, but he could do nothing about it. The top floor fell into silence again, and only the fireworks that bloomed from time to time in the night sky broke the silent atmosphere. The brilliant light seemed to remind people that the world is not always so quiet and peaceful.

After a long time, Xiao suddenly moved. His figure was as erratic as a ghost, and he disappeared in an instant the next moment, leaving only one sentence echoing in the air: "If you are worried about her, come with me!"

The puppet was slightly stunned, but his reaction was as fast as lightning. The next moment, he flew up and rushed towards the direction where Xiao left - the southwest of Wangshu Inn. At the same time, he kept shouting: "Hey! Wait a minute! Do you think you are superior to others just because you are a fairy Yaksha?"
