When a group of people with different expressions emerged from the ice cave, some acted as if they were stargazing in a starless place, others touched the ice layer as if to study its thickness, while some pretended to chat casually, like Zhao Shanqi.
The crowd's subtle glances fell on Bian Weiying and Gan Tangyu, who stood side by side in the semi-lit area.
Hearing the commotion, the two turned their heads and noticed the group that seemed to have just finished discussing something coming out for fresh air.
Among them, they saw Luo Buqi, Zhao Shanqi's junior brother, walking directly towards them.
Uncertain of his intentions, they turned to greet him.
Upon reaching the two, Luo Buqi politely cupped his hands and said, "After some discussion, we've decided I should lead a few people to explore the surroundings again. For safety, we hope you could lend us a few Immobilization Talismans."
The two suspected nothing amiss.
"The talismans have become ineffective here, as Brother Zhao knows," Bian Weiying explained.
"What a lousy excuse! If you don't want to lend them, just say so, don't need to make things up," Luo Buqi retorted, frowning.
"You can ask your Brother Zhao if you don't believe me," Bian Weiying insisted.
