Ruan Jiaojiao tried to appear nonchalant, but in truth, her mind was far from at ease. When asked what they wanted to eat, her gaze never left the bell at the entrance.
About ten minutes after they entered, Ruan Jiaojiao noticed the bell gently swaying.
She involuntarily jumped from Ruan Jianguo's arms and took a couple of steps forward. Ruan Jianguo saw it too and immediately followed her, while Duan Qianyang from the other side also approached, and Duan Sishu who was sitting with him retreated a bit.
However, the bell didn't make much noise, merely swaying twice and emitting a few clear, crisp sounds before coming to a stop.
"It's nothing," Duan Qianyang reassured himself.
Ruan Jianguo nodded along, adding, "Yes, maybe it was the wind."
Ruan Jiaojiao remained silent, for she knew that this was no ordinary bell; it was one that could sense souls. Just now, the movement might have signaled that Yuan Laofu Ren had been released.
