"Commandery Princess...!" Gao Yuyue let out a heart-wrenching scream, one that jolted everyone awake. Then she shrieked, trembling all over, "Help! The Commandery Princess has fallen into the water!"
The others also played their parts, faces awash with panic.
Everything proceeded in an orderly fashion.
The Commandery Princess sank into the water, and was soon submerged by the lake. Tiny bubbles surfaced on the tranquil waters, the airtight lake like the gaping maw of a feral beast, silently devouring its prey.
That peerlessly beautiful woman disappeared beneath the waves just like that, crimson spreading, tragic and poignant.
From the wind came the sound of a flute, like a mournful elegy.
The boat was in chaos. The blue-clad beauty cried out "Commandery Princess!" before rushing to the bow and diving into the water without hesitation.
Cui Jie clicked his tongue in astonishment. What was with this girl?
