After taking just a few steps, Zhong Xiang's footsteps halted, and he turned his head in the darkness to look at Zhang Chen.
"Go on! Why are you standing there?" Zhang Chen looked at Zhong Xiang and reprimanded him irritably.
In the darkness, Zhong Xiang remained silent for a moment before speaking in a voice full of grievance, "I'm afraid of the dark..."
"You're a grown man, and you're afraid of the dark?" Zhang Chen was speechless.
Zhong Xiang stood silent in the darkness, and Zhang Chen, feeling helpless, instructed the Fox Spirit to bring a Luminous Pearl from outside. Zhang Chen rolled the Luminous Pearl across the ground, and Zhong Xiang eagerly picked it up and held it in his arms, with the corners of his mouth lifting in a smile as he strode through the dark corridor.
Zhong Xiang walked in front while Zhang Chen quietly followed behind him. The two of them walked in the corridor for a moment, without any major threats, only to be blocked by another large bronze gate.
