The two of them, one in front and one behind, quickly returned to the mountain cave.
Chen Ye removed the disguise at the cave entrance and softly called, "Zhiwei, Qing Jun, Master is back."
There was a rustling sound inside the cave at first.
Soon after, two small figures rushed out from the darkness, charging to Chen Ye's legs on either side.
"Master!" Qing Jun cried, her face buried tightly against Chen Ye's trouser leg, her soft body hugging his leg securely.
Zhiwei was much more reserved, merely clutching his clothes with her little hand, her body trembling slightly.
Chen Ye felt a pang in his heart, quickly squatting down to embrace the two frightened little ones, softly comforting them, "It's all right now, it's all right. Master is back, and the bad people have been chased away."
After the life-and-death crisis, the two little girls couldn't care less about being shy.
Rarely did they not resist, obediently letting Chen Ye hold them.
