In the kitchen.
Jiang Zuo, playing with Su Qi's hair, said, "I'll tie up your hair for you. You just cook the noodles, and no more talking."
Su Qi laughed. "Alright. But don't hurt me—I still have to walk, you know."
Jiang Zuo said, "I know."
「Meanwhile, at Jingyue Villa.」
Jingyue gazed at the villa, then asked Qing Lian over the phone, "I don't see any difference. Where's this so-called Grand Array?"
Qing Lian replied, "Senior Sister Jingjing, you'll see once you come inside. It's really terrifying."
Jingyue was skeptical. 'Terrifying? Just how terrifying could it possibly be?'
Jingyue then stepped inside.
The moment she stepped inside, she found herself in an endless desert.
Jingyue froze. She hadn't sensed a thing.
"An Illusion Realm?"
Jingyue began trying to break the Array; she had to find a way to "wake up."
But no matter how hard she tried, it was useless.
She started walking, then even tried to fly, but the desert remained a desert—endless and inescapable.
