Who knows why there's no trace of Qiu Qingqing coming here. That doesn't seem logical. Jiang Zai wondered, unless someone else came in between him and Qiu Qingqing. Jiang Cheng felt a chill running down his spine at the thought. He stopped thinking about it and continued walking forward.
Jiang Cheng kept moving forward, ignoring the cold and eerie atmosphere. All he wanted now was to find Qiu Qingqing as soon as possible and hoped she was okay.
However, this cave had no other paths; there was only one way forward. He had been walking for almost ten minutes when he saw what seemed like a light ahead. It must be the entrance to Stone Valley, Jiang Cheng thought. But after another ten minutes, he realized the light was still distant, not any closer. Jiang Cheng stood still, looking ahead. Something was wrong with this cave. It felt like a mirage in the desert, providing no hope.
