The ox-head officer scratched his head and hesitantly replied, "I don't know. This is the first time I have met a mute soul."
Now that they believed this group couldn't speak, the horse-face officer looked at them with pity in his black, beady eyes.
Bai Hanyun shuddered when she saw the way he looked at her. Realizing it was useless to continue trying, she took out a piece of paper and a pen and began writing.
When she finished, she showed it to the two officers.
[We want to go to the Gui Clan's secret realm. Can you show us the way?]
After reading her words, both officers swallowed hard.
Exchanging glances, the ox-head officer sent a telepathic message. [Old Horse, how could you fail to recognize members of the Gui Clan? What if they get angry and tear down the palace again?]
Hearing this, the horse-face officer looked like he wanted to cry but had no tears. His face crumpled as he forced a smile at Bai Hanyun, one that looked uglier than a cry.
