Without a sound, the Blood Bone Bird turned back the way it came and vanished into the night.
It was already late autumn, and the sky had been growing overcast since the afternoon. With a storm brewing, night fell early. The wind howled fiercely, and on such a high floor, the cold air quickly flooded the entire room.
Seeing this, Mr. Hei waited for the Blood Bone Bird to depart before waving his hand, casting a barrier over the shattered window. Only then was the roaring wind shut out.
"Master Qi, this is terrible!" cried Xiang Xiaoxue. She had jumped off the Blood Bone Bird the moment it arrived, rushed to her room to throw on a robe, and then run right back out.
Her long, slender eyes, which usually held a dreamy look, now quickly welled with tears.
Xin Huohuo's heart sank. She turned to look at Xiao Qi.
