The Cold King and His Spoilt Wife: His Genius Consort Is Breathtaking

Chapter 94: The Strange Murals

In the end, the country was swallowed by the sea and no one survived.

The story stopped there. The murals on the stone walls slowly disappeared, and finally, they turned into a smooth color.

The two of them didn’t return to their senses for a long time, as if they were still immersed in the story.

Jin Chao subconsciously touched his chest. The story seemed to be affecting his emotions. This feeling made him frown uncontrollably.

Feeling a jerk under her feet, Xia Muqing sensed that something had changed. She turned to look at her surroundings. Clearly, Jin Chao hadn’t noticed anything.

Xia Muqing shook her head to indicate that she was fine as Jin Chao looked at her curiously.

The two of them still couldn’t get out.

Xia Muqing spotted the only rock in the cave and tried to move it. She tried her best but she still couldn’t make it budge at all. This was rather embarrassing.

She looked at her hands in disbelief. Her internal energy had returned. Why was she still like this?

Jin Chao extended his hand and pushed the rock away.

Xia Muqing was even more in disbelief. She stared at her own hands as she flipped through it. Jin Chao coughed softly and said, “You’re moving it the wrong way.”

There was a trace of amusement in his voice.

Xia Muqing lowered her head to take a look. There was a step under the stone blocking it. No wonder she couldn’t push it no matter how hard she tried. She pretended to be nonchalant and squatted down to check if there were any clues on the ground.

However, she still didn’t find anything. She sat on the ground dejectedly and looked around the cave to see if there was anything suspicious.

Jin Chao followed her and sat on the ground.

Xia Muqing suddenly patted his shoulder and quipped, “I think I know how to get out.”

Jin Chao turned to look at her and she said, “The murals in the cave suddenly disappeared. Is the key to the exit related to the mural? Can’t we just engrave on the wall?”

Naturally, there were no objections from Jin Chao. The two of them picked up the small rocks and started to recall the mural just now. Xia Muqing first drew out a rough outline according to the image in her memory, but she couldn’t remember anything after that.

Jin Chao added a little more, but it was still very different from a complete mural.

Xia Muqing closed her eyes and seriously focused on her memory. Suddenly, something struck her and the details about that man became extremely clear in her mind. It was as if she had seen him with her own eyes. She didn’t stop moving her hands, and drawings appeared one after another.

Jin Chao however, was the opposite. He was very familiar with that woman’s details. With their cooperation, a complete mural was completed on the stone wall.

Xia Muqing took a few steps away and was shocked when she saw the murals. It was almost identical to what she had seen before she transmigrated.

The cave trembled again. They glanced at each other and walked to the entrance. This time, they succeeded in getting out.

The moment they came out, they were greeted with the sight of the Sunset Mountains again. Xia Muqing was stunned and finally understood why she had sensed something was amiss.

She turned around to look at the stone cave that remained. This stone cave actually existed in two different spaces. She couldn’t help but wonder if her transmigration was really a coincidence.

Jin Chao asked, “What’s wrong?”

Xia Muqing shook her head and glanced at him with an odd expression. “I don’t care what you have in mind. Farewell for now and don’t follow me anymore.”

He didn’t say a word, and Xia Muqing took it that he had agreed. She walked straight ahead.

The sound of footsteps behind her made her stop. She looked at the man following her. “Why are you following me?”

Jin Chao looked up at her and said, “I have nowhere to go.”

So… he was preparing to cling onto her?

Xia Muqing suddenly approached him and pressed him against the tree behind her. “Do I know you?”

Jin Chao didn’t resist. As she inched closer, his throat subconsciously moved. “Perhaps.”

Xia Muqing guessed that his name was fake. She stared into his eyes and pondered. Who was this man?
