"That light can't seal that realm gate, can it?" Lonemoon asked. Even the plane's assistant had come, and he brought with him an entire team as well. Who knew what else he would be capable of?
"Mm." Shen Ying nodded. She looked at the dishes on the table in front of her and a look flashed across her eyes. She set her chopsticks down and got to her feet. "We have to completely separate that small world from the rest of our plane. They cannot do this – only you can."
"Me?" Lonemoon paused.
Chef walked out of the kitchen at that exact moment. He looked at the half-filled plates on the table and frowned.
"How should we go about it?"
"We can't do it here," Shen Ying Continued. "We have to go to the central control area. There, we can separate each of the small worlds from one another. The catch is that the both of you have to learn to take full control of your assistants' authorities first."
"Central control?" What did that mean?
Yi Qing paused, as if realizing something. "Master, you mean to say that we have to go back to the divine realm?"
She nodded her head.
"Then what are we waiting for?" Lonemoon turned around and opened a portal in mid-air. "We can't afford to wait any longer. We have to go as soon as we can." He just started to enter the portal when he realized that Shen Ying stood rooted to the ground. He paused and said, "Shen Ying, let's go!"
"Are you deaf? I said, this thing must be settled by... the both of you."
"What do you mean?" Lonemoon hesitated.
Shen Ying suddenly grinned at him. Her icy demeanor had completely disappeared. Instead, she cast an uncharacteristically warm look at the both of them. "All the best, Boyfriend and Father Niu!"
The moment she finished speaking, she collapsed without any warning.
"Master!"
"Shen Ying!"
Their expressions changed. Both of them reached out to catch the lady who had just collapsed. Both of their faces displayed pure panic.
——————
"What just happened?" Lonemoon did a closer inspection of the lady on the bed. He realized that this was just like the previous time – there was nothing wrong with Shen Ying's body. Instead, she was in a coma without any other symptoms. "She was just fine before."
"Master activated her powers by force in order to save us," Yi Qing explained, fists clenched tight by his sides. Blood began to flow out of his palms, yet he did not seem to notice. "I thought that we had time..." That was why he returned to the rear hall to pack all the dishes when he found the time to do so. It was a pity that he was still too late.
Lonemoon recalled the dishes that Shen Ying had not managed to finish earlier, and his expression darkened. Shen Ying seemed to have noticed that no matter how much she ate, she would not be able to recover the amount of energy she consumed that second time. That was probably why she chose to enter into a coma instead.
Shit!"What did she say before?" Lonemoon sucked in a deep breath and asked. Given Shen Ying's personality, she would not enter a coma without giving proper explanations as to how exactly to deal with the invaders.
"Master said that if she suddenly becomes stuck, we should not worry." Yi Qing's fists tightened even more by his sides. In a low voice, he continued, "She also said we should not even try to wake her. She would come to soon enough."
