The candlelight flickered in the gentle breeze.
Yet, not a single figure of the others could be seen.
The scene was utterly bizarre.
At this moment, all the viewers in the live stream couldn't help but feel a sense of dread.
"My god, I was so focused on observing this world that I forgot about this."
"Yeah, Daidai is right. Where are Minister Bai and the others? They entered less than a minute apart, right?"
"Where could they have gone in such a short time?"
"You think they might have encountered a terrifying monster right after entering, and then were all..."
"Ah... Brother upstairs, please don't scare me, don't scare me."
"I'm not easily scared, don't make it so terrifying, okay."
On-site.
Glancing at the barrage of comments in the live stream.
Seeing what the audience was saying about terrifying monsters, Dai Xiaomei's heart couldn't be more terrified.
"Daidai... Daidai, do you think Minister Bai and them might have coincidentally encountered a powerful monster when they entered, and then... and then that monster ate them?"
As she spoke, Dai Xiaomei grew more nervous, increasingly convinced this was the case.
Otherwise, with less than a minute between their entries.
How could they not have seen a single person?
It was simply unbelievable.
Thinking of this, Dai Xiaomei grew even more frightened and unconsciously moved a few steps closer to Ao Yuan.
"Daidai, how about we..."
"Screech!"
Before Dai Xiaomei could finish her sentence, a deafening, sharp shriek suddenly echoed from outside the cave.
Through the cave entrance, a colossal dark silhouette flashed by.
"Ah..."
Dai Xiaomei's face instantly turned pale.
"What... what is that!"
"It should be a creature from this small world," Ao Yuan replied, his gaze exploring outside the cave.
He then glanced at Dai Xiaomei and said, "There are no signs of a struggle nearby, don't be scared."
"Minister Bai and them were likely teleported to another location."
Dai Xiaomei wanted to say more, but Ao Yuan had already walked towards the cave entrance.
Seeing this, Dai Xiaomei could no longer pay attention to anything else and quickly followed Ao Yuan.
Although she possessed some strength now, having lived in a peaceful society, she had never experienced anything like this.
Outside the cave, a remarkably wide road stretched ahead.
Ao Yuan and Dai Xiaomei followed this path deep into the small world.
After walking for a while.
Dai Xiaomei grew increasingly panicked.
Because!
She scanned her surroundings, and everywhere she looked, she saw piles of monster bones and the bones of other unknown species.
They lay scattered on the ground, and under the pitch-black night sky, it looked incredibly eerie.
This made Dai Xiaomei forget to interact with the viewers in the live stream and cling to Ao Yuan's back, afraid of falling behind.
"Holy cow, all bones!"
"I feel like these bones are laughing at me, I'm almost scared to pee."
"Brother, you're not alone, I'm already watching the stream while kneeling."
"What kind of world is this? Is it too scary? I'm out."
"Damn it, I'm clearly in the sun right now, but why do I still feel cold all over?"
"Is this a live stream meant for humans?"
"Speaking of which, haven't you noticed? It's night in the live stream, but it's daytime here..."
...
Countless netizens in the live stream watched the scene before them, posting many exploratory comments.
From these comments, it was clear that the netizens were also very terrified.
Bang!!
Just then, Ao Yuan suddenly stopped and his eyes sharply scanned in one direction.
"There's a sound!"
Dai Xiaomei raised her head and followed Ao Yuan's gaze, but could only see darkness, nothing else.
The same was true for the many viewers in the live stream.
Even with the volume turned up to the maximum, they couldn't hear a thing.
"Let's go see!"
Ao Yuan glanced at Dai Xiaomei, then sprang forward, heading towards the source of the sound.
Seeing this, Dai Xiaomei immediately followed behind Ao Yuan.
Right now, she dared not stay anywhere but by Ao Yuan's side.
She was afraid of encountering dangers she couldn't handle.
After walking for a short while, Dai Xiaomei's delicate nose twitched, and she frowned slightly.
She still couldn't hear any sounds of fighting, but she could smell a strong scent of blood.
Ao Yuan beside her had clearly smelled it too, and his speed increased considerably.
In a short while, they arrived at the scene of the battle.
It was only then that Dai Xiaomei's ears picked up sounds.
This perplexed Dai Xiaomei.
The sounds seemed very loud, so why could she only hear them now that they were close by?
Looking up, she saw a giant beast, at least five to six meters tall, desperately fleeing.
Its back was covered in claw marks, and as it ran, blood poured out like it was going to die.
The viewers in the live stream could tell that if this continued, the giant beast would die from blood loss in no time.
And behind it, a colossal monster, at least ten meters tall, was pursuing it.
Seeing this, everyone's hearts sank.
It wasn't because Ao Yuan had heard the sound from so far away.
It was because they recognized the monster chasing the giant beast.
It was the Mi Clan that had previously appeared on Blue Star.
However...
This Mi Clan monster was clearly more than twice the size of the two that had appeared on Blue Star!
Furthermore, its entire body was covered in dark, scaly armor, indicating extreme hardness.
Upon seeing this monster, Dai Xiaomei's expression shifted slightly.
Even without having fought it directly, a strong sense of danger welled up within her.
Clearly, this monster was not easy to deal with.
"What... how can there be such a large monster?"
"Can humans handle this?"
"My god, if this monster had appeared on Blue Star before, we wouldn't have been able to stop it."
"Look at Dai Xiaomei's solemn expression, don't you realize how powerful this monster is?"
"I now feel that this small world is a bit too terrifying. I wonder how strong this monster is within this small world."
As the viewers in the live stream were discussing this.
On-site.
Not long after Ao Yuan and Dai Xiaomei appeared at the battle scene.
The monster, which had been pursuing the giant beast, seemed to sense something.
"Mee!"
It let out a long roar, and then, abandoning the giant beast, its scarlet eyes locked onto Dai Xiaomei.
Then.
With a flap of its wings, it rapidly charged towards Dai Xiaomei.
"Ah! What's happening!"
Dai Xiaomei's face paled slightly, unable to comprehend why this monster had suddenly set its sights on her.
She hadn't interfered with them.
However, at this critical juncture, Dai Xiaomei understood what she needed to do.
Instantly!
A burst of flames erupted from her body and shot towards the sky.
