Xu Lan noticed the changes in Bai Wu lately. He had been minimizing physical contact with Xu Lan and refrained from all hugs and kisses. He spent most of his time spacing out alone and sleeping excessively. He would fall asleep within two seconds of being in bed, which was why Xu Lan did not have the chance to have a proper talk with him about this.

"Bai Wu, stop hiding. It's my fault, it's all Papa's fault. Please come back?" Xu Lan lay flat on the ground and asked gingerly.

Bai Wu seemed to have grown up overnight. He cleaned up the house and prepared Xu Lan's meals without bringing up any relationship issues. He even stopped meeting Xiao Xiao altogether.

"Bai Wu, didn't you say that you'll be wherever I am? Come back! Show yourself now! I even made a promise to like you and you only. What do you expect me to do now?" Xu Lan searched through every corner of the house. It seemed like Bai Wu really left!

"Didn't you say that you love me? Come back! Come back and I'll make you a promise. Come back!" Xu Lan roared.

He laid on the ground and curled up in exhaustion. He looked ahead with an empty gaze, lying on the ground like a de-shelled prawn.

"Hiss, hiss. Burp." The eerie laughter of the void could be heard under the bed. It burped, clearly satisfied with its meal.

Xu Lan leaped forward happily and overturned the mattress. The black void was as big as a tennis ball and it wriggled in satisfaction after a good meal. Shortly after, it shrank into the size of a marble and began to vanish.

Xu Lan jumped in excitement and caught it before it vanished. The crack swelled up and swallowed Xu Lan whole.

"Bai Wu! Bai Wu!" Xu Lan charged into the endless darkness, with a heart filled with fear. He wondered how long he would take to find Bai Wu amidst the vast space.

"Bai Wu! Bai Wu!" Xu Lan felt better than the other time he came here. At least he could breathe this time around and was not crushed by the pressure.

"Bai Wu! Where are you!" Xu Lan croaked. He did not stop shouting even though he could barely speak after a prolonged period of shouting.

The last time he traveled through dimensions, all he asked for was for Bai Wu to be fine. He could still think rationally and proceeded to send Bai Wu into the dimensional crack personally. This time, he rushed in without weighing his options.

What good could he do, rushing in without a plan? How did he plan to find Bai Wu amidst the vast crack?

"Bai Wu!"

Xu Lan was constantly impacted by the high pressure. He went with the flow and woke up in a foreign world.

Sometimes, he would end up in a construction site and get ordered around to move bricks. There was a couple of times where he found himself in an animal world and had to scramble for his life. He even stumbled upon a machinery world and stood in awe of the power of machines. He always tried to find the crack as soon as possible in order to re-enter the void and to resume his search for Bai Wu.

He even came across the dragon clan. It was a grand sight; they had gigantic buildings that were three to four times bigger than usual. Epic dragons walked past him; they came in a variety of colors—black, red, green... He thought that Bai Wu still looked the best.

A dragon got hold of Xu Lan and ensnared him like a pet. Another dragon noticed this and made its way over. The dragons were conversing in a complicated incantation-like language, of which Xu Lan could not understand at all.

The two dragons were in a heated argument that led to a fierce fight. Their fight caused the sky to turn dark and a black hole to appear.

This was how Xu Lan found his way into the crack again. In that split second of his entry, he felt an overwhelming force tugging on him.
