Tangling with the Western Commander-Chapter 565 - 562: The Freeze Frame of This Moment (1)

Lu Xiao drove as the two headed for the airport.

Their flight was at night.

But that day they set off very early, Wen Xian didn’t know why he wanted to leave so early; she was drowsy in the car the whole time.

However, when she awoke again, she was completely stunned.

To tell the truth, after waking up and looking at the scenery around her, she was shocked, almost thinking she had ascended to—"Heaven."

At that time, it was evening.

Because the sky was a swath of red, a swath of orange, and there was golden light piercing through the clouds.

The car they were in also seemed to be in the sky, and everything around them was as if in the heavens.

Wen Xian’s eyes widened, she rubbed her eyes vigorously, and when she turned towards Lu Xiao, she was at a loss for words, stuttering:

"... We, what’s happening...? Are we in the sky?"

Could it be that they’d had an accident while she was asleep in the car!?

But if they really had ascended to heaven, how did this SUV end up coming along...!?

Wen Xian’s words completely amused the usually solemn Captain Lu Xiao, a slight smile tugging at the corner of his lips, he shook his head and simply uttered two words:

"Get out."

He then opened the car door straight away.

Wen Xian was baffled, completely dumbfounded, because she felt as though she was among the clouds, with the area beneath the car wheels all orange cloud.

Still, she slowly opened the car door, cautiously.

Only when she opened the door and looked down did she vaguely realize that something was off.

As there was a slight flattening on the tires, clearly indicating they were pressing down on the ground.

And at this moment, Wen Xian looked carefully to see that beneath the tires was not a cloud layer, but resembled a—lake.

This lake was fascinating, thick ice crystals below and a thin layer of water on top. Seeing this scene, Wen Xian finally understood where they were.

This was—"Mirror of the Sky"...!

There is such a place overseas, in the western part of Bolivia is the Uyuni Salt Flats, which are the world’s largest salt flats.

But this beautiful place exists in our own country too, that is the Chaka Salt Lake.

The scenery is incredibly beautiful; the lake’s color changes with the color of the sky. She had long known about this place but never had the chance to see it.

But just a few days ago, she mentioned it.

That time she and he were chatting on the rooftop of the log cabin during the gathering with the team members from their jurisdiction.

She never imagined that Lu Xiao would actually take her to see it before she left.

A warm emotion surged in her heart at once, warming her, as if a heat wave was spreading through her.

This feeling of someone taking her casual words to heart was really nice...

At the moment, Wen Xian’s boots stepped onto the lake surface, as she gazed at the evening spectacle before her, she felt everything was surreal.

Like entering a dream-like world, as if stepping into the clouds, set within another beautiful world.

The place was completely empty at this time, the light of the dusk and the sunset at the horizon resembled an ink wash landscape painting, vast and boundless.

It was utterly silent.

And at that moment, Lu Xiao came over and extended his hand.

Wen Xian took hold and followed him, walking slowly ahead.

She was entirely captivated, feeling as though between heaven and earth, only the two of them remained, and they could only hear each other’s—
