After the war, Anling City was devastated, and the prosperity of the past can no longer be seen.

The ruined city is surrounded by an endless abyss, and it looks extremely lonely and desolate.

However, for today's Yuling, just a thought, the mountains, rivers, grass and trees all moved, and under the abyss, there seemed to be an earth dragon turning over, and the deep soil layer rumbled, filling this ugly hole in a few breaths.

A strong wind blew, and the uneven surface of the ground was polished to a smooth surface, and all the dust dissipated with it.

Finally, there is the concrete rain of the Tao, which falls from nothingness, moisturizing things silently, washing away the bloody smell and bringing the vitality of all things.

In the corner of the ruins, the tender green blades of grass stubbornly emerged from the cracks in the tiles, and a small withered blue flower swayed in the white drizzle, looking delicate and beautiful.

Everything seems to have returned to the way it was before the Great War, except for the dilapidated buildings that still show a bit of cold cruelty.

Yu Ling took Zi Chenruo's hand and walked slowly through the streets of Anling City, and finally came to the city lord's mansion that had collapsed half of it.

"I'll just say why the world is suddenly quiet, it turns out that your kid has returned. ”

Xu Yanting leaned against the pillar at the door, staring at his bloodshot eyes, and said weakly.

"The seniors of the Emperor and the seniors of the South have worked hard. Yuling walked up the steps and bowed solemnly.

"Hey......" Xu Yanting didn't want to dodge, so he had to wave his hand and said: "It's just an equivalent exchange, in short, what's the situation now? Will the people of the Yuanling Clan come again?"

"No, at least they don't have time to take care of Dengyun Star, and the next main battlefield is probably the northern realm. Yuling said.

"Are you a complete break with them?" asked Xu Yanting.

"Sooner or later, anyway, I already have a pretty good grasp of the situation of the Yuan Ling Clan. ”

"But there are many masters of the Yuanling Clan, not to mention that there are Daoling Clans eyeing them, I'm afraid you alone will ......"

"Nature is not just me. Yuling said.

"Okay, seeing that you are so confident, I just want to ask, when can we go back to the south?" Xu Yanting said.

"The southern border has to wait, because that side is mainly in the hands of the Dao Spirit Clan, I'll take it one step at a time, or it won't be too long. Yuling said.

Nan Yingtan, who had been listening quietly, asked out loud: "The royal family is ...... now?" How's it going?"

"There is not much change from before, Cai Ye has the sole power, but in fact, he is protecting the King of Nan in disguise, even if he can't help himself now, the important positions inside and outside the palace are basically occupied by the Daoling clan. ”

Nan Yingtan couldn't help but be silent for a while: "It's not easy." ”

Yu Ling handed him a jade slip and said, "Senior Nan, these are some of my thoughts after breaking through to the Chaos Realm, because we are all cultivating the Ancient Yang Technique, and I want to have a certain reference significance for you." ”

"Thank you. I was thinking that now that everything has been calmed down, it's time for me to go to the Chaos Void to hone and strive to break through to the Chaos Realm as soon as possible. "Nanying Tan Zhengse.

"Is there anything to give me?" Xu Yanting also said honestly and unceremoniously.

"I can only send a few prisoners to my seniors. ”

"Prisoner, don't you mean ......?"

"That's right, it's those few Array Dao Masters of the Yuanling Clan, I think it's a pity to kill the technical talents, and besides, they are strictly neutral people, so it's better to make the best use of them. ”

"That's the right idea, I'll talk to them when I'm rested. Xu Yanting said with satisfaction.

After greeting Nan Yingtan and the two, there was still a lot of aftermath work in front of her, and before Yuling had time to chat with Zichenruo a few more words, she returned to her busy work.

Fortunately, Zichen handled things very methodically, and by the middle of the night, the situation in Anling City had regained stability.

"I'm tired of the day, go and rest. ”

Yu Ling sent her to the door of the room, and was about to turn around and leave, but heard her call softly, "Yu Ling." ”

He turned his head and saw her figure standing slender in the moonlight, slightly bowing her head and kneading the corners of her clothes, showing a rare hint of weakness.

"I still can't believe it, it's like I'm in a dream......," Zichenruo muttered.

"The people in my dreams are vague, and if you don't believe me, look at me carefully. Yu Ling pressed her shoulder, leaned a little closer, and smiled.

Zichenruo looked at his close face, and there was a little fever on his face, but this time she didn't dodge, looked into Yu Ling's eyes and said, "One night I was so tired, I fell asleep in the study unconsciously, and I had a very real dream. ”

"In my dream, I put on a red wedding dress, and many people were combing my hair and putting on makeup, but when I came to the church, they suddenly said to me, "You are gone, and you want someone else to marry me." I was so angry that I pushed them away and rushed out, looking for you all over the world, but I couldn't find you. ”

"It wasn't until I rushed out of the gate of the courtyard that somehow the picture changed and I came to the academy, and you walked alone on the tree-lined path, just like you did more than ten years ago. ”

"I chased your back desperately, obviously you didn't walk fast at all, but the distance between me and you became farther and farther and farther, so far that I couldn't reach it, and in the end, I could only watch you disappear into a white light. ”

"You turned your head in the light, as if you saw me, and told me that you do not belong to this world, and that you will leave here after all, and that I will forget you. ”

"But how did I forget?"

"I rushed to that white light, and then the whole world melted into nothingness. ”

"When I woke up, I found that I had actually slept for just ten minutes, but in the dream, it seemed to be endless. ”

"Yuling, will you leave?" Zichen hugged him tightly, as if he was afraid that as soon as he let go, the person in front of him would disappear like a bubble.

"Silly girl, you said you are so smart, why are you confused about this matter, this is why you didn't promise me?"

Yu Ling smiled dumbly: "You say, where can I run?"

"I don't know, maybe it's back to your real hometown. ”

"Then why don't I take you with me?"

"I ......"

"If my cultivation is not enough, I will wait for a few more years, decades, or hundreds of years, and I believe that you will have cultivated to the realm of renunciation. ”

Yu Ling gently stroked her hair with her hand, and said with a slight smile: "Even if it still doesn't work, why do I have to go back? There, I have no friends, no relatives, and no people I like, although the mobile phone is quite fun, but without you, what's the point of me going back alone?"

"Cell phone...... What is it?walkie-talkie?" Zi Chenruo asked curiously.

"That's a lot more functional, if you have a chance in the future, I'll take you to play." ”

"Okay, that's a deal. ”

"Can you agree to marry me now?"

Zichen Ruo said slightly: "My father said that this kind of thing can't be agreed to too easily, otherwise it will ......"

"Okay, let's be busy this year, and we'll talk about it next year. ”

"I—That's not what I meant......"

"I know, I know. Yuling saw that her ears were red, and she didn't know whether she was ashamed or anxious, so she hurriedly stopped ridiculing and said with a straight expression: "When my father-in-law comes back, I will propose marriage according to the procedure, and I will also send you a love token." When the time comes, I'll ask you how to get married in the east, and learn from it to make the grandest ......."

"Don't. Zichen Ruo said very seriously: "If you want to follow the process of the eastern border, I don't think about it in three years." ”

"Well, okay, everything is up to my daughter-in-law's arrangement. ”

"You...... How did you become so flamboyant now, who did you learn from?" Zichen glanced at him in shame.

"Of course, it's Nian Xiaobai. Yuling's first reaction was to push the pot over.

"I knew that...... By the way, how are he and Senior Sister Liu doing now?" Zichenruo asked.

"If it weren't for the Yuan Ling Clan's side, I think they might get married on the spot at any time. ”

"Then no one should be stopping you now, right?"

"This is natural, on the way to Dengyun Star, I divided into several clones and dealt with the elders of the Yuanling Clan of the Fire Refining Sect, Snow Peak, Jiuchen Gate and Western Union as quickly as possible, and in the future, the Northern Realm and the Ancestral Star will not be under their control. ”

"That's good, I'll just say there's no hurry for you to stay here. ”

"Although there are many things, they can always be solved one by one, while the Daoyu Galaxy has not reacted yet, I will stabilize the northern border first, and then I can rectify the western territory. ”

"Then Xu Shipu, how are you going to deal with it, are you able to be on an equal footing with him now?" Zichen Ruo said with concern.

"It's a little worse, but there's one guy who can. ”

Yu Ling said calmly: "The long-lost Gu Spirit Clan, it's time to reappear in people's field of vision. ”
