……
The barren mountains stretched as far as the eye could see, and the gloomy sky was filled with death. Everywhere the white bones trembled in the dead wind, and every now and then the skeleton suddenly gave birth to soul fire, got up from the ground again, and joined the ranks of the undead.
There are no living beings, only death here. Because, this is the realm of the dead!
In this place filled with death, three black shadows appeared, one dressed in a black robe, wrapped tightly. But the aura of life exuded from the whole body is difficult to hide.
"With careful planning, I chose the fastest route to get through here and to the Elven Forest. If nothing else, it will arrive in two months! Genshin swore assurance.
"Do you think you're smart, or do you take me for a fool? The fastest route? It's not just a straight line. An Luoli didn't bother to look at the source.
“... People are hard to dismantle. The shortest straight line between two points is true..."Gen sneered.
In order to reach the Elven Forest as quickly as possible, the group traveled lightly.
Why is it so urgent?
The source is also not clear. Somewhere in my heart is faintly urging, and the calamity on my head doesn't know when it will come again. It is necessary to leave this world before that.
It is inevitable to go outside the human domain to find opportunities to become stronger.
The world is very large, and the place where the source knows, in addition to the elven empire in the elven forest, there is also the orc empire in the west of the elven forest, the extreme north region in the north of the human race, the ubiquitous underground country, the ocean country in the east, and the extreme eastern dragon domain across the sea.
Yuan's current force seems to be strong, but against the uncle, it must still be a complete defeat. The catastrophe that the uncle can't reach, and there is no hope of victory for him now.

There are not many threats to him in the realm of the undead, and Yuan has no intention of seeking a way to become stronger in this kind of land of right and wrong. Therefore, this place can only be a scenic area along the way for him, and he will not stay.
……
Halfway through the journey, there was a problem.
Biyan is sick.
The cause is unknown. Maybe the dead air of the Land of the Dead had too much effect on her. I don't know how she came to the human realm.
The girl's face was white and red, her body trembled slightly, her unconscious brows furrowed, and she gasped with difficulty.
Probably, it's painful.
Yuan carried the girl on his back and continued the journey.
The land of the dead, there are no doctors. The girl will get sick and make it unexpected. All the source can do now is to prepare a few potions to enhance the resistance of the dark element.
……
The real reason may only be known to Biyan herself.
She used to be a saint in the Elven Forest.
But now she's just a slave.
Back in the Elven Forest, she didn't know if she still had the face to face the familiar people. But she knew that she would only encounter spitting and contempt.
But it doesn't matter. On top of that, she still had Tren by her side when she went, but now, she was the only one left.
Did she leave Tren alone in a human place? That world of indifference and gloom...
Tired... It's cold...
……
Along the way, the source was not much hindered.
Although the aura of life attracts the undead, only a few can really keep up with their speed. Even if he came, he was purified by the source sword, or ended his undead career with a sword.
The girl's breath became weaker and weaker, making Yuan secretly anxious. I don't know where the root cause of the disease is, and I can't prescribe the right medicine.
He can only dispense potions, but he has no ability to diagnose people.
These days, he has been preparing dark elemental resistance potions and feeding them to Biyan, but he has not seen any improvement, and he is just hanging on to his breath.
"Master—" The girl opened her eyes with difficulty.
Yuan, who was hurrying with the girl on his back, was stunned when he heard the voice.
Awake?
Yuan smiled and asked, "How do you feel?" What's uncomfortable? ”
The girl thought that she would be reprimanded, and she dragged her feet in this kind of undead land. What I didn't expect to hear was concern.
For a while, tears welled up in his eyes, and he sobbed: "Master... My friends who remain in the human kingdom may be dead..."
Yuan was silent for a moment, but he didn't expect that the reason was a heart knot.
"You calm me down, people will always die, the important thing is the way to live now."
"Woo, woo.." The girl's tears still couldn't be stopped, like a dam that was soiled and drained into the flood, trying to pour out all her pain.
"Are you stupid? To say such a thing to a crying girl? It doesn't work everywhere! An Luoli caressed the girl and glared at Yuan.
Ahh This guy is unexpectedly gentle...
Gen chose to keep his mouth shut, and quietly watched as An Luoli comforted the girl softly.
……
The girl is lost in the dark, and the pain in her heart cannot be extricated.
But there was still a warm light in the darkness, and the girl finally grasped this warmth, only to find that it was a strong back.
"It's coming soon, hold on a little longer." Yuan kept galloping forward, and there were skeletons chasing after him, but because of the lack of speed, he chose to give up.
A hint of blush floated on the girl's face, and the warmth she had always felt was a lifesaver, and it turned out to be the owner's back. I don't know how tightly I grasp the sky.
If this kind of thinking is known to the source, it must be a great cry of sin.
On the one hand, I will sigh that the brainwashing and indoctrination of the slave is really terrible, and on the other hand, I will be a little ashamed, because he is really comfortable carrying his sister on his back, cough.
"It's not far, cross the valley in front of you, and you're there!"
Gen felt the vitality of the vegetation from the valley in front of him, which was the opposite of the land of the dead, like two extremes.
……
Not long after, Yuan carried the girl on his back and stepped into the valley. Full of vitality and refreshing.
"To..."
Yuan was about to speak happily, but his pupils suddenly shrank and he quickly retreated. An Luoli behind her also changed her complexion, and she was extremely pale.
"Heh, Lu, you guessed right, Her Royal Highness the princess will come from here."
Two elegant men of the elven clan walked out of the valley and walked towards the valley mouth, one of them said with a smile.
