The desert is a place where people can't see hope, but they can't see despair.

Destroyed by darkness, reborn by protection.

The vast yellow sand flew all over the sky, like the souls that had once been extinguished on this land, wandering in all directions, with nowhere to return.

This is also the place where Lu Yu came to this world for the first time and descended.

In the desert, there is one of the most dazzling pearls———— desert in the clouds.

In the desert in the clouds, the three largest forces known now are Yucheng, Duhufu, and Thousand Cave City.

However, the Thousand Caves City has been destroyed by the Demon Seed, leaving only the broken statue of the Sage and the library guarded by the Inheritor.

Originally, the Desert in the Clouds was the most shining area above the vast desert, home to many beautiful cities and the center of trade brought about by the convergence of civilizations.

It was once prosperous, with trade and exchange between various races.

However, peace and beauty did not last, but was completely shattered by the demon seed born of desire.

The war destroyed the desert in the clouds, not only taking people's lives, but also causing the civilization here to collapse.

The desert in the clouds, like a delicate flower, withered in an instant, leaving only an empty city.

It wasn't until the footprints of the Great Wall Guards set foot on this land again, that they leaped on the horse, in the name of protection, that they once again brought light to this lost land.

The Great Wall Guards are not only responsible for guarding the Great Wall, but also guarding the safety of the desert in the clouds.

The Duhufu was also established by the army of Chang'an, and the purpose was to guard the desert in the clouds.

However, the Metropolitan Protectorate has been invaded by demons all year round, and has been shrouded in the smoke of gunpowder.

And Mulan, who recently learned that the demon species operating in the area of the Metropolitan Protectorate seemed to have become active, so she led her men to observe the situation.

She only brought Lu Yu with her, while Kai and the others continued to stay in the Great Wall.

As for why she only let Lu Yu be her follower......

It's a bit intriguing.

A pair of people and horses, Hao Hao Tang Tang, stepped on the yellow sand, drove in the vast desert, breaking the wind.

"Lu Yu, do you remember this endless desert?"

was riding a horse, Mulan suddenly asked.

Because he couldn't ride a horse, Lu Yu was fortunate to sit on the same horse as Mulan.

Feeling the faint fragrance coming from in front of him, coupled with his hands at this time, he hugged the woman's waist for the first time, Lu Yu couldn't help but feel a little flustered, and he didn't even listen to what Mulan said.

"Lu Yu? Lu Yu! ”

Mulan's tone became a little angry, but there was no change in expression on her cheeks, which were covered by the silver helmet.

"Ahhh

Lu Yu hurriedly responded, his expression a little embarrassed.

"I ask you, do you remember this desert?"

Hua Mulan asked the question again.

"Of course, this is the first time I've worn ...... Ahh ”

Lu Yu's mind turned quickly, and he said with a smile.

"Looks like you have a pretty good memory."

Mulan's tone seemed to be quite satisfied, and she immediately focused her attention on driving.

Soon, this group of men and horses, through the wind and sand and the occasional hurricane, came to the capital palace.

As the huge city appeared in front of you, the smoke of gunpowder that represented the flames of war rose at the same time.

"Soldiers, follow me to slay the demon seed!"

For the sense of murder and war, Mulan is very sensitive, and she noticed the Duhu Mansion at the time, and fell into a bitter battle at this time.

Pulling out the double swords, the sharp sword light instantly cut through the flying sand scattered around her body, and Mulan took the lead in rushing to the front.

Lu Yu did not hesitate, took down the broken army, and went with Mulan.

"Ding! Side quest opens, destroy the demon seed that invaded the Metropolitan Protectorate, reward gold*10000, and increase physical attack by 50 points! ”

Ten thousand gold coins?

That's right, once you've completed the quest, you'll have enough money to open new skill slots.

Lu Yu's fighting spirit was great, just like the broken army in his hands at this moment, he burst out with a terrifying momentum.

At this time, he was already more experienced than when he fought with the demon army before, and he also had stronger strength than at that time, so this time he had no fear, and went directly to the battlefield with Mulan.

Sure enough, when they arrived at the north gate of the Metropolitan Protectorate, they found that the soldiers guarding the gate were struggling to fight against the demon seeds.

"Kill!"

With a crane-like roar, Mulan swung her twin swords, her body was light and swift as lightning, and she first cast the two-stage displacement of the Void Split, and soon approached the demon seed, and then used the whirling dance to throw the light sword away, directly taking the life of a demon seed.

"Good!"

Seeing that Hua Mulan had already killed a demon seed with a lightning-like attitude, Lu Yu also had a sharp rise in fighting spirit, and cast a backwater battle, quickly used it to approach the demon seed, and immediately swept a blow, like a sweep, directly breaking all the demon seeds around him.

The soldiers behind him also threw themselves into the battle, and the guards who were fighting hard saw that someone had increased their numbers, and once again gathered their fighting spirit and resisted to the death.

The number of demon seeds attacking the north gate is not very large, and most of them are low-level demon seeds, which is just a piece of cake for Lu Yu and them, and they will all be eliminated quickly.

"Huh, Lu Yu, you're doing well."

Gently slapping Lu Yu's shoulder in praise, Mulan smiled.

"Ding! Mulan's opinion is increased by 20 points. ”

Regarding the improvement of favorability, Lu Yu is now only eager to quickly rise to 300 points, so that he can establish a relationship.

"Thank you! Without you, we might not be able to hold on! ”

The remaining guards guarding the north gate bowed and thanked them one by one, if it wasn't for Mulan and them to arrive, I am afraid that this time it will be more auspicious.

"What about the generals of the Protectorate? Where did it go? Is it the only force you have now? ”

Hua Mulan asked, in fact, as soon as she came to the Metropolitan Mansion, she already felt an ominous feeling.

"Because of the frequent activity of the demon seed in the desert in the clouds in the past few days, the chief led a team of men and horses to the area ahead."

The guard replied that the chief's original trip was to find the truth about the activity of the demon seed, but he never thought that just after leaving, the capital protection mansion was attacked by the demon seed.

"What is the direction of the other three gates in the east and west?"

"The other three gates are estimated to have eliminated the demon seed, because the north gate is the weakest point, so the demon seed is also the most powerful attack."

Sure enough, when the guards had just finished speaking, the guards from the other three gates rushed over.

"I've seen the captain!"

All the guards saluted Mulan respectfully, and they all knew that this woman's prestige resounded throughout the desert.
