Two years ago, Xu Qiu and several others disappeared and never returned.

That incident was a turning point for humanity.

Since that disappearance, it is not only Xu Qiu and a few people, but also Moore.

The search party found Moore's greatsword, but not Mohr himself.

There is speculation that Moore and Xu Qiu were both buried in Spider Valley.

This speculation is not unfounded, most mages are aware of the dangers of Spider Valley.

It makes sense to say that they were really buried in the Spider Valley.

But at the same time, after that incident, the search party brought new mage knowledge.

Although that knowledge only exists in the form of a circle pattern, and the pattern is still obscure.

Since then, however, the mages have been working on these patterns and have continued to produce results.

The magic circle pattern brought by the search team has forcibly increased the strength of the mages in the city several times.

It was once just an ordinary beast, but it was very difficult to deal with.

But later, after they mastered some of the magic circle patterns, they organized a team of mages, and they were able to destroy the alien beasts easily.

Shangjiang City sent another exploration team to get in touch with Qingyun City, and after the two cities joined forces, they cleared the alien beasts in the middle zone.

Between the two cities, the beasts were nearly wiped out, and it gradually became a training ground for new mages.

Because the people who brought the circle patterns were all government mages, they had more power and knowledge.

Because of the checks and balances between the Mage Council and the government-sent mages, the Mage Council used to take the initiative, but now, the power of the Mage Council has been weakened too much.

The original members of the Mage Council were also forced to take a back seat, and were gradually taken over by mages sent by the government.

As a result, the committee has basically become a government faction.

The biggest mistake of the former Mage Council was to admit More as a member.

This became the trigger for their downfall, and the incident of Moore chasing and killing Xu Qiu and other students was the source of anger among the majority of mages.

Under the leadership of the people represented by the search party, they had to retreat.

After all, the search team used to have a magic circle pattern from the big fish, which is the core interest of the mages today, and they can easily dominate the public opinion of the mages in the city.

Of course, among them, the most active opponent of the former committee members is Yan Yan.

Of course, it is also because the promotion of the rumors is in line with the government's line, so it can be completed smoothly.

Yan Yan also became one of the members of the new Mage Council, and his status rose to the top.

He often goes to accompany Wang Sulan, but after Xu Qiu's disappearance, Wang Sulan's whole spirit is very sluggish.

She quit her job and was in a state of depression every day.

Yan Yan often came to visit, but Wang Sulan rarely paid attention to him.

Yan Yan knew that in Wang Sulan's heart, Xu Qiu occupied the main position.

And he may only occupy a very small position.

But how could he be jealous in this matter.

He often enlightened Wang Sulan and made her believe that Xu Qiu might still be alive.

Although Wang Sulan understood that the chances of Xu Qiu surviving were extremely small, it was probably because she wanted to numb herself, and she would rather believe Yan Yan's words.

As a result, Wang Sulan would often go to the edge of the city and sit for most of the day, waiting for Xu Qiu's return.

Over time, it has become almost a daily routine for her.

All year round, rain or shine, she would go to the edge of the city every day to wait for Xu Qiu's return.

She is very grateful to Yan Yan in her heart, and in the past two years, if she hadn't been enlightened and accompanied by Yan Yan, she would have been unable to think about it.

But her mood really can't be too close to Yan Yan.

She only has her son in her heart now, and her son is her sky, if Xu Qiu dies, her sky will fall.

In the past two years, the two have not talked about the relationship between the two once, and sometimes, Yan Yan just kept silent and sat with Wang Sulan for a few hours.

In the past two years, Wang Sulan has gone from a slightly chubby woman to now emaciated.

Yan Yan felt distressed, but Wang Sulan didn't eat a bite of the nutritious food he brought to Wang Sulan.

Yan Yan didn't want Xu Qiu to really die, if Xu Qiu really died, I believe Wang Sulan wouldn't be able to live.

has known each other for so long, and in his heart, he can't let go of this stubborn and stubborn woman.

They are all middle-aged, and they will not fall in love like young people, they may be very serious and subtle when they talk about feelings.

But now, he doesn't even have that implicit opportunity.

Originally, his daughter Shangxue was against them being together.

But after two years, Shang Xue gradually stopped caring about this matter.

Because she also has some sympathy in her heart for this woman who may lose her son.

She doesn't like Wang Sulan, but her disdain for Wang Sulan has almost disappeared.

In fact, Wang Sulan didn't care about anything at all, even if Shang Xue encouraged them to be together now, Wang Sulan didn't have that mood anymore.

Over the years, Wang Sulan has never left Xu Qiu for a day since she gave birth to Xu Qiu.

She had long been accustomed to being with Xu Qiu every day, but now she hadn't seen her for two years.

This kind of torment can only be deeply experienced by a mother and son from a single-parent family like her, who depend on each other.

Every night, she wakes up from a nightmare, in which Xu Qiu always experiences a life-and-death crisis.

But she never saw Xu Qiu really die in a dream, maybe it was psychological comfort, maybe it was superstition, Wang Sulan always felt that Xu Qiu might not really be dead.

Today, Wang Sulan, as usual, sits on the edge of the city, looking into the distance.

That direction was the direction of Spider Valley, and Yan Yan told her that if Xu Qiu came back, he would probably come back from that direction.

So, Wang Sulan believes that one day, Xu Qiu will return to her from that direction.

Today's Yan Yan didn't have time to wait with her, in fact, not only today, but also the recent Yan Yan was very busy, busy with the affairs of the mage committee.

But in fact, it doesn't matter, even if Yan Yan is here, she can't actually say a few words to Yan Yan.

She just needs to look into the distance quietly like this and wait quietly for Xu Qiu to return.

She didn't eat for a day, she didn't feel hungry, she was used to it, and she only ate one or two meals a day.

She hadn't eaten breakfast since Xu Qiu left.

Because of this, her stomach often hurts.

But in fact, sometimes, physical pain can often alleviate the pain in the heart.

Therefore, Wang Sulan didn't mind this stomach problem, although Yan Yan often persuaded her to go to the hospital to recuperate her stomach, but Wang Sulan just stubbornly didn't listen.

Suddenly, the feeling of stomach pain came up again, Wang Sulan frowned, closed her eyes, and covered her abdomen.

Recently, the stomach pain has become more and more serious.

She was afraid that she would have an incurable disease one day, and she would not be able to wait for the day when Xu Qiu would come back.

But she didn't want to give up waiting for Xu Qiu every day.
