The sandstorm finally stopped, and the yellow sand calmed down. Jade Tilting City hurriedly rushed to the decisive battle site, only to see the demon blood stains lying on the ground, looking weakly into the sky.

Jade Allure knew that the demon blood mark was the sequelae of using the magic bead. The Orb allows the upper echelons of the Demon Cult to have some strange abilities for a certain period of time, such as the Demon Chain that increases the distance after locking on to the target, the undead body that automatically repairs, and the significant enhancement of the attack effect. However, the price of using the orb is that the user's true qi will be gradually assimilated by the demonic power, and the assimilated true qi will no longer be controlled by the user. If the demonic power is not expelled in time, the demonic power will quickly assimilate the true qi of the user's whole body, turning the user into a wasted person. And even if the demonic power is exorcized, the true qi that has been assimilated will slowly erode the normal true qi, and if you actively operate the true qi at this time, it will only accelerate this process. What's worse is that the true qi that has been assimilated can only be dissolved, and it cannot be restored to normal, which means that using the magic bead will definitely cause a great loss of one's strength.

"Uncle Bloodstain, where's Lin Han?"

Demon Blood shook his head and said, "Ran away." ”

"Ran away?" Jade Allure was shocked, she really couldn't imagine that Luo Han could escape in the hands of the demon blood stain who used the magic bead.

"He fell into the quicksand, if it wasn't a coincidence, it must have been his preparation in advance." Demon Blood Stain sat up from the ground, pointed to the place where Luo Han disappeared and said, "I really can't imagine that he can not only control the sandstorm, but also the quicksand. ”

After a pause, the demon blood mark said again: "Demon power, plus I blessed the injury with the power of the devil, half of the true qi in my body has been demonized, and I no longer listen to my call." Now I can only return to the Western Fan Kingdom as soon as possible, and ask Ke Jie to help me slowly dissolve the true qi that has been assimilated. ”

"That Lin Han ......"

"Although I won and lost this battle, my strength has been greatly damaged since then, and I can't afford to fight him, that's it, that's it."

At this moment, under the quicksand next to her, the Star Queen heartily used her spiritual power to support the quicksand and dig Luo Han out of the sand little by little. With the psychic induction of both sides, the Star Queen could accurately find Luo Han's location.

Finally, Luo Han was dug out of the yellow sand, and the Star Queen let go of her spiritual power, and the quicksand slid down a little more.

It is an underground river where the sand falling from above is piled up on the bank in the shape of a pyramid, and an underground river flows babbling to the south. The Star Queen carried Luo Han along the river all the way north, and after walking for a few hours, she walked out of an abandoned building and saw the sun again.

This underground river connects to that oasis and is the source of the lake. Luo Han didn't practice at all when he drilled into the lake a few times ago, but entered the Linxia River through the inlet in the wrong direction, looking for an easy exit. He had met with the Star Queen before, and in addition to informing her of the underground river exit, he had also made her leave a spiritual mark in the river. In this way, Luo Han can perceive the location of the river above the desert, and now the duel deliberately keeps his position near the river, once he falls into a desperate situation, he uses his spiritual power to destroy the rock formations above the river, let the yellow sand flow down, and bury himself in the quicksand Zheng Erxing Queen as insurance, and she has always been in the river, waiting to rescue Luo Han in time.

It's an abandoned village, like the remnants of a parched oasis. The Star Queen has stockpiled a lot of food here, and drinking water can be taken from the underground river, so it is not a problem to live for a while. Luo Han will recuperate here until he has regained a certain strength before he can return to the oasis, and then use the oasis as a benchmark to go to other strongholds in Huangshazhou.

This desert duel was only known to a few people from the Demon Sect and Huangshazhou, and afterwards Luo Han hid and recuperated from his injuries, and the demon blood traces secretly returned to the Western Fan Kingdom under the escort of Jade Fall City, so it didn't cause any movement.

It's just that the Demon Sect suddenly began to recruit sect members in Jingyang and Jingyang Prefectures, and then quickly evacuated its people to Yizhou and Jiaozhou, giving up the territory of the two states that had been fought hard.

Regarding the "bloodless recapture of the huge territory, the Righteous Path Alliance said that it had been expected, so it did not take advantage of the situation to attack before, reducing a large number of casualties.

However, the most surprising thing is that the Demon Sect suddenly canceled the order to hunt and kill Lin Han, the son of the red fox, and Zhengdao inquired several times to know that Lin Han had become the head of Huangshazhou and hid in the vast desert.

Half a month later, in the oasis where the Demon Blood Stain was inhabited by a few people, more than 100 disciples of Huangshazhou returned to the house after cleaning up and doing their morning homework, avoiding the scorching sun at noon. In the calm water of the lake, a head suddenly popped up, and Luo Han climbed out of the lake, walked to a newly built house, and knocked on the door.

"Who? What do you do without sleeping at noon? An impatient voice came from the room, the door was opened, and a young disciple poked his head out, saw Luo Han, and asked suspiciously, "Who are you?" ”

Luo Han didn't say anything, and took out a camel-like seal.

The young disciple was shocked, and suddenly knelt down and said, "Disciple Chen Zihao, I have seen the master. ”

Luo Han was not polite, and walked straight to the room and said lightly: "Who are you talking about here, let him come to see me." Also, borrow a few clothes from you to wear. ”

"Yes, disciple, let's do it."

When Chen Zihao came back, Luo Han had already changed out of his wet clothes and put them on the window to dry.

"Master, Senior Sister Zhou Xi is here."

Luo Han looked over, and Chen Zihao came back with a woman, Luo Han remembered, it should be Zhou Fen's cousin, after Zhou Fen took power, the chicken dog was promoted, and her relatives and friends also became the high-level of Huangshazhou.

Zhou Xi saw Luo Han and hurriedly saluted: "After the decisive battle between the head of the sect and the demon blood trace, there is no news, I don't know if there is a big problem?" ”

Luo Han frowned, and said coldly: "Do you look like I'm going wrong?" ”

Zhou Xi hurriedly said: "The disciple just cares about the master, and has no other meaning." ”

Luo Han snorted and said, "My saber was lost during the duel with the Demon Blood Trace, so I think it should have been taken away by them. Immediately let Zhou Fen arrange, except for the necessary people left behind, everyone else will go to me to find out where my sword has fallen. Whoever gets the exact news will be rewarded for it, and whoever slacks off will not blame me for being unkind. ”

"Yes, sir. The disciple went to contact Sister Fen in person. ”

Luo Han waited for Zhou Xi to leave, shook his head, and walked around the desert by himself, taking back the dragon stick that was left there at the beginning. These things that can be controlled remotely are sensitive to him, and as long as they are not trained by others, they can completely know the location within a certain distance. It's just that the Worm Sword is no longer in its original place, and it must have been taken away. Fortunately, after several refinements, the Worm Sword has long had a spirit, and only Luo Han can urge it, and he is not worried about being taken by others as his own

As for Luo Han's set of armor, it was left in Luo Han's place to raise him, and he may still need it in the future.

After three days, hundreds of Huangshazhou disciples walked out of the desert in groups and dispersed into groups to enter the Xifan Kingdom and Yizhou respectively, to be ordered to find out the whereabouts of the Worm Sword.

Luo Han has ninety percent confidence that Jade Allure City and Demon Blood Marks took away the Worm Sword, but he knows that those people at the top of the Demon Sect don't use swords, and if they get the Worm Sword, they will either throw it in the treasure house of the Demon Sect and leave it idle, or reward it to the master who uses the sword in the sect, and it is difficult to guess where it will be.

Luo Han himself quietly went to Sizhou to see Guan Ling. Guan Ling usually lives in Sizhou, and only goes out and walks around when his hands are itchy. According to Zhou Fen, the Demon Sect has retreated back to the two states of Xifan Kingdom and Yijiao, and even the halls in other places have disappeared, obviously because the Demon Nightmare began to shrink its strength after his death. In today's Xifan Kingdom and Yizhou, the strength of the Demon Sect is concentrated, and it is not a place where Luo Han can go casually. Although Mingmian's wanted notice was revoked, if Luo Han dared to appear there, he would definitely not be pleased, so Luo Han needed Guan Ling's help to help him get it back after knowing the whereabouts of the Worm Sword.

Sizhou Longcheng is where the son is located, the capital of this dynasty. Luo Han, who was transformed into a bearded face, walked into Dragon City with a stick on his shoulder, looked at the bustling crowd on the street, and the capital guards who walked by from time to time, and secretly sighed. No wonder this dynasty dares to let the martial artists go, just the captains of these guards, their strength is also a real master in the martial arts, and in those famous factions, it is also the level of elite disciples.

According to the address given by Guan Ling, Luo Han walked to a mansion, saw the word "Guan" on the plaque, and went up to buckle the door knocker. After a while, a family member opened a crack in the door and asked, "Who is here?" ”

Luo Han said: "Please inform your master, the people who travel with Luoyue Mountain come to visit." ”

"Wait a minute."

The family closed the door and went back to report, Luo Han shook his head and looked at the mansion, the real identity of this thief was a side branch of the Guan clan of the Longcheng Wang clan, named Guan Yi. The ancestors of the Guan family have the merit of protecting the dragon, the hereditary title, and there are people in each generation who hold important positions in the court. No one would have imagined that the famous "four-handed and thousand-faced thief" on the rivers and lakes would be born in this real family.

Not long after, the family came back and opened the door, and said respectfully: "The master invites the distinguished guest to the study for a while." ”

Luo Han followed the family through the courtyard, turned left and right, and came to the study. The housekeeper knocked on the door and said, "Master, the distinguished guest has arrived." ”

"Well, you should step back first. No one should bother without my orders. ”

"Yes." The family left first. Luo Han knocked on the door and said, "It's me." ”

"Come in."

Pushing the door in, Guan Ling, who was not disguised, sat at the desk with a book, and said lightly: "Close the door." ”

Luo Han closed the door, walked over and hugged his fists and said, "Brother Guan, I haven't thanked you for the rescue last time." ”

Guan Ling shook his head: "There is no need to mention that matter." What are you doing this time? ”

Luo Han said: "First, it is to reminisce about the past, and secondly, there is indeed a place where Brother Guan needs help." ”

"If there's something to do."

"That's right, a few days ago, I was in a duel with Demon Blood Stain in the desert, and I accidentally lost my sword. According to my guess, it must have been taken away by the demon bloodstains. I've already mobilized my subordinates to inquire, but you also know that I'm not good at appearing in the Demon Sect's territory right now, so if there is a whereabouts of the sword, I want to ask Brother Guan to help me retrieve it. ”

Guan Ling nodded: "This is no problem." It just so happens that I've been idle at home lately, so I'll go out for a walk with you. ”

Luo Han nodded, and suddenly asked, "Is there any news from Ximenyuan?" ”

Guan Ling paused and said, "I heard a few days ago that the Ximen family was on an errand in the Longcheng Guard, and the people who were arrested by Ximen Yuan and the Ximen family have been released, and I don't know where they went. ”

Luo Han smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid Ximen Yuan hates me to death now." ”

Guan Ling shook his head: "You don't need to blame yourself, the Demon Sect is arrogant and domineering, even if there is no such thing, the Ximen family is in the territory of the Demon Sect, and sooner or later it will be destroyed." This time, the Demon Sect attacked the Ximen family without any evidence, and arrested the clansmen to force you to come forward, what Ximen Yuan should hate is that the Demon Sect is not you. And Ximen Yuan was able to get out, it should be because you agreed to fight a duel with the demon blood trace. ”

Luo Han said helplessly: "This is the rivers and lakes, the weak eat the strong, and the big fists do everything."

"Don't be sentimental, it just so happens that you control the yellow sandbank, I have long wanted to go to the desert to see, why don't I go to you and wait for news."

"Well, too"

Guan Ling greeted the people in the house, and went out with Luo Han, just about to leave, a sneaky figure was found by Luo Han in the corner probing his brain.

Luo Han coughed and said, "Don't hide it, I have already smelled the smell of fat powder on your body." ”

Peony bee jumped out and said, "Hu, how can there be any fat powder smell?" I have washed my hands in a golden basin. ”

Guan Ling squinted and said, "You? Wash hands of? Was the tool confiscated by a chivalrous woman? ”

Peony Bee glared at Guan Ling, and said to Guan Ling with his nostrils: "Master, I have made up my mind to change my mind and be a handsome son, and I will never touch those dirty things in the past again." ”

"It's not like it's not ...... yet"

Luo Han interrupted Guan Ling and laughed: "This is a good thing, but I'm curious, you can't change eating, why do you suddenly want to change your mind?" ”

Peony Bee said unhappily: "What's the matter?" What a, what a, that's ugly. I want to be a good person because I have someone I really like, can't I? ”

Luo Han arched his hand: "Congratulations." ”

Guan Ling said: "Whose girl is so unlucky that you take a fancy to her?" ”

The peony bee twisted, and it took a long time to spit out the two words that made Luo Han and Guan Ling fall down: "Princess." ”

Guan Ling cleaned up his mood and said: "Lewd thief, I am very pleased that you have changed your mind and become a new person, but please be a little self-aware, can you provoke this identity of a princess?" ”

Peony Bee sighed: "I know, but I can't control my feelings." Anyway, I'm not in the mood to pick flowers now, so I want to talk to you to relieve my boredom. By the way, where are you and Lin Han going? ”

Guan Ling went through the matter, and Peony Bee said: "I haven't been to the desert either, I'll go with you, if you need help, I can also help." ”

Luo Han has no opinion, anyway, he is quite bored in the desert alone, after all, there is an age difference with Guan Ling, and he still has more topics to talk about with Peony Bee. So the three of them went out of the city together, found a place to change their appearance and changed their disguises, and returned to Liangzhou together, entered the desert, and waited for the news of the worm sword together in the yellow sandbank.
