In the middle of summer, the sun shines brightly through the gaps in the leaves of the not-so-dense trees on the shore of the lake, and falls on the meadows with unknown green, yellow, and purple flowers.

The surface of the beautiful Lake Cerin is as clear as a mirror, reflecting the blue sky and the clouds, and occasionally a few unnamed fish appear on the surface of the lake, making a mischievous splash and causing ripples.

On the lush shore of the lake, the silver-haired boy and the girl in the white dress stopped and looked at the green scenery with some surprise.

Unconsciously, he and her have also become a beautiful landscape.

The silver-haired boy was wearing pitch-black hard leather armor, steel shoulder pads wrapped around his right shoulder, his left arm revealing a vigorous and powerful black totem, and his wrists wrapped with magic bandages, and the whole person had a solemn aura.

There was a bit of sharpness between his eyebrows, like a sharp sword, with a sharp edge.

His eyes showed a faint vigilance, which was imprinted in his bones, an ability that could only be formed in countless bloody battles, and he could always be vigilant no matter what kind of atmosphere he was in.

What is surprising is that in this boy named Kane, there is no arrogance and vanity that a person of his age should have.

"Kane, Lake Serin! this place has been here for a long time. ”

The girl's voice was like a song, her tone was warm, and the appearance of the teenager was reflected in her crystal clear eyes.

She is made of jade bones, her body is weak, holy and captivating.

She has long, flowing hair that falls behind her back, making her look unparalleled.

She is dressed like a snow-white dress, and the white dress has golden tassels and border patterns that symbolize light, and the lines are beautifully intertwined, making her like an angel wearing a golden veil.

In the soft sunlight, the golden cross necklace she wore around her jade neck reflected a dazzling luster.

Boy: "......"

Against the backdrop of this beautiful scenery, the girl looks dreamy and beautiful, and the silver-haired boy's gaze is dull for a moment.

"Kane, is it good-looking?" the girl looked at the boy with interest.

"Ahem...... Cough. He coughed lightly in embarrassment.

The young man then tilted his head to the other side, a little puzzled, "You've been here?"

The girl nodded slightly, "Well, actually...... Before I was adopted by the Holy See of Light, I lived in a village near Lake Serin. ”

"Uh......"

The boy looked left and right in astonishment, and saw that there was a road just north of Lake Serin, where several hares frolicked.

The place where Xindi agreed to meet was actually the place where she was born!

"I have so many beautiful and precious memories of this place," the girl trotted to the flowery shore of Lake Cerling, turning and smiling at the boy, "although the memories have faded after so long, I still remember the happy times of that time. ”

The boy also smiled involuntarily, unfortunately he didn't have a good childhood, just repeated training.

These days, the heart that has been exhausted by running around and working hard can finally be relaxed, and the young man is very happy physically and mentally.

The girl squatted down and plucked the flowers and plants, and then picked one of them, very excited: "I remember when I was a child, there was an old uncle who said that there was a kind of flower and plant in Lake Serin that was about to disappear, called Serin grass, and only we had it in Lake Serin, and I was often proud of it at that time, and I later learned that it was just a rare aquatic plant......

This was the first time the boy had seen her with heartfelt pleasure, he had rarely seen her smile in the previous two months in the Eternal Forest, the Snow Plains, and the Elven Temple, and he always looked sentimental.

Thinking of this, the young man couldn't help but be happy.

"These memories give me hope and strength to overcome the past every time I encounter difficulties. ”

As she spoke, the girl got up, took a few steps closer to the vast lake of Serin, and threw the grass in her hand so that it drew an arc in the air and fell to the blue lake, splashing the waves.

The girl turned to look at the boy, her pretty face full of anticipation, and asked, "Would you really like to go to the village and see it, Kane?"

The young man thought for a moment and shook his head, "Next time, Holy Maiden, Xindi may have been waiting for us for a long time, so it's important to meet him first." ”

The girl was entangled, "Can ...... But Xindi, too, could be in the village of Serin, where he lived with me when he was a child......"

"Huh? Xindi...... He's known you since childhood?" the boy was shocked.

"Well, I'm sorry I didn't tell you, I'm the Holy Maiden of the Empire, and Xindi is from the Areni Empire...... I am not very good at announcing the truth to the outside world, and if the Pope knows, he will definitely suspect my collusion with foreign enemies......"

The girl's head hung slightly, her eyes dodged, as if she was hiding something.

In the bright sunlight, the boy's gaze rested on her through the grass between him and her.

"That's right...... Well, let's go to the village of Cerling, no wonder that Xindi guy wants to set the location at Cerling Lake......"

The boy agreed to her double request, he didn't want to know about the relationship between Xindi and the saint, many times the truth is like a cabbage, often peeling off a layer and another layer.

"Yay, Kane, I'll lead the way, I don't know if the old uncle who loves to plant fruit trees in the village of Cerin is still there, and I used to ask for fruit from him when I was a child......"

“......”

The boy looked at the excited girl, smiled helplessly, and followed her to the verdant road, which frightened several hares to flee in panic.

He had some concerns, since the saint and Xindi had known each other since childhood, then he was relieved, but, how to say goodbye when the time came?

The boy walked behind the girl with a steady step, patrolling the area around Lake Serin from time to time to ensure her safety.

"Kane, Xindi was very cute when he was a child, whether it was a windy day or a rainy day, he had to accompany me to Cerin Lake to watch the sunset, no matter what he said, he didn't listen, but he was frail and sickly, and sometimes he was sick for more than ten days......"

He smiled slightly in response to the girl, listening to her excitedly talk about the good times of her childhood, while thinking about the Xu family's bloody case two months ago.

Teenagers and girls bask in the warm sunshine and walk on the wild road with the singing of birds and flowers, the branches and leaves of a few sparse trees on the road are swaying with the wind, making a "rustling" sound, and a few colorful butterflies are dancing because of their fascination with the flowers and plants, making this place beautiful and peaceful.

Two months ago, there was a bloody case in the capital of the empire that shocked the whole country - the Xu family in the capital city was wiped out by unknown forces!

The Holy See of Light was furious and launched a nationwide crackdown, causing turmoil throughout the empire.

In this bloody case, the only seedling of the Xu family died at his hands and was angry to death.

Because he took out a bottle of potion like a purple glow and gently placed it in front of Xu Dan, Xu Dan, who had just been seriously injured, was so angry that he vomited blood and died.

At the beginning, the Order asked him to send two bottles of [Contract Water] to the Xu family, so that Xu Zhan could stop and not affect the grand plan of the Li Order.

But he was afraid that Xu Zhan would turn his face and not recognize anyone after taking the potion, so he only gave the Xu family a bottle of [Contract Water], and originally wanted to give him the remaining bottle after Xu Zhan withdrew, but Xu Zhan was very tough.

So, he picked up the bright blue light.

He loved the weapon so much, and the bonuses were so shocking that he didn't tell anyone in the Order.

Although he obtained the artifact [Baizhang Bing], he did not dare to use it easily, first, for fear of being exposed and confiscated by the sect master, and second, the power of the contract above was too strong.

Even [Water of Contract] can't wash the contract away!

Every time you use it, [Baizhang Ice] will resist him little by little, and after resisting for a long time, it will burst out tons of counter-devouring damage, and even strangle him!
