The yellow sand is long, and the clouds are faint.

Thousand Nights City and that haze had long been left behind, and the horse-drawn carriage procession on the return journey was very slow, because they wanted to take care of the carriage in the team, so everyone deliberately slowed down.

"Is Captain Xia Fan better?" asked the leader of the Dragoon Mercenary Regiment as he rode a horse to the backlit carriage.

"Thank you, Brother Fan's situation is still relatively stable. Blazing Sun seemed a little depressed, absentmindedly driving the carriage.

Seeing that Blazing Yang was in a low mood, the brand crown nodded and didn't say anything more.

Xia Fan's situation is indeed very worrying, Xia Fan after the sword of the wind god has been injured at all, but fortunately, thanks to the fine wisp of long clothes to protect his body, Xia Fan's internal organs have not been harmed.

Fortunately, with Kaoru Xiao on the side carefully healing, the flesh and blood on Xia Fan's body came back to life quickly, and there was no major problem.

But Xia Fan never woke up, and Ling Yu and Fei Yi and others took care of Xia Fan sleeplessly.

Thousand Nights City was almost half of the city collapsed by Xia Fan's sword, and when everyone ran out of the royal city, the entire royal city collapsed with a bang, slowly sinking into the yellow sand. The people simply fled out of the Thousand Nights City.

The strange ghouls that filled the city before were no longer a threat, because the Soul Eater Demon Tree, which specialized in absorbing souls, had been completely destroyed, and in the process of leaving the city, people found that the Soul Eater Demon Tree was intertwined, and its roots and branches stretched to every inch of land under the Thousand Nights City, which was the main culprit of people's soul loss after being injured.

The "Thousand Nights Emperor" who manipulated the ghost town behind the scenes is also gone, and this Thousand Nights City should finally become history.

And when the people completely left the Thousand Nights City, they saw that the entire Thousand Nights City was gradually buried by the endless yellow sand.

At this time, even if Thousand Nights City is unearthed again, it is just an ordinary ancient ruin of broken walls.

However, the most happy thing is that Yingluo used the Jade of the Soul to help those who had been injured recently to keep their souls intact, and Yingluo also prayed with the soul to help those who got rid of the resentment and demonic energy that remained in the soul, so that all of them were grateful and admired by the people who were backlight.

And those ancient remnants who had been bound and tortured by the Soul Eater Demon Tree, Yingluo purified them to the extreme, and the kindness and holiness displayed by Yingluo made everyone respect, and regarded them as holy maidens, and did not dare to blaspheme.

As for Ye Ling and Yue Qing, Yingluo reverently extradited them to reincarnation.

At the time of parting, Yueqing gave Mu Soul Bi to Yingluo, and also left many of the spells she had learned in her life in Fei Yi's mind. And Ye Ling had already given Ling Yu the ancient book that recorded many ancient Xuan Arrays.

And the others were not for nothing, Blazing Yang broke through the shackles of True Dou in the battle of life and death, and advanced to the Extreme Dou realm.

Under the struggle against the soul of the demon sword and blood, Yin Chenyin has also made great progress in meditation, and he has already vaguely broken through the extreme underworld and opened up the power of the heart chakra.

After leaving Thousand Nights City, the surviving people naturally decided to return to Lonely Smoke City to resume their lives. After a short distance of sand dunes, the people found their previous guide and the caravan and set off slowly......

Along the way, everyone waited for Xia Fan day and night, and Yingluo never left an inch all day long, constantly praying for Xia Fan's requiem, hoping that Xia Fan would wake up soon.

Xia Fan's body had almost recovered under the nourishment of Shioru's elixir, but Xia Fan never woke up.

Lingyu, Yingluo, and Feiyi couldn't help but wash their faces with tears all day long, blaming themselves for being too weak in cultivation and not helping Xia Fan, who was so seriously injured.

In fact, Lingyu, Yingluo, and Feiyi's performance in Thousand Nights City was very important, and if it weren't for everyone's joint efforts, Xia Fan would not have been able to defeat the Demon God Body, nor would it be possible to destroy the Soul Eater Demon Array.

It's just that Xia Fan overdrew his life and soul, although his body was resurrected quickly on the surface because of the effect of the elixir, but his soul still needed to recover slowly......

A few days later, the team finally returned to Lonely Smoke City, and someone had already returned early to report the situation to Lonely Smoke City, and Lonely Smoke City held a grand welcome ceremony to welcome the team's return.

The people in the team were also ecstatic that they could survive the disaster, and many people cried with joy when they saw the welcoming crowd in Lonely Smoke City, presumably these people were also people who had been struggling for a long time in Thousand Nights City before, and now it was really like a world away to be able to return to Lonely Smoke City.

It's a pity that Xia Fan is still in a coma, he didn't feel the atmosphere of welcoming the hero's triumph, and missed the opportunity to wave to the beauties on both sides of the road as a hero, and the other people in the backlight were not happy at all, and they were all worried about Xia Fan.

As soon as they arrived at the Rising Smoke Pavilion, the backlight crowd was arranged to the most luxurious and comfortable room to enjoy the most thoughtful care.

No one denies the credit of the Backlight Mercenary Regiment, who not only completed the mission, but also saved almost everyone's lives.

Therefore, everyone agrees that the winner of this "Thousand Nights City Mission" is the Backlight Mercenary Group.

As soon as they were placed in the room, several women gathered around Xia Fan's bed and began to be busy, and even the spicy Fei Yi took care of Xia Fan completely and took care of him.

If Xia Fan knew, maybe even if he woke up, he would hold back and pretend to be asleep forever.

While the women circled around the sleeping Xia Fan, several people from the Rising Smoke Pavilion came to the residence of the Backlight Mercenary Group.

Walking in the front was an old man of sixty or seventy years old, with a radiant and extraordinary bearing, and it was obvious that the people around him were headed by him, and the stars held the moon.

"Master!"

As soon as he saw the old man come in, Xiao Xun was pleasantly surprised and threw himself into the old man's arms, and all the bitterness and grievances of the months broke out at once, "The apprentice thought that he would never see you again......!

I saw that the old man secretly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said with a calm face, "Do you think I won't scold you if you come with me? If you don't let you go, you have to go! If I don't pay attention, you will get into that haphazard team! If you must go, just tell me! I will send a reliable person with you! It's a big deal, I'll accompany you personally! If you come like this, if you really don't come back, how can I explain to your father?!"

Speaking of which, the old man couldn't help but choke up his voice.

"Alright, Master, isn't the apprentice coming back? It's okay! It's okay! Okay, don't cry!"

Xiao Xun smiled, patted the old man's back gently, shook the old man's arm coquettishly, and said with a smile, "I knew that the master would not be angry with me, okay, let me introduce you, it was these people who saved the apprentice!"

Xiao Xun pulled the old man to the front of everyone and introduced the old man one by one, "This is Brother Yanchen, this is Blazing Yang, and this is Sister Lingyu......"

When Ling Yu was introduced, the old man hurriedly bowed to Ling Yu, "Fifth Princess!"

"Elder Elder ......" Ling Yu replied respectfully, and said in a cold voice, "...... I'm no longer the Fifth Princess, and now I'm just an ordinary maid. ”

"The fifth princess must not be like this, wouldn't this be tormented by the old age?" The old man hurriedly returned to Lingyu again, "The past has passed, why should the fifth princess always linger in her heart and torture herself in vain?......"

"The elder doesn't need to say more, just don't see Lingyu before. After Lingyu finished speaking, she buried herself in taking care of Xia Fan again.

“......”

The old man was speechless, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly condensed.

"President?"

Fei Yi and Blazing Sun were very surprised, since Ling Yu called this old man "President", then could the old man in front of him be the first person in the mercenary world of the Dongzhou Continent, the helmsman of the Mercenary General Guild of Lonely Smoke City?

You must know that the president of the Mercenary Guild of Lonely Smoke City is a good tribute to even the kings of the major states.

At this time, I saw that the old man was calm, and he Mudi hugged his fists to everyone and smiled, "The old man is the president of the Lonely Smoke City Guild, Shen Jiang, he has been lazy for a long time, I hope you don't be surprised!"

Fei Yi and Blazing Sun hurriedly returned the salute, "Good will always grow!"

Yan Chenyin also silently hugged Shen Jiang and saluted, and Yingluo gave Shen Jiang a blessing salute.

"This time, thanks to all of you in the Backlight Mercenary Group who have solved the crisis in Thousand Nights City and rescued the apprentices from the Demon City, both the Rising Smoke Pavilion and the Immortal Zhu Sect will take your great kindness to heart!" Shen Jiang said to everyone sincerely, "In the future, if you have any needs, I will do my best to Ascending Smoke Pavilion!"

"The president said seriously, we don't need the help of the Rising Smoke Pavilion, everyone now just hopes that Young Master Fan can get better soon. Ling Yu said coldly, in fact, an eviction order had been issued outside the words.

Shen Jiang didn't care, walked to Xia Fan's bedside, and reached out to check Xia Fan's pulse.

After a while, Shen Jiang looked up at the worried Lingyu, and said in a deep voice, "Since there is Xiao Xun, Captain Xia Fan's physical condition must not be worried. Shicai Lao Decay sensed Captain Xia Fan's injury, his vital functions were active, and all parts of his body were intact, but at the moment he was only extremely tired and sad, which made his spirit overdrawn, so he was still asleep, and it was only a matter of time before he recovered and woke up, so he didn't have to worry. It's just ......"

Shen Jiang's face was slightly condensed, and he stopped talking.

"But what?" Ling Yu asked nervously, and Yingluo and Feiyi on the side also looked at Shen Jiang nervously and solemnly.

Shen Jiang's words were regretful, "Challenging the legend, fighting the Thousand Nights Emperor alone caused him to retreat from exhaustion, this battle must be a good story for the ages." Listening to the words of the people present, the strength that Captain Xia Fan showed at that time was probably still above the Xuanwu Realm, and a Xuanwu person of this age was probably only a few when he looked at the entire Dongzhou Continent. However, although the old man could still sense the vitality in the qi veins in his body, he could not sense the slightest bit of danpower from his dantian...... I'm afraid that after this battle, his Yuan Dan has been exhausted, and his martial arts have been scattered......"

Shen Jiang's few words instantly plunged the room into an extremely mournful atmosphere, but only Blazing Yang and Yan Chenyin were completely indifferent.

"Big brother, do you know that Brother Fan didn't have Yuan Dan in the first place?" Blazing Yang secretly said to Yan Chenyin.

"Naturally, I have seen it for a long time. Yan Chenyin said in a faint voice, "He should have focused on the cultivation of the spirit a long time ago." ”

Seeing that the atmosphere was heavy, Blazing Yang hurriedly reassured everyone, "You don't have to be too sad, it's okay if you're fine, he doesn't care about Brother Fan of 'martial cultivation' or something, Brother Fan's cultivation is also very good!"

Blazing Yang's words made the other mercenary guild personnel present couldn't help but be shocked, and Shen Jiang sighed, "In this way, Captain Xia Fan is actually a double cultivation of martial arts? No wonder the old man senses that his body is full of muscles, at least the body of a true level of fighting and refining! Such a young hero, the old man also sighs to himself, and sincerely admires it! Captain Xia Fan Jiren has his own natural appearance, and he will definitely be among the strongest people in the world one day!"

"Strong or not, Ling Yu will never leave Young Master Fan...... "Ling Yu muttered to herself.

“......”

Shen Jiang looked at Ling Yu with a calm gaze, sighed lightly, and said, "Fifth princess, in life, there are some things that cannot be forced......
