"If his child is still around, he should be about the same age as you."

The woman said softly, her tone revealing sadness that was difficult to hide.

Li Xia didn't respond, just stood in place in a daze, with mixed feelings in his heart.

Perhaps at this time, silence is the best consolation.

"Let's go." The woman slowly lowered her hand and said.

Li Xia was stunned and asked, "Are you willing to let me out?" ”

The woman snorted softly and said, "If I don't let you go, you're going to make me restless, right?" ”

Li Xia smiled.

"Rather than let you mess with me, I'd better let you out."

"Anyway, I can't keep you."

With that, the woman slowly turned around and continued to sit by the window, playing a one-man game.

"Do you like to play chess?" Li Xia suddenly spoke.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Li Xia chuckled and said, "I also like to play chess, if I have the opportunity in the future, I will accompany you to play a few games." ”

As he spoke, Li Xia resolutely turned around and walked out of the door.

The figure behind the gauze curtain paused slightly, and then fell calmly.

Before the black market exit.

The black robe waved its sleeves, and the closed door opened.

"Brother Hei, thank you." Li Xia smiled at the black robe.

The black robe didn't pay attention, turned around, and left indifferently.

"You said he was holding it like this all day long, wasn't he tired?" Li Xia looked at the back of the black robe in the distance and wondered.

"Maybe." Qin Churan said lightly, "But I'm curious, how did you convince that young lady?" ”

Li Xia hissed and said, "She said, I am like an old man she knows." ”

"That's it?"

"That's it."

Qin Churan sneered lightly and said, "This old man, I'm afraid it's the one who haunts her soul, right?" ”

With that, he turned around and walked towards the exit.

Li Xia frowned slightly, and muttered, "Haunted by dreams? ”

"Is this word appropriate for a life-saver?"

With that, he also walked out.

……

"Gone?" In the curtain room, the woman stood by the window and asked with some disappointment.

"Gone." The black robe nodded.

The woman sighed lightly and said, "Black robe, will it be too unprincipled for me to do this?" ”

The black robe paused and said, "In the black market, Miss is the principle. ”

When the woman heard this, she laughed loudly and said, "You, you, your mouth is like smeared with honey." ”

After the laughter, the woman suddenly fell into deep thought, "Black robe, can I trouble you with something?" ”

"Despite Miss's orders, the black robe will never give up."

The woman was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "You go and help me check this Li Qiu." ”

"Yes."

The woman nodded slightly, leaned against the window, and muttered, "Like, too similar..."

……

Linghai City.

West City Gate.

Twilight.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the towering city gates, dragging a dark shadow on the ground.

The figures of the people waiting on the city wall look particularly majestic against the backdrop of the setting sun.

Suddenly, there was a hurried sound in everyone's headsets.

"Attention the Demon Slayer Master of the West City Gate!"

"High-frequency energy fluctuations detected!"

"The number is between fifty and seventy!"

"The average level of the demon beast is the peak of the Xuan level, the highest heavenly level!"

Qiu Yue frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Received." ”

With that, he immediately turned around and began to make an emergency deployment.

"A squad, ready to activate the trap!"

"Second squad, long-range ammunition dropping!"

"Three squads, rescue preparation!"

"Medical Team ......"

After the deployment, Qiu Yue took a deep breath and glanced at the people beside him.

"Experimental team, remember, everything will be under my command later!"

"No one is allowed to act rashly without my orders!"

Jiang Xiyan and the others stood up straight and shouted: "Yes!" ”

Qiu Yue nodded, turned around and continued to look at the west, his face solemn.

"Are you nervous?" Wang Sicong spoke weakly.

"It's okay." Xu Changyuan said indifferently: "But this battle is indeed a bit big. ”

"Hmm." Jiang Xiyan took over, "Almost all of the Demon Slaying Towers have been dispatched. ”

"Kakashi is not here at all?!" At this moment, Wang Sicong suddenly mentioned Li Xia.

In a tone full of complaints, there is also a little expectation.

Jiang Xiyan glanced at the time and said in frustration: "There is no news yet, I guess I won't come." ”

When the words fell, everyone's faces showed some loss emotions to a greater or lesser extent.

I don't know when Li Xia became an indispensable member of this team.

Obviously, he only existed as Jiang Xiyan's assistant, but unknowingly, he became the backbone of this team.

Even Wang Sicong, who couldn't get used to him, still had his name in his mouth at a critical moment.

It seems that as long as he is there, there is a sense of security.

"It's coming!"

Suddenly, Lan Ke spoke solemnly.

Follow her gaze.

On the city walls, some fine grains of sand began to shake.

Over time, the vibration frequency is getting faster and the amplitude is getting higher.

Immediately, there were several dull noises in the distance.

Looking up, dozens of strange-shaped monster beasts slowly emerged and marched in unison!

"Boom, boom......"

Footsteps are getting closer.

Along with the sound of footsteps, there was a cloud of dust and smoke.

"Launch!"

When he was shocked, he only heard Qiu Yue's calm command in his ears.

Almost at the same time, twenty cannonballs in front of the city gate were fired instantly.

The cannonball was like an arrow off the string, falling steadily where the demon beasts gathered.

"Boom—"

Another loud bang.

The battlefield was instantly ablaze with smoke billowing out.

"Hit!" Wang Sicong said excitedly.

However, Qiu Yue remained sad.

Because she knew that this level of offense could only get rid of some shrimp soldiers and crab generals.

Demon beasts above the ground level, spiritual weapons below the first level no longer pose a threat to them.

"Roar—"

Sure enough, with a monstrous roar, the demon beasts rushed out of the smoke one after another.

In the direction of the city gate, rush to come!

"Trap! Activation! ”

Qiu Yue shouted in a deep voice.

Suddenly, a thin net suddenly appeared on the ground in front of me.

The net was as thin as a cicada's wings, but it was lit with a little cold light.

The demon beast that rushed in front couldn't dodge, and was instantly cut into minced meat by that net!

The picture is extremely bloody.

After being baptized by cobwebs, the number of demon beasts plummeted by half in an instant.

And the remaining half is only a hundred meters away from the city gate!

"It's coming!"

Xu Changyuan said excitedly.

The words fell, and everyone immediately entered the battle state.

"Wait!" At this moment, Lan Ke suddenly spoke, "Why did they stop?" ”

When everyone heard the sound, they saw that the demon beast stopped a hundred meters away from the city gate as if it had received an order.

"What's that?!"

Lan Ke keenly noticed that behind the demon beast, there seemed to be something, which was shining with white light.

"People?!"

As the white light got closer and closer, a figure appeared in front of everyone!

"That's not right!" Jiang Xiyan said solemnly.

Her expression was solemn, and her eyes were full of disbelief.

Because of this thing, she seems to be familiar with it.

"That's it, humanoid monster ......"
