Bai Ye's first contact with the Lan Yan Sect was arranged in a remote post teahouse, and in order to successfully reach this place, the two of them could be said to have put a lot of effort into it.

This remote inn belongs to an equally remote and desolate town, Lomaha.

This town is located in an arid region, where wind and sand are the main theme all year round, and in order to avoid the cultivators squatting nearby, the two of them also had to choose to buy two camels, dry food and water.

The town was desolate, but it was located right between two major trading capitals, so there were not many travelers and merchants coming and going, otherwise there would never be a single caravan here.

The last month has been a short period of wind and sand, and it is a rare good day for the people of Lomaha, and the number of caravans has increased, making it a rare place to live.

In order to prevent sunburn and sand, most people will wear veils and headscarves, revealing only a pair of eyes, and when the wind and sand are strong, even the eyelashes can be stained with dust, which is really 'gray'.

But these are not the most terrifying things here, there are even more deadly and invisible threats lurking here...

On the undulating sand dunes, two camels walked one after the other, their heads held high, looking energetic, and even the grass roots left over from the feeding in their mouths, but the travelers on the camels looked sluggish.

The camel that walked behind was a man half-crouched on its back, the whole of which was covered by a long gauze scarf, and if it had not moved and made a sound, it might have been mistaken for a mass of luggage.

"Bai Ye, Bai Ye..."

The amplitude of the 'luggage' movement became a little larger, and a white hand suddenly reached out from the inside, lifting the outer layer of the scarf away, so that his voice could be heard more clearly.

“... Bai Ye: I feel like I'm going to be roasted dry, we, how long will we have to walk to get there?"

The one who spoke was Liu Qingmian, who had been out with Bai Ye for a month, and her face was yellow at this time, and her lips were chapped in a few places, which was completely similar to her before.

This damn weather! This damn dodge searchers!

"It's coming, it's supposed to be coming. The other replied, sitting up and looking ahead, "Look, there's someone over there, it's in the direction of Deco, and it should be there soon." ”

The man who spoke was Bai Ye, he walked in front first, looking like he was not afraid of tanning, but he was wearing local clothes to protect against wind and sand, and the aura on his body was all restrained.

After Bai Ye finished speaking, seeing that Liu Qingmian fell back again, he simply slowed down and stood side by side with her.

"Are you okay. Bai Ye thought about it and held back a sentence.

“... What do you say? Alas. ”

The Imperial Weapon is undoubtedly the fastest and most stable way to travel, but it is the most unusable spell for the two of them on this trip.

Traveling with a weapon will tell people as quickly as possible, 'We're here!', so pretending to act like the other travelers in the area is the best way to hide your eyes.

But that's not all.

In addition to not being able to fly, the True Breath of the Protector is also greatly restricted here.

This desolate land is so desertified that it can only be stepped on when you get close to the two capitals.

The scorching sun slammed at everyone here without any shelter because there was no vegetation on the ground. What's even more surprising is that the weather here is weird.

For the most part, it's exposed to scorching sunshine, but occasionally a sudden rainstorm can quickly seep into the sand or be dried by the resurgence of the sun.

Originally, the two of them could rely on the True Breath of the Body Protector to isolate these hot gases, but obviously, this path no longer worked.

All in all, all actions that require the use of True Breath must be extremely careful here, otherwise there is a high chance that the decent disciples who are squatting in the two nearby capitals will find them.

Bai Ye did not have a direct way to contact the Lan Yan Sect at the moment, so this first contact was extremely important.

Liu Qingmian said: "I didn't expect you to have such a contract spirit. ”

Bai Ye glanced at her and said puzzledly: "When did I not have it?" And the three ghost seniors are extraordinary, I really respect him. ”

The huge body of the three ghosts after the mutation that day instantly appeared in Liu Qingmian's mind again, the blood-red eyes, and the pair of hideous horns belonging to the spirit beast, made her shudder.

Before the start of this trip, Liu Qingmian was actually quite excited.

Because of camel riding, Liu Qingmian has never had a chance to experience it in his previous life, let alone come to such a desert area.

However, her happiness lasted only ten minutes, because it was so hot!

"I can't help it... I want to open the True Breath Barrier!" Liu Qingmian said, she looked very bad now.

Her body has been fed by the Blood Demon day and night, and it is supposed that she will not feel pain from the long ride, but don't forget that the Blood Demon is not a philanthropist, and it will bring fatal disadvantages as well as benefits.

The fear of fire and heat can be said to be the deepest fear of the Blood Demon, so this body that has been transformed by the Blood Demon is no exception.

The continuous exposure to the sun made the two people who could not use their true breath to protect themselves directly bear the most direct damage, and the blood demon in his body obediently returned to the place where it first woke up because of this overwhelming temperature, huddled tightly into a ball, and isolated himself from the outside world as much as possible.

And the Blood Demon's 'rest' also made her body no longer in the good state it was in when it was parasitized by the Blood Demon, but became dry and more fragile, so that she actually felt pain from riding.

"No, sleep, bear with me a little longer. Bai Ye naturally understood the truth, but he obviously couldn't understand the feelings of a cultivator at this level of Liu Qingmian.

Bai Ye looked at her, his expression suddenly became serious, "The two cultivators stationed around here are both above the Golden Pill, I can't guarantee that they will be killed quickly, if that's the case, the news that we are here will be spread quickly." ”

"Kill?" Liu Qingmian's voice paused, and then suddenly lifted the scarf on his head, and his voice was raised, "Why do you have to kill them?

"What, you're distressed? Do you know how many Demon Sect disciples these decent disciples who want to arrest me have 'easily' gotten rid of?

Bai Ye's voice became colder and colder the more he spoke, making people feel that he was not joking at this time.

Liu Qingmian suddenly felt guilty, but because she had more contact with decent disciples, she subconsciously stood on that side.

What's more, some of the Demon Sect's acting concepts were indeed difficult to match with her thoughts, and she suddenly had a feeling that she wouldn't stay here for long.

"I'm sorry, but I didn't mean that, I know that everyone is a living person, no one is innocent, and I shouldn't be biased towards decency. ”

"No, you're not wrong. Bai Ye interrupted her, and he sighed softly, "When this matter is over, I will help you find a way to change back to the way you were before, and then send you back." ”

The two fell silent, and the sky seemed to be tired from the sun, and suddenly darkened.

Bai Ye looked up at the sky twice and said, "The rainstorm is coming, we have to speed up." ”

Liu Qingmian looked forward, only to see that in addition to the desert or the desert in front of her, everything looked illusory and unreal, and the only thing that made her feel real was the soreness on her body caused by the long time riding.

Liu Qingmian said with a hint of luck: "We don't have time to get to Deco, right? This is a desert, so it's okay to get a little rain, right?"

"If you don't have time, you have to pass as soon as possible, and no one knows how long this rain will be. ”

The dark clouds above quickly spread with the wind, and it was not long before they covered the heads of the two of them.

"Okay..."Liu Qingmian said, while clamping the camel with his feet, urging it to go faster, the camel's fat paws raised a piece of yellow sand, and this aggravated bump also successfully made Liu Qingmian scream in pain.

"Are you okay!" Bai Ye ran in front, and turned around and shouted to her after hearing Liu Qingmian's voice, but at this moment, the dark cloud overhead just arrived, and raindrops poured down like falling rocks, and the dull sound of rain overshadowed Bai Ye's voice.

Her body was quickly wet by the rain and blown by the wind, Liu Qingmian felt that her body temperature was rapidly decreasing, but this did not alleviate the damage caused by the high temperature, it was just that the cold numbed her senses.

However, she was quite glad that at least the anesthetic effect made her body less painful, and the blood demon in her chest seemed to move suddenly, as if expressing her satisfaction with the current situation.

Her consciousness was a little trance, the tip of her nose seemed to smell a light and good smell, and it was even very familiar, but the originally cold body was wrapped in a warm embrace at this time, she subconsciously approached the source of warmth, and the other party didn't seem to dodge or dodge, and even catered to her, letting her move in her arms, making the already wet clothes of the two even more messy.

"Hey... What a useless cheap apprentice... The moment of truth... Excuse me for the trouble. Bai Ye's voice became intermittent in the rain, and although Liu Qingmian was a little groggy at this time, he subconsciously recognized the identity of this person, not only did not dodge, but even rubbed in the other party's arms, reaching out and hugging one of his arms.

The sky gradually darkened, and the rain didn't know when it would stop, Liu Qingmian leaned on Bai Ye's arms and snored peacefully, while Bai Ye looked ahead with an uncertain expression.

Not far ahead, there were thousands of lights in the city, so much so that from him he could see a mysterious barrier that surrounded the city in the middle.

The capital city in front of it is called Deco.
