The streets were in ruins, and the houses were engulfed in flames. People were screaming and fleeing the burning city. Some people were on fire, like a scene from hell. The sky was dyed red by the flames, and many fire lizards were circling, some of them holding books in their claws.

Yuxi asked in shock: "Qianku City... is completely destroyed?"

Lanling Wang calmly analyzed: "These demons seem to be driven by some kind of order and have started to riot again."

Yuxi was worried: "Is Jialuo still in the main city?"

Lanling Wang urged, "Hurry up, this place is full of fire. Let's leave here first."

Yuxi decided: "You go first! I'll go inside and take a look."

Lanling Wang warned: "You want to save the people again? If you think your life is too long, why don't you eat arsenic? Can't you just find a place to wait for death quietly? Why do you have to make yourself into a delicious barbecue?"

Yuxi responded helplessly: "Fuck...it's a pity that you don't go to perform crosstalk! When I come back, I will definitely buy you a few pounds of candy. You have a very poisonous tongue!"

Yuxi resolutely turned around and rushed into the sea of ​​fire, heading for the bulletin board in the main city. When he arrived, Jialuo was shooting the fire lizards with a bow, and the bow was as fast as a meteor, killing them with one shot. However, there were so many fire lizards that Jialuo retreated while attacking, not noticing the burning house behind her. The wooden structure of the house was so fragile that it was about to fall on her.

Yuxi shouted in a hurry: "Watch out behind you!" and rushed over to block behind Jialuo. He silently said in his heart: "If I get burned, the crazy healing should be able to hold on. Since I got the healing spell, my life-saving limit is really getting lower and lower. I hope it doesn't knock me out..."

However, the expected pain did not come. He looked up and found that he was surrounded by a gray-purple circular shield.

Yuxi was surprised and asked, "What a weird thing?"

Yingyingguai nodded in response, and Yuxi exclaimed: "You are so strong! I love you so much~"

However, Yuxi noticed that Yingying Monster's lizard face turned strangely red and shrank into its sleeves, which gave him goose bumps.

Yuxi thought to herself, "How strange... How strange."

"Thank you for saving me." Jialuo said gratefully looking at Yuxi.

Yuxi smiled slightly and replied modestly: "Ah, you're welcome."

"Let's leave here quickly," Yuxi suggested.

However, Jia Luo shook his head firmly: "I can't just give up those books that belong to Qianku City!"

Yuxi took a deep breath and said in a serious tone: "I know you want to get those books back. But the situation is very dangerous now. The whole Qianku City is engulfed by fire. Some survivors in the city have already escaped, and Qianku City is about to collapse under the fire. Do you want to die here?"

Jialuo stared at the raging fire silently, tears silently sliding down her cheeks.

"The Thousand Caves City... Father... I can't protect it. Those books... can't be protected either." Jialuo's voice was filled with sadness and helplessness.

Yuxi patted Jialuo's shoulder gently, trying to comfort her: "Don't be sad. As long as you are alive, the books can always be found again. Let's escape first."

In the sea of ​​fire, Yuxi felt extremely hot and couldn't help worrying about being roasted.

Suddenly, a voice sounded in the firelight: "If crying can solve the problem, then I don't know how many wishes have been fulfilled~" Lanling Wang's voice was so calm and sarcastic.

Yuxi reminded Lanling Wang worriedly: "Lanling Wang, could you please be more careful with your words?"

Lanling Wang responded nonchalantly: "If you want to sacrifice your life for the city, then act quickly. I still have to watch the next drama. I don't have time to wait for you to dawdle."

Yuxi couldn't help but complain: "How much poison did you eat to train your tongue?"

Jia Luo said calmly, "Let's go. Thank you."

After saying that, she rushed out of the sea of ​​fire first, and the two followed closely behind her, hurriedly fleeing out of the city.

Standing on the sand dunes of the outer city, Jialuo looked back at Qianku City, his heart filled with regret and determination.

"Father, I will make up for your regrets! I will bring back all the lost books and find out the origins of these demon species!"

Lanling Wang silently watched Qianku City turn into ruins and sighed, "Another city has fallen."

Yuxi interrupted, "Maybe there's more than one, but the entire Cloud Desert."

Lanling Wang asked in confusion: "How do you know?"

Yuxi explained: "My elder brother and I walked here from Haidu. There were ogres all along the way, with varying strengths."

Lanling Wang said sarcastically: "Walking? You guys are really free."

Yuxi retorted: "Walking is not slower than riding a horse!"

Jia Luo suggested, "I'm going to go to the Protectorate to confirm whether what you said is true."

Yuxi also said: "I want to go too!"

Lanling Wang asked in confusion: "What are you going to do?"

Yuxi said solemnly: "I have to find my elder brother and return the sword to him."

Lanling Wang, however, looked unimpressed: "It's just a sword, how much is it worth? And you still want to return it?"

Yuxi suggested: "If you want to go with me, let's go together."

Lanling Wang replied coldly: "Go away! I don't have as much free time as you."

Yuxi hummed helplessly.

However, Lanling Wang suddenly changed his mind: "But it is indeed time for me to take back what belongs to me."

"what is this?"

"Do you live by the sea? Why do you mind your own business?"

Yuxi said disapprovingly: "I live in the desert, okay?"

At this time, Jia Luo interrupted and said, "Stop arguing."

Yuxi looked at Jialuo and found that her face was full of tears, but she didn't cry at all.

Yuxi quickly apologized: "I'm sorry."

Lanling Wang interrupted and said, "Why are you apologizing to her? You didn't start the fire."

Yuxi waved her hand to stop Lanling Wang and said, "Shut up and be quiet." She thought to herself: This Lanling Wang is so fucking scary.
