After a while, Hei Yu hurried back to report: "I just took people out of the city to search, and the city lord came back!"

When E Ling heard this, she quickly sat up from the bed.

Xing came back. He had just landed and hadn't even taken a breath or drank a sip of water when Helma first scolded him for his poor efficiency. Then he was dragged to Xuanming's room and asked to report the situation to E Ling in person. What should he do?

Following Xing in was Helmer.

His eyes involuntarily fell on E Ling who had already awakened, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Before Xing could speak, E Ling asked anxiously: "Xing, what's the situation? Where's Changze? Where's my little Tuanzi? Did you bring them back?"

"Don't worry, beautiful female. We have rescued the man, but considering the injury of the deer beast, we have placed him in the Northern Beast City. The status of deer beasts in the Northern Beast City is very high, and someone will be responsible for rescuing him."

"W-why...why didn't you bring it back?"

E Ling looked at Chang Ze in some surprise. She was still thinking about meeting him. After all, they had been separated for so long. It would be a lie to say that she was not worried about or missed Chang Ze.

"Well..."

He glanced at Xuan Ming with a guilty conscience, and then glanced at Helmer.

Why bring her back? Bring her back to give Xuanming a love rival, and then he will have to endure the king's weird temper again?

He is not so ignorant.

However, he certainly couldn't tell E Ling the truth, so he made up an excuse:

"That's of course because we consider the long distance and high mountains. Although we can take him with us, the Deer Beast is too injured to be tossed around... Beautiful female, you don't want us to bring back a dead person for you, do you?"

Xing touched his nose and observed E Ling's expression. She seemed to believe it.

After all, what Xi said made sense. E Ling had no reason to continue asking, so she asked, "Then, where is my contracted beast? Little Tuanzi, you must have brought it back, right? Xiaoguai, where are you...?"

E Ling poked her head out and looked behind her, trying hard to find the figure of the little dumpling.

But the little figure never came and called her "Mommy" in a cute voice.

"Um, beautiful female, I'm sorry..."

Seeing E Ling's gradually disappointed look, Xing suddenly felt like a thorn in his back, and said somewhat embarrassedly: "When we were rescuing people, your contracted beast took advantage of the chaos and escaped from the City of Heaven. As for where it went... we tried to find it, but we couldn't find it."

"Xiaoguai, something must have happened to it..." E Ling murmured, lifted the animal skin covering her body, and said, "I'm going to go find it..."

Did Xiaoguai run away? Where did he go? Why didn't he come to find her? Was he captured by someone with bad intentions again?

Is it suffering? What is its condition? Is it...really fine as 019 said? What if, what if 019's guess is wrong...?

Moreover, why was it becoming increasingly difficult for her to sense Xiaoguai's location? It seemed as if Xiaoguai was very far away from her. Would she lose Xiaoguai and never find him again...?

E Ling's mind went blank, and when she tried to get up, her body was held down by Xuan Ming.

"Ling, calm down first."

"Ming, are you trying to stop me?"

E Ling looked at Xuan Ming with red eyes, as if tears would burst out at the next moment.

"Ling, it's too reckless for you to go look for her alone. Calm down first." Xuan Ming tried to comfort her.

"How can I stay calm? After all, it's my contracted beast. It's the cub I've raised for so long. How can you ask me to stay calm?!"

When she thought that Xiaoguai might be facing unknown danger, she felt extremely upset.

Although she could not accept Xiaoguai's unusual feelings for her, she had always treated Xiaoguai as her own child, and she and Xiaoguai were bound by a contract, so how could she abandon Xiaoguai?

"The rainy season is coming soon, E'ling. It is almost impossible to find someone during the rainy season, not to mention the bad weather. It can rain heavily for more than a month. It is too dangerous." Mo Lin stuck out his snake tongue and advised.

Snakes have always been sensitive to the weather, so Mo Lin's statement must be a safe guess.

"Yes, Ling, and you are too weak now for a long journey. Your body won't be able to bear it."

"But I can't just ignore it. I want to think of a way to get back before the rainy season..."

E Ling muttered quietly, thinking of something, and asked in her mind: "019, didn't you say there was a 'teleport' function before? Can my current points unlock this function?"

She has completed so many tasks and has accumulated more than a thousand points. This should be enough, right?

"If you want to use the teleportation function, please upgrade the system to level 4 first."

"Friendly reminder, the current system level is 2."

"You need another 1500 points to upgrade to the next level, and your current balance is 1140 points."

019As soon as she finished speaking, E Ling could no longer hold back her tears, which fell on the back of her hand with a plop.

Is there really no other way...?

"Ling, don't cry, let's think of a solution together." Seeing her sad and distressed, Xuan Ming's heart was broken. He gently wiped away the tears from the corners of E Ling's eyes and coaxed her.

"Okay, why are you crying? You have no spine. It's just a little fur ball. I'll help you find it."

A clean animal skin handkerchief was handed to him by Helmer. Helmer snorted and spoke.

Xuan Ming took the animal skin handkerchief and gave Helmer a grateful look.

"You don't know where it is, how can you find it?" E Ling looked at Helmer with some displeasure. She was obviously still angry about Helmer's previous suspicion and humiliation of her.

"I have so many people under my command, not all of them are used to eat dry food. At worst, I will search the entire beast world to help you find the person."

Hermi's fingers gently wiped away the tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, and said, "Don't cry, it's ugly."

The moment he saw her crying, Helmer was upset.

Such a beautiful face should not be used for crying.

Even though she cried, it was still very beautiful.

Xuan Ming looked at Helmai with a complicated look. Helmai's attitude towards E Ling always made Xuan Ming feel that something was unusual.

As if noticing Xuanming's scrutiny, Helmer withdrew his hand somewhat guiltily and said to the side: "After you have rested, go find someone. Even if you have to dig deep into the ground, you must bring back her contracted beast."

Xing pointed at himself.

"?? Me again?"

"What? Are you unhappy?" Helmer glared at him.

With a fake smile, he said: "How could that be? It is my honor to serve beautiful females."

Looking at Qiang who was busying around like a cow in a production team, E Ling felt a little embarrassed, but Xuan Ming and Mo Lin didn't want her to go out to find someone, not to mention Helmai, who had arranged everything for her without any explanation, and would definitely not let her go. She had no choice but to pin her hopes on Qiang.

"Xiaoguai, please, Xiaoguai is very important to me, you must do your best to help me find it, okay?"

She tugged at Xi's sleeve, tears still lingering in the corners of her eyes, and she looked pitiful.
