Chapter 33: The Way Home

Under the setting sun, Gu Yichen, Lu Ling'er, and Dabai and Dahui, who were waiting at the exit, set out on their journey home. The jade pendant flickered faintly in Lu Ling'er's hand, seemingly guiding their direction. The surrounding scenery gradually transformed in the twilight, bringing a sense of tranquility and warmth.

"Yichen, what do you think the 'Land of Apocalypse' will be like?" Lu Linger asked curiously, her eyes filled with anticipation for the future. She gazed into the distance, her heart filled with longing for the unknown.

Gu Yichen smiled and replied, "According to legend, the 'Land of Apocalypse' should be an ancient and mysterious place, where powerful powers and secrets are hidden. Perhaps it is not only a geographical location, but also a symbol of some kind." His tone was filled with awe of the unknown and confidence in the future.

Lu Linger nodded, a glint of determination flashing in her eyes. "No matter what, we must be fully prepared. This place is obviously extremely important. Mastering its secrets will have a profound impact on our future journey."

As night fell, moonlight streamed through the forest, illuminating their path. Gu Yichen and Lu Ling'er camped by a stream. The glow of the campfire was warm and comforting. They gathered around the fire and continued to study the contents of the scroll, hoping to find more clues about the "Land of Apocalypse."

"The runes on this scroll are complex. With our current understanding, we still can't fully decipher them," Lu Linger said, her fingers gently sliding across the scroll. Her brow furrowed slightly, revealing her concentration and anxiety at solving the puzzle.

Gu Yichen stared at the scroll, his eyes flashing with thought: "Perhaps we can combine the previous clues and gradually unravel the meaning of these runes. Every detail may be the key to solving the mystery." His words revealed his confidence and persistence in solving the mystery.

Just as they were concentrating on their research, Gu Yichen suddenly felt his fatigue worsen, and the wound on his arm ached slightly. Lu Linger noticed Gu Yichen's condition and asked worriedly, "Yichen, are you okay?"

Gu Yichen forced a smile: "I'm just a little tired, and the injuries on my body haven't healed completely yet."

Lu Linger took a deep breath and decided, "In that case, let's go home first. Your injuries and poison haven't fully healed yet, and continuing on might worsen your condition. We need to go back and recuperate first, and make sure you're fully recovered before setting off for the 'Land of Apocalypse'."

Gu Yichen nodded and looked at Lu Ling'er gratefully. "Thank you for your consideration. We do need to be fully prepared, not only for our exploration of the 'Land of Apocalypse', but also to ensure that we can complete this journey safely."

The two men and the two wolves packed up their belongings and returned to Taohua Village along the same route. Although they felt a little regretful that they could not immediately begin their exploration of the "Land of Apocalypse," they knew that this was to ensure their safety and success.

When they returned to the Lu family, Lu Linger immediately went to the kitchen to prepare hot water for them to take a bath and prepare dinner. After a simple meal, they took a bath and went to bed early. They were all exhausted from going out for the past few days.

The next day, Lu Ling'er woke up late and didn't go to the martial arts training ground for morning exercises. Gu Yichen knew Lu Ling'er was tired, so he didn't bother her. When he finished his morning exercises and realized Lu Ling'er hadn't woken up yet, he couldn't help but feel worried. He knocked on Lu Ling'er's door, but only heard her faint voice coming from inside.

Gu Yichen pushed the door open in a panic. Seeing that the window was open, he turned over and entered the room. He ran to the bed and saw the pale-faced Lu Linger. He was frightened.

Seeing Gu Yichen's anxious expression, Lu Linger realized that her situation might be frightening. She shyly explained, "Actually, I'm having my period, and it's my first time, so the pain is quite severe and my face is pale."

Gu Yichen was confused and distressed after hearing this, not knowing how to react. Seeing Lu Linger's condition, he could only silently stay by her side, trying his best to comfort her, while at the same time, his care and consideration for her deepened.
