His clothes were soaked with sweat, but his face remained calm.

When Xia Qixiu saw Xiao Huai, she asked with a hint of surprise, "Why are you..."

Xiao Huai didn't wait for Xia Qixiu to finish his question and immediately spoke out his speculation.

As Xiao Huai continued his narration, Xia Qixiu's expression gradually changed from surprise to solemnity.

His expression gradually hardened, and his eyes changed from initial doubt to contemplation. Finally, a hint of urgency and silent determination appeared in his eyes.

His jawline was tense, his brows slightly furrowed, and with each word he quickly constructed a new situation in his mind, followed by a reassessment of the current situation.

Just as the atmosphere fell into a brief silence, a cold blue light suddenly streaked across the sky.

The ice bridge extends from the sky, like a road built in the air. The cold air condenses into crystal ice flowers in the air and spreads out.

Pei Yu walked slowly across the ice bridge, his posture as straight as a pine tree. Blue ice crystals shattered under his feet. With every step he took, the ice bridge turned into flying snow, like his footprints.

Zhu Feng followed breathlessly. Although his steps were a little heavy, his eyes still flashed with an unignorable youthful wildness.

Sweat dripped from his forehead and slid down his slightly curly reddish-brown hair. Fatigue did not conceal his vigorous vitality and fighting instinct.

"I finally found you!" Zhu Feng shouted loudly while panting and making a trumpet shape with his hands.

His voice was as light-hearted and teasing as ever, but when he approached and saw their serious expressions, he couldn't help but frown. "What's going on? Why do you all look so grumpy?"

Xia Qixiu came back to his senses and then cast his gaze towards the distant sky.

The exit of the crack was actually in the sky, so far away and out of reach.

It was easy for them to come, but it would be difficult for them to leave now.

The only passage to the outside world is so far away, how can they get there?

"We are in trouble." Xia Qixiu's voice was low, revealing unquestionable determination.

Someone must stay here to prevent the monsters in the crack from escaping, otherwise the outside world will fall into a greater disaster.

But at the same time, someone needs to step out of the crack.

Pei Yu stood aside, staring into the distance with cold eyes. Even he could not solve all the problems alone at this critical moment.

"I have a plan," Xia Qixiu finally made up his mind. "But if I were to implement it, it would be incredibly difficult. Do you understand what I mean?"

Xia Qixiu's gaze suddenly fell on Xiao Huai, with a hint of confusion in his eyes, but soon, he saw the golden light flashing in Xiao Huai's eyes.

At that moment, the air around Xiao Huai seemed to change drastically.

Immediately afterwards, You Lin gently turned his head and appeared beside Xiao Huai. There was a gentle light in his eyes, and there was an unspoken tacit understanding flowing in them.

The black wings slowly spread out like the night sky, and the wings trembled slightly, carrying a leisurely and powerful power.

"I'm late." You Lin said softly.

Xiao Huai shook his head lightly, and gently stroked his wings with his fingertips. "Next, I'll leave it to you."

At this moment, You Lin's appearance shocked everyone, and surprise was written all over everyone's face.

The sentries were stunned, as if they couldn't believe the scene before them.

Xiao Huai jumped lightly, his movements smooth and graceful, and landed steadily on You Lin's back.

"It's okay for me to go alone." Xiao Huai answered calmly and casually, "I hope you can destroy this place before I do."

His words were calm, without any fluctuation in tone, but they easily broke their astonishment and shock.

Xia Qixiu's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile.

"Boy, I really underestimated you." Xia Qixiu chuckled, then said seriously, "Don't worry, we are not vegetarians. We just hope everything goes well for you."

Xiao Huai nodded without saying anything more. As You Lin flapped his wings, his figure quickly rose into the air and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Zhu Feng and Pei Yu followed Xia Qixiu and stood in the open space, their eyes following Xiao Huai's receding figure.

Zhu Feng squinted his eyes, shielding his eyes from the sunlight with his hands like a curious monkey, staring at the backlit shadow that gradually disappeared into the horizon.

He lowered his voice, as if afraid of disturbing something, and asked, "Captain, are you really so confident in leaving this to him? I don't know what you were talking about just now, but is he really reliable? Is he a good person?"

Xia Qixiu's expression became complicated, and a hint of hesitation and deep thought appeared in his originally serious look.

He was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "You may not know what kind of existence the S-level rift boss is... nor do you know the true strength of the doctor."

Xia Qixiu's tone gradually deepened. "As long as the doctor is still at headquarters, nothing will happen to the headquarters. On the contrary, the ones in danger may be those of us."

Zhu Feng was completely confused. He asked with curiosity and suspicion, "Doctor? Isn't he just a guide? Is he really as powerful as you say? It's our job as sentinels to deal with the boss. What can a guide like him do?"

Xia Qixiu didn't answer. Instead, he sneered and flicked Zhu Feng's forehead with his hand: "I told you to study hard, but you just wouldn't. Now you can't remember anything!"

Zhu Feng covered his forehead and looked at Xia Qixiu with a little grievance.

Xia Qixiu exchanged a glance with Pei Yu, who nodded slightly and added calmly, "The Doctor is no ordinary guide. He is the only guide in the world who also possesses the ability of a Sentinel."

Pei Yu's voice was calm, but every word was like an icy blade, piercing reality. "Although he was identified as a guide, he also possesses the abilities of a sentinel. His power is beyond human imagination."

Zhu Feng's eyes widened slightly, obviously shocked by the news, but Pei Yu's expression did not change at all.

He paused for a moment, as if considering his next words, then slowly spoke, "If one day, the Doctor loses control of his role as a Sentinel, that would be the true end of the world. Therefore, under normal circumstances, he would never use his abilities as a Sentinel."

The air was suddenly filled with invisible pressure, and Zhu Feng was no longer joking in a relaxed manner, but seemed a little nervous.

Headquarters' attitude towards the Doctor is complicated.

On the one hand, they hope that the doctor can survive. After all, his research and guidance abilities are of great help to the whole world. But on the other hand...

Many of them also wanted Lu Yuanshi to die, and some even wanted to do it themselves.

An imperceptible emotion flashed in Pei Yu's eyes.

"The existence of the Doctor is like a nuclear weapon that could explode at any time. If it gets out of control, it might really destroy the entire world."
