Seven Gods Guardian: Gun King Mission

Qingluo was so excited that she quickly grabbed Wang Zhan's arm and shouted excitedly, "Oh! Look, it's a shooting star! Sir, let's make a wish quickly!"

Wang Zhan obediently closed his eyes and silently made a wish in his heart - he sincerely hoped to return to his hometown as soon as possible and feel the strong family love and friendship again; at the same time, he also sincerely prayed that this peaceful and tranquil Qingfeng Valley could always remain peaceful and not be disturbed by any war.

When they opened their eyes after making their wishes, they saw Qingluo smiling as charmingly as peach blossoms in bloom in spring. She said to Wang Zhan with confidence, "Don't worry, my lord. Your wish will definitely come true!"

Wang Zhan stood quietly, gazing up at the vast starry sky. The deep and mysterious sky seemed to have an invisible attraction that made him involuntarily immersed in it.

For some reason, at this moment, a strange feeling surged into my heart like a tide.

He looked closely and saw that the twinkling stars in the sky did not seem to be distributed randomly, but were arranged in a formation according to some special rules, like an ancient and mysterious formation.

Qingluo, who was standing aside, also looked up at the sky. Her beautiful face looked particularly peaceful and calm under the starlight.

She slowly began, "Legend has it that the power of the stars within this boundless sky has always protected our elves. It's because of this that we've been able to survive through the ages and continue to this day. However, war is now raging between the humans and demons, and a major war is imminent. This undoubtedly worries every member of our tribe."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhan quickly comforted him, "Don't worry, the smoke of the war between humans and demons won't spread here for the time being. A large human army is waiting in formation ahead. They will surely build an impenetrable line of defense to keep the flames of war out. Therefore, your peaceful and tranquil land will surely be safe."

When saying this, Wang Zhan's tone was so firm that it made people feel trust.

Qing Luo nodded slightly, agreeing with Wang Zhan's words, but she then added calmly, "Once upon a time, we elves, with the magical powers bestowed by the power of the stars, could predict what would happen in the future. We could then make foolproof plans in advance, thus successfully avoiding the chaos of many wars."

Hearing this, an idea suddenly flashed through Wang Zhan's mind, and he asked anxiously, "Since you possess such miraculous abilities, can you foresee when this war between humans and demons will finally end?"

Hearing Wang Zhan's words, Qingluo couldn't help but frown slightly. After a deep sigh, she slowly said, "Before, that prophet once made a shocking prediction - this protracted war will become the last major battle, and it will truly determine the future life and death of our two tribes!"

These words were like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, causing a huge uproar in Wang Zhan's heart. For a moment, he didn't know how to respond.

Perhaps this is why I have experienced so many strange things along the way...

Thinking of this, Wang Zhan couldn't help but look up at the high and vast sky again, and sighed: "Alas... It's already so late, I think it's time to go back and rest." After that, he turned around and walked away.

"Yeah." Qingluo responded softly, then followed Wang Zhan's steps and walked towards the room where they had lived before.

The two of them were silent all the way, and the atmosphere seemed a little solemn and depressing.

As they walked, Qingluo suddenly seemed to remember something. She stopped and turned to Wang Zhan and said, "Sir, why don't you take a bath and relax? We have a naturally formed hot spring here."

At this moment, Wang Zhan was immersed in his own thoughts and did not pay much attention to the subtle changes in Qingluo's expression.

However, when he heard there was a hot spring, his originally heavy mood was instantly replaced by surprise. He became completely excited and shouted loudly, "There really is a hot spring? Haha, that's great! I've been wanting to take a comfortable bath to relieve my fatigue for a long time."

Seeing this, Qingluo smiled slightly, and then led Wang Zhan quickly towards the hot spring pool.

Soon, the two arrived at the hot spring pool.

The surroundings were filled with mist, like a dream, as if you were in a fairyland on earth. The warm spring water gurgled, and from time to time, curls of white mist rose up, which was refreshing.

Seeing this, Wang Zhan could no longer contain his excitement. He quickly took off his clothes, shoes and socks, and couldn't wait to jump into the water to enjoy this rare and pleasant time.

At this moment, when Wang Zhan was about to undress and enter the hot spring, he suddenly discovered that Qingluo beside him had no intention of leaving. She just stood there quietly, her beautiful eyes staring at him quietly.

Seeing this, Wang Zhan couldn't help but look a little embarrassed. After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "Um, um, don't you need to step aside?"

Hearing this, Qingluo's lips curled up slightly, revealing a playful smile. She replied softly, "My lord, there's no need to be so shy. We elves have always been quite open-minded about these things and don't take them too seriously. Besides, this hot spring has magical healing properties. I'm staying here so I can explain it to you in detail."

Faced with Qingluo's words, although Wang Zhan still felt a little embarrassed, he couldn't force her to leave. He could only nod helplessly and then slowly walked towards the hot spring pool.

The moment Wang Zhan stepped into the hot spring pool, a stream of warm water instantly wrapped around his exhausted body.

The feeling was as gentle and comfortable as a spring breeze, which made him sigh involuntarily. All the fatigue in his body seemed to be swept away at this moment.

However, just as he was immersed in this pleasant atmosphere, suddenly, the originally calm and mirror-like surface of the hot spring water began to emit a strange light.

This sudden change made Wang Zhan so frightened that he froze in place.

Qingluo, standing by, appeared remarkably calm and composed. She gently waved her hand, reassuring him, "Don't panic, sir. This is simply the normal reaction of the hot spring sensing a powerful force. In my humble opinion, you may be hiding many secrets."

After hearing Qingluo's words, Wang Zhan's doubts grew stronger.

He couldn't figure out why he had any connection with such a seemingly ordinary hot spring. However, before he had time to think deeply about this question, the flickering light around him began to dim gradually, until it finally disappeared completely.

At this moment, Wang Zhan suddenly had a wonderful feeling in his heart, as if the dormant power in his body was gradually awakening and beginning to recover at a slow and steady pace.

Although this feeling was subtle, for Wang Zhan, who was extremely sensitive to changes in his own strength, it was as clear as a bright light in the dark night.

As time went by, Wang Zhan could clearly feel the strength in his body becoming more and more abundant, just like the long-dry earth welcoming a refreshing rain.

He couldn't help but clench his fists, feeling the powerful force gathering in his palms again, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a satisfied smile.

"Not bad!" Wang Zhan said to himself excitedly, "I didn't expect this seemingly ordinary hot spring could actually increase my strength even further."
