Xuanyue allowed Dumb to hold her slender white hand and followed beside him. Her heart was filled with sweetness. The two of them entered the orchard. In the hazy fog, a sparkling and translucent gem-like fruit appeared in their line of sight. Dumb smiled and said, "Look, there are dozens of fruits here. Many of them look the same in color, but the taste is very different. Some are even poisonous. Look at this, doesn't this purple fruit look like a gourd? It's the king of the fruits here. Teacher named it Purple Dew. Not only does it taste delicious, it's also a great source of vitality. Two of them are enough for us to eat. Look at this, this is a Jade Peach. Although it's not as sweet as Purple Dew, it's still crisp and delicious. It has a unique flavor … "
Xuanyue quietly listened to Dumb's introduction. At this moment, he had the appearance of a supervisor. The way he introduced the fruits was so calm. Ever since she saw Dumb again, it was only now that he revealed a happy expression.
"Brother Dumb, don't pick anymore. These should be enough for us to eat. These fruits are so beautiful hanging on the miscellaneous books! Don't waste them. "
Only then did Dumb realize that the bamboo basket was full. He looked at Xuanyue and said, "Brother Xuanri, I don't know why, but I feel very relaxed when I'm with you. Ever since I found out that Teacher Goris had died, this is the first time I've felt so happy.
Xuanyue felt that Dumb's palm was slightly warm. Her head swayed and her pretty face blushed. "What are you thanking me for? Aren't we already friends? Friends. We should bring each other happiness! "
"Yes! Friends should bring each other happiness. I wonder how Brother Yanshi and the rest are doing? Brother, do you know Brother Yanshi and the rest? "
Xuanyue smiled and nodded. "Of course I know. Didn't I tell you? Yue Yue has already told me everything about the two of you. "
Dumb said, "Yanshi and Yan Li are both passionate people. Since I'm not in a hurry to take revenge, let's visit the Puyan people after we leave this place. After a year, I thought, they saw me. He must be very happy. It's a pity … "The voice stopped, and Dumb's expression became even more desolate, as if he was avoiding something.
"What's the pity?" Xuanyue asked.
Dumb shook his head and said, "Nothing. Let's go back and drink some water. It's time to rest. He did not know why. For the past year, I've loved to sleep. In the past, I cultivated every day, often not sleeping for ten days or half a month. Maybe she was infected by Xiao Xie. "Actually, what he wanted to say was that it was a pity that Yue was going with him.
Xuanyue nodded and followed Dumb back. That's right! Ever since she received the God's Baptism, she had not slept at all. She had been meditating all the time. Yesterday was the first time she had fallen asleep in two years. The joy of seeing Dumb again relaxed her body and mind. It felt so good to be with him!
When the wooden house appeared in front of them, Dumb let go of Xuanyue's hand. Back in the room, they ate the water that they had plucked. Xuanyue only ate three, the rest were eaten by Dumb.
"Brother, let's sleep. From tomorrow onwards, you will know that I use the divine weapon. "
Xuan Yue was stunned for a moment, and her face immediately turned red. He, he wants me to sleep with him? But, but.
No matter how deep Xuanyue's feelings for Dumb were, facing such an awkward situation, she still became shy and murmured, "Brother Dumb, I'm not used to sleeping with others. Aren't there two more rooms here? Why don't I sleep somewhere else? "
Dumb was stunned, and said with a smile, "We are all men, what are you afraid of? This is the only room we can sleep in. One of the other two rooms is a laboratory, which can't be used. And the other room. " At this point, he paused. The feeling of sadness filled the air, and the pain of missing his teacher kept entangling in Dumb's heart. He blew and said, "The other room is Teacher Goris's former dormitory. I want to keep that dormitory for him, so, it can't be used." Xuanyue felt Dumb's sadness, walked to his side, and said in a low voice, "Brother, don't be sad. Don't you have Goris's wish to accompany you? If your teacher sees you in so much pain for him, I'm afraid he won't be happy. How about this, you sleep in the room, and I sleep outside. "
Dumb's sadness was diluted a little by Xuanyue's words. "How can I do that? You are a guest, how can I let you sleep outside? Besides, it's very cold here at night. Alright, how about this, you sleep on the bed, and I sleep on the floor. That should be fine, right? I still want to ask you something about Yue. "
Xuanyue blushed, and said, "How can I do that? Didn't you say that the nights here are very cold?"
Dumb didn't pay attention to Xuanyue's expression. He put the bamboo basket on the floor and said, "The cold is for you. You magicians are very fragile, but I don't care. With the protection of my vital energy, the cold can't hurt me. I just washed it the day before yesterday, and it's very clean. "After saying that, he lay on the floor with the bamboo basket as a pillow.
Xuanyue walked over Dumb's body and sat on his single bed. Looking at Dumb lying on the floor, she suddenly felt how lonely he was, and a sour feeling appeared in her heart.
Dumb turned his head to look at Xuanyue, and said with a smile, "Brother, what's wrong with you? Lie down, and rest your energy today so that you can guide me tomorrow!" After saying that, he casually extinguished the only magic lamp in the room, and the room was suddenly plunged into darkness.
Xuanyue pulled the quilt away. She didn't take off her coat, and buried her head into the soft quilt. There was a refreshing smell on the quilt, and that warm feeling made her heart warm up. This was what Dumb usually covered her with! But now, it covered her body. Her pretty face was hot, and Xuanyue felt a faint sweetness in her heart.
"Brother Xuanri, did you learn magic from Lord Pope? Or else. How could you have such achievements at such a young age? I've seen Magic Shooters before, but they were all old people. I've only seen her become a Magic Shooter at such a young age. But you and Yue are siblings. You're probably not even 20 years old, and your magic cultivation is already so high. Your future is limitless! "
"Ah? Oh. "Xuanyue woke up from the sweetness," Yes! Grandpa taught me. "Unconsciously, she had already revealed the secret of the Holy Hall.
Dumb was shocked, and sat up from the floor, "Grandpa? Pope is your grandpa. "
Xuanyue then reacted, and murmured, "With your relationship with Yue, it doesn't matter if I tell you. Pope is indeed my grandpa. Only the senior leaders in the Holy Hall know this. Don't tell anyone. "
Dumby felt a chill in his heart. He already had a low self-esteem, and now that he knew that Pope was Xuanyue's grandpa, he suddenly felt the gap between him and Xuanyue was even deeper. Pope's granddaughter, what a noble identity! And himself? He was just an ordinary civilian, a civilian born a thief.
"Brother Dumb, why aren't you saying anything? Didn't you want to ask me about Yue? "
Dumb sighed and said, "I didn't expect that you and your sister have such a noble identity. Brother Xuanri, I'm really climbing up the social ladder to be with you."
"Brother, don't say that. What does our relationship have to do with identity? We're all your friends!"
How can it have nothing to do with it? It's because of identity that I can't be with Yue! Dumb took a deep breath and lay back on the floor. He looked up at the dark ceiling and said lightly, "Is Yue doing well in the Holy Hall? She loves to play so much. If she's being controlled, she must be very unhappy! "
The temperature under the quilt gradually rose, and Xuanyue felt a trace of warmth on her body. "She's doing fine. Now she's seriously learning magic from her grandpa. She knows that she's not strong enough, and traveling with you will only cause you trouble, so she's working hard. I'm just finishing my training, so she asked me to replace her. She said that she'll look for you after she finishes her training. "
Because he knew that Xuanyue was Pope's granddaughter, Dumb's interest waned. He couldn't ask all the questions he wanted to ask. He said lightly, "Brother, it's late. Go to sleep."
Feeling the change in Dumb, Xuanyue was shocked. She remembered the question in her heart and asked, "Brother Dumb, I heard from Yue that you promised the Queen of Elves that you would help her find her people who were kidnapped by the Thieves Guild in three years' time. Now that you've been separated for three years, have you found those elves?"
Dumb closed his eyes and recalled everything that happened in the Sunset Empire. He said hatefully, "So what if they've been found? Those bastards from the Sunset Empire humiliated their souls. There were a total of 16 elves, but only two are still alive. The other 14 chose to commit suicide after we rescued them. "
"What? Commit suicide? Why? "
"Because they've been humiliated too much. The dark forces of the Sunset Empire are so despicable. If I could, I really want to destroy them all …" Dumb's memories were triggered by Xuanyue's words. He recounted the encounters he and the Yanshi Brothers had in the Sunset Empire in detail, except for the part about Ice. He didn't even mention the female bandit who looked similar to Ice and often tried to assassinate him. In his memory, ice represented pain, and he subconsciously avoided it.
As she listened to Dumb's narration of the dark forces and the tragic experiences of the elves in the Sunset Empire, crystal clear tears covered Xuanyue's pretty face.
"After that, we brought the elven princess Xing 'er out of the Sunset City, but we were stopped by the chief judge of the Holy Hall. I thought he was going to harm us, so I used the Heavenly Thunder that Shiguan Tiangang Kensei taught me. In the end, I was seriously injured. If it wasn't for your grandfather, Lord Pope, who healed me with his holy magic, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to see me now. The power of the Heavenly Thunder is really strong. Unfortunately, I haven't fully understood it. It requires a certain amount of time and opportunity to use it. I was seriously injured when I faced the assassins that day. If not, those despicable assassins wouldn't have been able to take advantage of me. Look, my hair used to be shoulder-length, but it turned into ashes under the power of the Heavenly Thunder. It took me a year to grow my hair. "
After listening to Dumb's description of the various dangerous situations, Xuanyue felt her heart beating faster. Although Dumb spoke calmly, she seemed to be able to feel the intensity of the battle. Waves of fear sent chills down her spine. Dumb actually came back from the gates of hell so many times. How much pain did he go through?
"After that. We finally sent the elven princess back to the City of the Elves in time. It could be considered as helping the Queen Of Elves settle this matter! After leaving the Elven Forest, I parted ways with Brother Yanshi and the rest and came here. However, I never thought that Teacher Goris would leave me. I can no longer see his familiar face. "
Feeling the sorrow in Dumb's heart, Xuanyue murmured, "Brother Dumb, you actually suffered so much. Those elves are so pitiful! So the Sunset Empire is so dark. But, why didn't the Holy Hall get rid of them? These dark forces are definitely blasphemous to God! "
Dumb laughed coldly, "The Holy Hall is only acting in the name of holiness. For the sake of the Sunset Empire's financial support, how could they bear to get rid of the dark forces that provide them with large amounts of money? Do you still care if they are blasphemous to God? "
It was the first time that Xuanyue heard Dumb speak to her in such a tone. Her heart ached. She murmured, "I, I didn't know it would turn out like this. When we return to the Holy Hall, I will definitely ask Grandpa to stop the investigation. "
Dumb was still filled with hatred towards the dark forces of the Sunset Empire. He did not notice that Xuanyue's voice had a hint of a girl's voice. He sighed, "Forget it. You are not the Pope. What's the use of saying it? I'm afraid that even your father, the High Priest Xuan Ye, would not be able to do anything about it. Alright, you've heard my story. Brother Xuanri, I hope that you will not tell Yue about what I have told you.
If she asks, just describe it to her. I don't want her to worry, okay? " “
Xuanyue was shocked. She murmured, "Brother Dumb, you …"
Dumb sighed and said, "I just don't want her to worry. Don't think too much. It's late. Go to sleep."
Xuan Yue laid on the wooden bed, her mind racing. After listening to Dumby's story, how could she fall asleep? The pain that Dumb had gone through for the past three years had deeply shocked her. She had never thought that her beloved Dumb had gone through so many hardships. Pity surged in Xuanyue's heart. Her love for Dumb grew stronger. How she wanted to use her love to warm Dumb's heart that was gradually turning cold! After thinking for a while, she gritted her teeth and turned to the side. She said to Dumb, "Dumb, are you asleep?"
Dumb felt much better after telling her about his experiences in the Sunset Empire. Just as he was about to drift off to sleep, he was woken up by Xuanyue's voice. She asked in a daze, "What's wrong?"
Xuanyue took a deep breath. Her heart kept twisting. In the end, her love for Dumb won over her shyness. She said softly, "Brother Dumb, the floor is cold. You should sleep on the bed too! Let's squeeze. "
"Okay." Dumb didn't feel anything. He got up from the floor and sat on the bed. Xuanyue shrank her body closer to the wall to give him some space. Dumb lifted the blanket and crawled into the warm bed. The warmth brought by the blanket made Dumb's body relax. He felt even more sleepy. Although he was not afraid of the cold with the protection of Vital Qi, his own warm bed was still the most comfortable! He smelled an orchid scent. It was a familiar scent. Hmm, he seemed to have smelled it on Yue before. It turned out that even Xuanri's scent was the same as Yue's! Dumb as he was, he still didn't understand that the Xuanri he slept with was the Yue he yearned for day and night.
The single bed was not big. Dumb was tall. When he entered the blanket, the narrow space immediately became cramped. Xuanyue's delicate body inevitably touched his. Xuanyue's face turned red. She could clearly feel her intense heartbeat. She lowered her head and her body trembled slightly.
Feeling the change in Xuanyue, Dumb thought she was cold. He subconsciously pulled the blanket closer to Xuanyue and said apologetically, "The place is small. I'll make do! Cover me well. Don't catch a cold. " As he said that, he moved closer to the inside of the blanket so that their bodies were not exposed. He stuck close to Xuanyue's body. The softness from Xuanyue's body made him feel very comfortable. He put his arm on Xuanyue's body and gradually fell asleep.
The room was dark. Xuanyue felt that Dumb's body was so warm. A sense of satisfaction filled her body.
She put aside all her worries and gently leaned into Dumb's arms. The familiar feeling filled her body. Xuanyue was gradually intoxicated. If only she could sleep in Dumb's arms like this forever. How good would that be! Dumb's even breath gently blew on her face. Xuanyue moved closer to Dumb's not-so-handsome face and kissed him gently on the lips. A numb feeling like an electric shock spread through her body. Xuanyue felt that her body became even hotter.
Early in the morning, Dumby stretched and woke up from his sleep. A good night's sleep had given his body and mind enough rest. He moved his body and found that there was an extra person in his arms. He lowered his head to look. He saw Xuanyue's long blue hair. A faint fragrance came, causing the strange feeling in Dumb's heart to rise again. The blanket is really too small. Brother Xuanri must be cold, that's why he's leaning against me. Looking at the sky outside, it seemed to be getting late. In order to get rid of the strange feeling in his heart, Dumb gently pushed Xuanyue's delicate body away and sat up from the bed.
In fact, Xuan Yue had just fallen asleep not long ago. Facing the man she loved, how could she fall asleep? She kept looking at Dumb's sleeping face. Although she couldn't see it clearly in the dark, she was unusually satisfied. She was with him again, and so intimately. This made the love in Xuanyue's heart grow. She couldn't resist the drowsiness anymore and fell asleep in his arms.
Dumb stood up from the bed, stretched a few times, and walked out of the door. In the courtyard. The Holy Evil was still asleep. It had eaten too many nutritious fruits yesterday. It was constantly digesting and absorbing.
Dumb suddenly remembered the two ancient books that Xuanri brought him. He went back to his room and took them out. He sat in front of the wooden hut and started reading. After knowing the identity of Xuanyue and Pope last night, he really wanted to forget about Xuanyue. Only by forgetting could he avoid more pain. But, could he really forget? Although he was reading the ancient books, his heart couldn't calm down. On every page of the ancient books, there seemed to be a portrait of Yue.
Half a month later, in front of the wooden hut in the depths of the Forest of Illusion, a loud shout rang out. Five balls of holy light with a strong holy aura were shot out from Xuanyue's Angelic Staff, heading straight for Dumb opposite her.
Dumb looked at this level-five holy attack magic without the slightest bit of panic. His hands were behind his back, and his eyes were shining with confidence. Blue light shone from his chest, and the five balls of holy light accurately hit the blue energy, exploding into a rain of light. However, they didn't cause any damage to Dumb.
Xuanyue put down her staff and nodded in satisfaction. She said, "Big Brother, you've improved really fast! In just a few days, you've already mastered the basic usage of the ultimate defense of the Dragon God's Blood, the Dragon God's Cover. "
Dumby smiled and said, "I still have to thank you for your pointers! However, this Dragon God's Cover is really amazing. It can actually block any attack. As long as the opponent's attack doesn't exceed the power of the Dragon God's Blood and my own body, it's very difficult to hurt me. Unfortunately, this Dragon God's Blood itself is the highest level magic, and it consumes too much spiritual energy. Moreover, I can only barely use the most basic Dragon Body. "
Xuanyue said, "That's already very good. To fully unleash the power of the Dragon God's Cover is not something that can be done in a day or two. I've practiced the Phoenix's Cover for so long, but I can only make the shape of the phoenix a little clearer. When we can summon a fully formed dragon and phoenix, only then will we be able to fully control the defensive power of these two artifacts. Practice slowly, and one day, we'll be able to control it well. "
A huge black figure floated down from behind Dumb, and a huge dragon head stretched out. It was the Holy Evil. He came to Dumb's side, stretched out his front claws, and kept pointing at his chest. He blinked his big eyes, and looked very funny.
Dumb laughed. "Xiao Xie said that it's the dragon that I summoned!"
Xuanyue laughed too. Because she had treated the Holy Evil before, the Holy Evil was very close to her. Xuanyue liked this big guy who was as silly as Dumb. "Yes! How could I forget about Xiao Xie? It's the real dragon that you summoned. Brother Dumb, I've seen records of dragons in the books of the Holy Hall, but none of them described a dragon like the Holy Evil. Perhaps, when the Holy Evil is fully grown, its power will surpass that of the Dragon God's Blood. It'll be your fifth artifact! "
The Holy Evil looked proud. It lay on the ground, and put its big head between Dumb and Xuanyue, as if it was afraid that the two would not take it seriously.
Xuan Yue giggled and said, "Holy Evil, stop messing around. Hurry up and let your Brother Dumby practice how to use the divine tool. So that he can protect us in the future! "
Although Dumb's martial arts skills did not improve much in the year he was in the Forest of Illusion, he wanted to control the artifact, Goris. He kept improving his mental strength. In addition to the improvement he made to control the Life Energy, his mental strength had reached the level of a Magic Shooter. When Xuanyue realized this, she was so shocked that she could not close her mouth. To control magical artifacts like the Dragon God's Blood and the Ring of Protection required a huge amount of mental strength. What was most needed was a huge amount of mental strength. Although Dumby was still unable to fully utilize the effects of these two divine artifacts, in just a dozen days, he had already mastered their basic usage. This was already an incredible achievement.
Apart from being able to store items as a space bag, the Dragon God's Blood had two main skills. One was to use the amplification of the Dragon God's Blood to use light magic within the range that the mental strength could control. The other was to use the original energy of the Dragon God's Blood. His original energy contained two forms of attack and defense. The defense form was the Dragon God's Clasp that Dumb used just now, and the attack form was the Dragon God's Reincarnation. The Dragon God's Reincarnation was the same as using the Phoenix Blood to attack the Phoenix Reincarnation. The mental strength required was too large, and one needed to have at least the mental strength of a Magic Mentor to control it. Dumb and Xuanyue were still far from that level, so they could not use it at all. However, they had learned the ultimate defense of these two artifacts, even though it was still in its embryonic form. He had also displayed a strong defensive ability. Even Dumb's Life Energy, which was between the second and third transformation, could be easily broken. Dumb could clearly feel that although Goris used his life to refine the artifact Goris's Wish, the power of Goris's Wish was much weaker than the Dragon God's Blood. Xuanyue told him that this was the difference between a beginner artifact and an intermediate artifact.
Dumby's Ring of Guardian was also a low-level divine artifact. Like the Goris's Wish, it had two abilities. However, its abilities were all reflected in the defensive aspect. One of them was the ability to absorb the energy of magical attacks and convert it into the ring's own use. Dumb had unintentionally used this ability before. The first time he met Xuanyue was because he had absorbed the magical energy emitted by Xuanyue. Xuanyue told Dumb. Actually, this ability of the Ring of Protection was not very practical. It could at most absorb the magic emitted by a Great Magician. The most important effect of the Ring of Protection was its defense. It could instantly release a defensive barrier to defend against an enemy's attack when its owner's life was in danger. This kind of defense had two uses. One of them was that it could defend against an enemy's attack, but there was a corresponding defense limit. Dumby had unintentionally used this kind of defense before. It didn't need its owner to deliberately activate it. As long as it felt that its owner was in danger of death, it would automatically activate, and it could be used again after an hour. The other defense was the most useful to Dumb now, and that was the Absolute Defense. The so-called Absolute Defense meant that the Ring of Protection could instantly release a defensive barrier under the owner's incantation. No matter how strong the opponent's attack was, this defensive barrier could completely block it. When facing a strong enemy, this Absolute Defense was equivalent to the owner's second life. It was because of this ability that the Ring of Protection was called a artifact. Of course, the price to pay for Absolute Defense was also very heavy. Every time Absolute Defense was used, the Ring of Protection would need 49 days to recover its energy. During this period, it would completely become an ordinary ring. The biggest advantage of this artifact was that other than the Absolute Defense, normal defense did not require the control of mental strength. Even the Absolute Defense only required the mental strength of a Magic Shooter. With Dumb's current ability, he could barely use it. However, in order to cherish the energy contained in the Ring of Protection, he did not try it.
"Brother Xu Anri, with the Blood of the Dragon God and the Ring of Protection, I feel that my ability has increased a lot. At least my defense is more stable. I should not be so vulnerable in the future. "
Xu Anyue smiled and said, "If it wasn't for the possibility of assassins in Corpse Face, I would really like to see what the Ring of Protection's Absolute Defense looks like. The ancient records said that it could defend against any attack. If it was an attack from a god, would it be able to defend against it? " Her question would be answered in the near future, but it came at a great price.
At the mention of assassins, a chill rose in Dumb's eyes and he subconsciously touched the Hell King's Sword on his chest.
Feeling the change in Dumb, Xu Anyue hurriedly said, "Brother Dumb, it's best if you don't use this Hell King's Sword in the future! When I heard you say that you were almost controlled by it in the past, I was scared. Other than the Hell King's Sword, you can basically use the other three artifacts. With their help, you should be able to deal with normal situations. This Hell King's Sword is too evil, it is definitely the best of the evil artifacts. I heard from my grandfather that the most terrifying thing about the Hell King's Sword is not its monstrous evil aura, but its own consciousness. "
Dumb put down his right hand and asked doubtfully, "Consciousness?"
