It was unknown when the fine snowflakes stopped falling, but the sky was still hazy. The mournful north wind whistled and curled up. Even someone as valiant as Longyi couldn't help but shiver. It wasn't because of the coldness in his body, but rather because of the desolate scenery of the frozen land.
Longyi yawned and stretched his waist. Looking at Bertha who was blushing, he said with a smile: "What are you mumbling about so early in the morning? You are really disturbing my sweet dreams."
Bertha lightly spat and snorted: "It's more like disturbing your sweet dreams. If we don't go out, the sky will turn dark again."
Bertha was right. In this season and in this kind of weather, the daytime was very short. The sky brightened late and the sky darkened early. Especially this kind of hazy weather, it couldn't be called daytime. It was fuzzy and dim. In his previous world, people could even bump into electric poles.
After a long time, the two women who were dawdling inside for a long time put on their clothes and walked out. The blush on their faces had yet to dissipate. The earth-shattering pleasure just a moment ago made the two women extremely charming.
"Okay, pack up the tents and go out." Longyi shouted. Each of them put their tents into their space rings and the five of them began to step into the entrance of Huangmang plain.
Huangmang plain had now truly become a wasteland. The weeds that originally reached the waist were blown by the north wind and stuck to the ground, just like a layer of extremely soft yellow carpet. What was strange was that the entrance of Huangmang plain was only a line away from the border of Proud Moon Empire, but the environment was completely different. Other than a thin layer of snow on the border, there was actually no snowflakes in other places. Instead, there were sparkling and translucent ice crystals on the weeds. When one stepped on them, they would make a creaking sound.
"Ha, really fun." It's so fun. "Bertha cheered, jumping left and right, having a great time, just like a little girl.
"Wimpy brat, what fun is this?" Nalan Ruyue softly muttered. Obviously, she was in a bad mood because of Bertha's early morning disturbance.
Bertha's ears were quite sharp. Turning her head, she made a face towards Nalan Ruyue and played with her snow-white tail while wagging.
"Alright, stop playing around. Let's move forward," Longyi shouted.
The deeper one went into the Huangmang Plain, the less affected they would be by the cold air. Unlike the borders where there was not even the slightest bit of life, the magical beasts had all migrated inwards.
On the fourth day after entering the Huangmang Plain. Magical beasts of various ranks began to flood the area. A few years ago, Longyi's group had slaughtered the magical beasts without mercy, but it didn't seem to affect the magical beasts' reproduction. But that's true. The Huangmang Plain was huge, and there were tens of millions of demonic beasts living in it. The number of demonic beasts that Longyi had killed was innumerable.
Longyi released the tiger cub, the Fire Qilin, and the Thunderbeast from the Dark Dimensional Space and let them chase the demonic beasts around. Ever since the tiger cub had turned pure white, its strength had increased rapidly. However, compared to the Fire Qilin and Thunderbeast, it was far weaker. This Divine Beast was just a facade. Longyi couldn't help but think of Dragon Two. He didn't know when the shadow within his body would be able to completely repair it.
The current state of mind of Longyi and others couldn't be compared to a few years ago. At that time, Longyi's strength was like heaven and earth compared to now. The magical beasts of the Huangmang Plain were no longer a threat to Longyi. Even if they encountered a magical beast, so what? With three Divine Beasts by his side, in addition to Longyi and Wu Shuang, these two terrifying existences, even an SSS-ranked magical beast would have to bow down.
Twenty days later. In the central part of the Huangmang Plain, a group of people stood on a protruding slope and looked at the ruins not far away. The ruins were still shrouded in a layer of faint black mist. A dense dark aura blew over.
"Father, mother, the people of my Holy City, Bing Ning has returned … …" Wu Shuang's white robe fluttered in the wind. Her eyes were filled with sadness as she looked at the Holy City in front of her. This was her home, but now, only a despairing ruin remained.
Longyi and the others silently looked at Wu Shuang from behind. They didn't disturb her. She needed a space to release her feelings.
In a dream of a thousand years, the sea of mulberry trees had already turned into a vast field. All of her loved ones were buried underground and turned into soil. The familiar world was no longer there. No one could remain calm.
Suddenly, a crystal clear tear slid down from Wu Shuang's face. It was blown by the wind and landed on Longyi's face. Longyi felt as if his heart was being twisted. Wu Shuang's feelings were truly reflected in Longyi's heart. It made him feel pity and heartache.
"The Huangmang Plain is my root. There are amiable people there. There are countless fresh flowers. The majestic Holy City is my home. There is a brilliant civilization there. There are beautiful families." Wu Shuang slightly opened her mouth. A melodious song resounded in the Huangmang Plain. This should be a song praising the Holy City. However, the originally cheerful song sounded so sad when it came out from Wu Shuang's mouth.
Nalan Ruyue and Bertha's eyes were filled with tears. Their hearts were as soft as cotton. They were moved by the sadness of Wu Shuang and felt sad together with her.
Wu Shuang sang over and over again. In the end, tears streamed down her cheeks. Step by step, she slowly walked towards the ruins. She tried her best to recognize the city where she was born and grew up.
"My husband, should we go and persuade elder sister Wu Shuang? She is too pitiful." Nalan Ruyue pulled Longyi's sleeve and said with tears streaming down her face.
Longyi shook his head and lightly patted Nalan Ruyue's head. He sighed and said: "Let's follow her from afar. Don't disturb her. This is her world."
Longyi looked all around. The scene of him exploring the Huangmang Plain with Leng Youyou, Lucia and Bull appeared in his mind. At that time, with their weak strength, they were actually able to come out of the Huangmang Plain alive. It was really a miracle.
This Lost City had just arrived a few years ago. At that time, it still maintained a little bit of its original appearance. However, because of triggering a mechanism in the City Lord Mansion, this Lost City had basically been buried underground. The ground was covered with weeds and only some broken tiles could be vaguely seen.
Kacha kacha, suddenly, many undead creatures wearing broken armors and holding rusty weapons crawled out from the ruins. Longyi and others immediately stepped forward and closely followed behind Wu Shuang, assuming a defensive posture.
But strangely, these undead creatures didn't attack. Instead, they formed two long lines and stood on both sides of Wu Shuang. When Wu Shuang moved forward, they would also move forward. When Wu Shuang stopped, they would also stop. It seemed as if they had become the guards of Wu Shuang.
"It has already been several thousand years. Could it be that these undead creatures still recognize me as their master?" Longyi thought in a strange manner. However, the civilization of Lost City had reached a level that Longyi didn't dare to imagine. So, it wasn't strange for something to happen here.
Gradually, along the way, more and more undead guards followed them. In the end, there were two to three thousand undead guards. It was an entire undead army. Wu Shuang acted as if she didn't feel anything. The tears on her face had already dried up, and her expression had become as cold as before.
After a long time, Wu Shuang came to a wasteland and stopped. Here, the dark aura was the densest. Wu Shuang's mouth began to close quickly. She chanted an obscure incantation. Water magic elements began to crazily condense. Although this place was shrouded in dark aura, with Wu Shuang's strength as a Magic God, it was easy for her to cast her magic.
"Water Lotus Break." Wu Shuang shouted. The ice blue staff in her hand emitted a circle of light blue light that went straight into the ground.
Soon, the whole ground began to violently tremble. The surface of the ground began to emit bursts of water columns.
"Boss, what kind of magic is Wu Shuang using? Is she going to make some spring water to drink?" Bull asked Longyi with a puzzled face.
Longyi shrugged his shoulders. Feeling the tremors coming from the depths of the ground, he said in a bad mood, "Keep watching and you will know. Don't talk nonsense."
Just after Longyi finished speaking, the tremors of the ground suddenly intensified. The huge tremors made people want to vomit blood. Bull was careless and fell to the ground. As for Nalan Ruyue and Bertha, they cried out in alarm and grabbed Longyi's arms.
Suddenly, an explosion sounded and a huge water column mixed with soil soared into the sky. That momentum made people wonder whether the end of the world had arrived or not.
Fortunately, this water column only appeared for a short time. Longyi spread out a barrier to block the water column and soil. With such a huge impact, even a Swords Master would vomit three liters of blood if they were smashed by it.
"Ah … … look, how did this house come out from the ground?" Bertha was dumbstruck looking at the big house in front of her.
Longyi was also somewhat stunned. Because this house that was forcibly pulled out from the ground by Wu Shuang was the City Lord Mansion that they had explored before. It was also the former home of Wu Shuang. He didn't expect that the great earthquake at that time only buried the City Lord Mansion even deeper and didn't cause it to fall apart.
As the dazed Wu Shuang walked through the door, she discovered that the expected magic lamp didn't light up. Thinking back, when Longyi entered the door, the magic lamp on the wall automatically lit up. Now, those devices might have already been damaged.
After passing through the hall, they arrived at a long corridor. Perhaps because there wasn't any ventilation for a long time, the smell here was very unpleasant. The dense dark aura coupled with the smell of decay made people feel nauseous. However, Longyi and others weren't pampered young masters and young ladies, so they could naturally endure this.
Wu Shuang walked along the corridor for a while and stopped in front of a door. Longyi vaguely remembered that it was in this room that he found the magic crystal ball with Wu Shuang's appearance. Presumably, this should be the boudoir of Wu Shuang.
Sure enough, Wu Shuang stretched out her somewhat trembling hand and pushed open the door and walked in. The layout of the inside had already been damaged. Those furniture, bed and the like had already fallen apart. With a light touch of her hand, they turned into powder and fell down.
