September is a season of harvest.
As the prosperous galaxy encountered a fierce invasion by the devil's army, they headed straight for areas with high resources and crops, affecting the harvest in many places this year.
In contrast, the exiled Tianlong was not valued by the Empire before. As the stations connecting it to other galaxies were disconnected and cancelled, the original devil army also intended to move their base. This unexpectedly led to the fact that Tianlong is now thriving and harvesting a large amount of goods under the unity of the whole people.
Tianlong has fertile land and sweet water, and the fruits and vegetables grown here are fresher and sweeter than those grown in other places.
The quality of the chickens, ducks, fish, shrimps, cattle, sheep, etc. raised is also carefully controlled. In addition, many businessmen originally wanted to start contacting Tianlong, which directly led to a huge increase in Tianlong's trade exports this year.
Xu Qingran had an event at the end of the month, so he finished what needed to be done by the middle of the month.
Regarding the urban planning of Yinxing and Tianlong City, he, as a rough man, was better at fighting and could not handle the literary matters, so he could only entrust the discussion and planning to Adjutant Mao and the civil servants in the Tianlong system.
He only needs to hold regular meetings with them to follow up on urban planning, and then discuss and finalize decisions with everyone and implement them step by step.
"Colonel Xu, be careful on the road!"
After Xu Qingran confirmed the work arrangements, he walked out of the Dongcheng office building in a low-key manner.
As a result, the news that he was going on another "business trip" had spread throughout the camp at some point, and the guards he met all warmly sent him off: "It's just an open negotiation, Colonel Xu, go ahead!"
"Just follow the previous method! If there is another blind guy who bullies you, just beat him up!"
Xu Qingran was amused: "You guys want to send me to the evil tower again so that you can kick me out of Tianlong and take over on your own, right?"
The guards were immediately anxious: "That's not the case!"
"The devil's matter has not been completely resolved yet, and we still need the Colonel's command!"
"Yes, yes, and the geographical location of the Tianlong system is the most unsafe in the empire. In addition to the demons, we have many foreign races to defend against. How can we bear to let the colonel leave!"
Xu Qingran raised his eyebrows and deliberately prolonged the ending tone: "Oh, if these things can be resolved in the future, you won't need me anymore, right?"
Everyone shouted in unison: "No!!"
I was so anxious that my cheeks and neck turned red, but I was too tongue-tied to know what to say to resolve the misunderstanding.
Xu Qingran was just joking with them.
Seeing that everyone was getting mad, I waved goodbye to them in a good mood.
On the way, he happened to meet the guards who had stormed into his old office and smashed it on his first day at work.
He smiled at them and said, "I might be away for a long time this time. I hope my office won't be smashed to pieces when I come back."
The guards were indeed ashamed of what he said.
He waved his hands and assured her: "No, no, it's all a misunderstanding! Colonel, please rest assured that we will help you keep your office clean while you are away!"
Xu Qingran had just finished chatting with the military guards in the camp and was about to go to the airport when he saw a companion from Mu Zisheng's starship running towards him, shouting, "Master Xu, Master Xu! Wait a minute!"
The other party's tone was filled with joy: "Young Master, I have good news!"
The white dog's companion, the big black dog, woke up.
The man asked him, "Young Master, do you want to go take a look before you leave?"
His answer was unquestionable: “Yes.”
Xu Qingran boarded the aircraft of Mu Zisheng's friend and flew with him to North City.
On the way, he also talked to him about Mu Zisheng: "Your captain's grievances have been cleared, and he and Mu Zixuan can now return to the Empire and appear before the public without worry. You should all be very happy these days, right?"
Unexpectedly, the other party's expression was not as happy as Xu Qingran had expected, but rather a little worried.
He sighed, "Well, we are definitely happy for the boss, but his own reaction was not very happy. On the day of the live news broadcast, he went home and locked himself in his room for two days after watching it."
"After he got out, he regained his usual energy, but he never mentioned the slander he suffered that year."
"I don't know what I'm thinking."
The person in the driver's seat was also very sad: "We were happy, but after thinking about it, we found that there were many things we needed to consider."
For example, whether Mu Zisheng and Mu Zixuan will stay or go.
Clearing their grievances would mean they would be recalled by the empire and return to the royal family. They had been together for at least ten years, and they had gathered together because of Mu Zisheng, so they were as familiar as a family.
Now thinking about their imminent departure, the reluctance in my heart quickly overshadowed the joy.
Xu Qingran listened and did not comment further.
This is something that Mu Zisheng and his team need to resolve internally.
Returning to the starship he hadn't been to for a long time, everyone on the ship greeted him in a friendly manner.
Xu Qingran came to the familiar medical department. Mu Zixuan was in the hall counting a batch of herbs that had just been brought from North City.
When she saw him, she was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Colonel Xu, long time no see."
"Now when I see you, I have to subconsciously make sure that my more dangerous drugs are well kept."
The last time Xu Qingran met Mu Zixuan and the others was when he knocked Shen Tingyu down and left with an excuse.
Hearing this, he said shamelessly: "Don't worry, I won't steal next time."
"If I need anything, I'll ask you directly."
Mu Zixuan smiled.
The boy's fair face was rosy, and he looked pretty good: "Come on, I'll take you to see them."
The white dog and his companion are still in the last ward.
Mu Zixuan said: "Fifth brother's method is quite effective. The greatest miracle in the world is indeed love."
Whether it is friendship, family or love.
The call of emotion, the bond and obsession with the other party can always awaken a soul that is unwilling to wake up.
Outside the ward, one could see the two large dogs in the room circling each other.
The internal and external injuries of the black dog had long been healed, and he was able to get out of bed and move around soon after waking up. Apart from the fact that he had only relied on liquid food and glucose for these years, which caused him to lose a lot of weight and become a little weak, there was nothing serious.
Before Xu Qingran entered, the white dog had already noticed his arrival.
He immediately let go of the black dog that was still rubbing against his neck, walked to the door to greet him, raised his head and rubbed it gently against Xu Qingran's palm, looking very happy.
Xu Qingran rubbed its cheeks: "You have lost weight."
Immediately, he felt another strong gaze.
The one who was looking at him was the black dog who had just woken up.
Its eyes were a rare golden color, and it was wary of him—and even of the surrounding environment and people. Its cold and fierce eyes were like the dissatisfaction of seeing its beloved thing being taken away.
Xu Qingran thought that this black dog had a bad temper.
Just as he finished thinking, he heard the white dog beside him making a low threatening sound, and the target of its threat was his partner.
Obviously, it was dissatisfied with its ferocious attitude.
The black dog probably has the attribute of being a wife slave, and he especially listens to and fears his wife. After the white dog's warning, the black dog, who was so majestic and looked like he could kill everyone present, immediately sat down obediently and behaved himself.
It had the majestic appearance of a Blue Bay Shepherd Dog, but it whimpered weakly at the white dog in grievance.
It's hard to imagine that it was once the king of dogs.
With the white dog watching, the black dog didn't dare to have any opinions about its partner's new companion.
It could only endure the humiliation when Xu Qingran came up and even started to touch it. However, when Xu Qingran touched it, it felt the soft spiritual breath from him that was similar to that of its partner, and it soon became really fragrant.
Xu Qingran looked at the two big dogs, one black and one white, and said to the white dog, "I have something to do and I don't know when I will be back."
"What are your plans now? If you want to go back to Tianguang Mountain in North City, I respect your decision."
He is not the type to ignore the other person's wishes and force the people and things he likes to stay around him.
—Except the dog man, of course.
The white dog gently bit Xu Qingran's trouser leg.
For their entire clan, choosing a contract partner meant deciding to give up their original freedom and being willing to fight side by side with their partner. So if Xu Qingran wanted to leave, it must want to follow.
The white dog has been invincible in the North City and Tianguang Mountain over the years.
For it, becoming the dog king is just because there is no one in the pack who can beat it, not because it has to hold on to this position. And its children with the black dog have grown up. It saved them from the evil people, but it doesn't expect to protect them forever. When they are old enough to let go, of course they have to start living their own lives.
Xu Qingran is always running around.
The white dog hopes to see a wider world beyond the North City and wants to compete with more biological groups.
Xu Qingran understood what the white dog meant.
So on the way back, I brought two big dogs with me.
It was Mu Zisheng who sent him back to Dongcheng.
He flew quietly in his own aircraft, carrying him and two big dogs.
In the car, Xu Qingran took the initiative to say to him: "I heard from your friends that you haven't been in a good mood recently."
Mu Zisheng paused without looking at him: "I just, this all happened too suddenly, I'm not ready yet."
“I don’t know what to do next.”
To be honest, returning to the palace in glory was once Mu Zisheng's biggest wish and obsession. In the first few years after he was driven away, even though Shen Tingyu secretly helped him, he still felt resentful.
I thought that one day I would achieve better success outside and give Mu Ziyue and Su Ya a slap in the face.
It was not until he met a group of like-minded friends that he gradually forgot his pain as he followed them on their adventures. Even Mu Zixuan, who had almost shut himself off because of the shock at the beginning, became happy.
He is now confused about his future choices.
"The time we humans can live is also very limited." Xu Qingran suddenly said.
"Perhaps you feel that as a prince, you need to take responsibility for the huge problems and chaos that have occurred within the royal family. However, if the causes of these chaos have nothing to do with you, you don't need to blame yourself too much."
Xu Qingran took out the dried meat that the people of North City gave him from the snack bag and fed the white dog while saying, "If you are really worried, you can go back and take a look."
“It’s also a good idea to think carefully about where you want to live the rest of your life through environmental experience.”
Xu Qingran has experienced many separations and deaths along the way.
He actually doesn't care much about this, except that his goal is clear: "There are some places where you don't have to stay forever. There are some people where separation doesn't mean you can never contact or meet again in this life."
"Your feet are on your own body. If you want to go somewhere or do something, just go for it."
After listening to this, Mu Zisheng was silent for a long time.
It was not until he sent Xu Qingran back to the East City Camp that he solemnly said to him, "Thank you."
Xu Qingran smiled and waved to him, then walked towards his aircraft with the two big dogs without looking back.
The location for this meeting was chosen to be the Silver Dragon's Sky Serpent System.
It was not the military headquarters, but the place where Muyesha's main research institute was located. The situation in Tianshen was quite chaotic, and in order to ensure the safety of all participants, Muyesha, who was in charge of hosting the meeting, simply decided to set the venue in his own territory.
Anyway, I'm not afraid of Jin Yi's people coming to cause trouble.
It takes seven or eight days to travel from Tianlong to Tianshe, a system that is far away from everywhere. Xu Qingran left the system almost half a month in advance to prevent any accidents.
It turned out that his concerns were justified.
Halfway through the journey, Xu Qingran had just passed the Poseidon system's space station checkpoint and came out into the uninhabited waste planet area when he was suddenly surrounded by a group of demons. They forced him to a nearby waste planet and attacked his aircraft, attempting to shoot him down.
Xu Qingran was not flustered by the sudden situation.
He asked White Dog and Black Dog to squat in the defense cabin in the rear cabin, and was about to operate the console to launch a counterattack with his combat aircraft, when his consciousness was suddenly forcibly pulled away. He struggled for a moment, and before the scene in front of him was completely blacked out, he pressed the position under the console.
Only then did he let his consciousness go and let the other annoying guy in his body leave.
Xu Qingran's gaze shifted into his own sea of consciousness.
He saw an endless expanse of pale blue, which was the spiritual power glow in the spiritual pool. In the light, he could not see the appearance of the super-high-level consciousness of the devil clan, but only heard its angry voice asking: "Xu Qingran, why does my consciousness seem to be trapped by you?"
"Are you lying to me?"
Xu Qingran exclaimed, "Did you just realize it?"
"You guys always like to claim that you are highly intelligent life forms, but I think you are actually cutely stupid."
From time to time, something like electromagnetic waves could be seen in the glow of the spiritual sea.
If you look closely, you will find that their flashing routes are combined, like a large net, covering the entire spiritual sea. And every time the invading energy approaches actively, it will be burned and corroded by the energy of the electromagnetic wave.
It only tried it for one day, and its energy weakened a little.
If this continues, it will be slowly worn down by these microcurrents without Xu Qingran having to fight back.
After the leader of the demon clan found that his consciousness could not easily break out, he decided to start devouring Xu Qingran's soul with the idea of going all out. However, just as he approached, he found that there was another lightning energy in his soul that he hated even more, which frightened him so much that he dared not act rashly.
In anger, he finally realized that this was a 'trap' set for him by Xu Qingran.
—Who would have thought that after years of fighting against humans, there would be such a perverted guy with his own 'power system' in his body? !
"Anyway, even if it wasn't me and Shen Tingyu today, you would definitely find another carrier to survive."
"So I might as well sacrifice myself, lure you in, and then destroy you."
The devil king laughed.
Said: "Just a little human like you?"
"Indeed, I am only a consciousness now. In your consciousness, you do have the power to fight."
"But don't forget how fragile your human body is." The devil's voice was sinister, and the degree of disgust could not help but remind people of Mu Ziyue. "Can you really deal with my people while fighting me?"
"Once you are attacked by them from the outside, the energy of your injured soul will also begin to dissipate, right?"
Xu Qingran and his aircraft are now in an uncontrollable state.
Xu Qingran asked the devil: "If my body is damaged, won't you who are trapped in my body also die?"
The devil sneered, his tone arrogant: "That's why I say you humans are weak. How can my mental power be compared to that of ordinary humans like you? Even if your internal organs are damaged, I can repair them with my mental power. Even if you lose both eyes, I can regenerate new ones!"
"If there is no other choice, I don't want to live in such a fragile body like yours."
Xu Qingran thought, so that's it.
If we want to make the devil disappear, we can only destroy its consciousness. The power of the electromagnetic wave net is somewhat weak compared to its mental power. If we don't deal with it before it breaks through, it will be bad if we let its consciousness escape and continue to harm others.
The devil has now invaded Xu Qingran's body a little deeper, but has not yet completely replaced it.
So Xu Qingran struggled a bit and regained control of his body. When he opened his eyes again, he found that his aircraft was damaged due to the attack, and because no one was controlling it in time, it was falling at a very fast speed.
If it is not slowed down and avoided, a direct collision with the ground from such a high altitude would shatter even the best aircraft into pieces.
The alarm in the cabin continued to sound.
Xu Qingran endured the discomfort of the devil trying to pull away his consciousness, tightly grasped the remote control rod, reconnected his mental power with the transmitter of the aircraft, and increased the release of mental power. After a lot of trouble, he finally got the aircraft back into a balanced flight state before it landed.
Even so, the fuselage was severely damaged by the attack of a group of demons summoned by the Devil King.
Xu Qingran tried his best, but it was just enough to prevent the aircraft from exploding and disintegrating. The fuselage stumbled into the sandy ground, rubbing against the ground for a long time, and finally stopped after colliding with a huge rock.
Soon, a cloud of black smoke began to rise.
"Please note that the system is offline! Please note that the system is offline!"
The aircraft's operating system collapsed after the impact.
Xu Qingran shook his head which was inevitably hit, unbuckled his seat belt and went to the rear cabin, where he released the two big dogs that had also experienced a thrilling experience in the defense cabin. He then kicked open the cabin door and went out with them.
The system said weakly in his mind: "I'm still here, and I haven't logged off yet, host."
When Xu Qingran heard this cowardly mechanical voice, he felt both angry and amused.
After coming down, I asked it, "Did that guy notice your presence?"
"No, I'm staying with the power for now, it doesn't dare to come in."
"But its invasion progress has exceeded that defense line, and I can't block it now." said the system.
"It doesn't matter." Xu Qingran said as he stared at the group of devil soldiers surrounding him outside, "We'll take care of it today."
The system was nervous: "But host, you are alone... well, let's just add two dogs!"
"But the black dog is still recovering, and the white dog and you both have limited energy. In addition to dealing with external threats, you also have to worry about internal troubles and backstabbing..."
The glow of spiritual power appeared in Xu Qingran's eyes again.
He drew out the psychic knife from his waist, released the first wave of psychic detection instantly, and immediately grasped the location of the source crystals on those demons.
The power of thunder and lightning, driven by his mental strength, climbed up the weapon in his hand.
He curled his eyes, with a murderous intent that had not been seen for a long time: "Have you forgotten? Someone said that I am not alone."
"So, I just have to hold on until then."
At this time, under the jurisdiction of the Silver Dragon, there is the space checkpoint station of the Cygnus system.
"Hey, hey, hey, the cross-camp restriction between the two camps has not ended yet, you can't just force your way in!"
"You cannot enter our Silver Dragon system without a permit—"
The warship with the golden wing emblem broke through the widest checkpoint without restraint. It ignored the station guards' obstruction and forcibly broke through the defense gate to re-enter the starry sea. Facing such a large combat starship, the space station guards were completely helpless.
They chased and shouted from behind, but the warship had no intention of paying any attention.
After setting up the nearest jump point, they disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye. The guards in the station were about to contact the guards at the nearby station when someone ran out of the office and stopped them: "Wait, no need to make a call!"
"Let them pass."
The guard holding the communicator in his hand looked puzzled: "Why?"
"I just received a call from the Second Princess, who ordered that all stations in the Silver Dragon system should give the green light to any warship with that number that they encounter."
"The commander of that battleship seems to be Shen Tingyu..."
Ever since Xu Qingran promised Shen Tingyu not to take any risks, he would basically report to him no matter what he did next.
Including the progress of the devil's invasion in his body, his itinerary, and even reporting his location to him through his mobile phone or communicator all the way from Tianlong to the Sea God System. After all, Shen Tingyu has understood the devil's cunning.
This is to prevent any unexpected situation from happening and requiring emergency assistance when Xu Qingran is not by his side, so that he can keep track of his location at all times.
Including the emergency contact button that Xu Qing later set on his aircraft, as long as it is pressed, it will automatically send the real-time coordinates to Shen Tingyu's mobile phone. Although there is only this one message, they had already agreed that the triggering of this message means that the situation is very urgent and he needs to find someone to help immediately.
During Xu Qingran's return trip, Shen Tingyu had been leading his troops to patrol the area closest to Xu Qingran's location. So as soon as he received the news from Xu Qingran, he could rush over as quickly as possible.
When he received the message from Xu Qingran, he was wandering around the public border area between the Swan System and the Golden Wing District. From there, it would take about three days to reach the coordinates provided by Xu Qingran at the fastest speed of the warship.
Also on the starship with him was Xie Nanjun.
When he found that the starship suddenly changed its route, he ran from the ground floor to the command room on the top floor, slapped his hand on the metal table next to Shen Tingyu, and asked: "What are you doing? Didn't we already have a plan for the encirclement and suppression of the demon group in Area A3? Why did you change the route halfway?"
Xie Nanjun has been talking to Shen Tingyu like this recently, with a slightly disrespectful tone.
It was as if he was arguing and angry with Shen Tingyu.
He was indeed angry with Shen Tingyu.
But he was mainly angry—Shen Tingyu, that idiot, didn't even tell him that he and Xu Qingran were dating after being friends for many years! Thinking back to all the things he had done in front of them before, he even went to his house to ask him about his mysterious lover.
It turns out that these two people have joined forces to make trouble for him!
Such a clown!
After Xie Nanjun asked angrily, he heard Shen Tingyu, who was looking directly at the navigation route, answer: "Xu Qingran is in danger and needs help."
After many days, it was rare to hear this familiar name from Shen Tingyu again.
Xie Nanjun subconsciously asked nervously: "Danger? What danger? What crazy thing has he done again!"
After asking, I realized that he was still angry with Shen Tingyu and Xu Qingran about something that was concealed.
He coughed a few times to make amends: "That is to say, he is a colonel of the Silver Dragon Battalion. Even if there is danger, he should look for the Silver Dragons. Why would he look for us?"
Shen Tingyu finally turned his head to look at him.
With a half-smile on his face, he asked, "Tell me, why?"
After asking, he walked down from his main command desk and went to the front driving control console to ask the person in charge about the navigation status.
Xie Nanjun was left standing there in shock.
It took Xie Nanjun a while to react.
I thought to myself—Did he just get fed a big mouthful of dog food in front of his face
Normally the trip lasted three days, but Shen Tingyu shortened it to two and a half days.
The warship entered the waste star area and quickly locked onto Xu Qingran's most likely location. Because from a distance, the radar had already sensed a lot of demons from above, the number was astonishing, and even showed that some were continuing to gather towards that place.
"Wow, does Colonel Xu from Silver Dragon have some treasure on him?"
If Shen Tingyu had not told them in advance that they were going to help Xu Qingran, the guards on the ship would have thought that they had accidentally discovered some high-value planet.
"I heard he was the only one there? With so many demons, it's impossible that he would have..."
"No." The girl in charge of data observation tilted her head and said seriously, "It is obvious that the target of this group of demons is Young Master Xu. If he is dead, they will not continue to go to that place."
She analyzed it carefully: "Under normal circumstances, the number of demons on that waste planet is enough to deal with a psychic."
"But they keep looking for help. Obviously, that's because the target they want to deal with has not yet reached the state of extinction they expect."
After hearing this, everyone was even more shocked.
If what their data analysts said is true, it would be even more terrifying!
The only difference is that the terrifying object has changed from the devil to Xu Qingran.
- He was alone, what kind of strength did he have to last that long? Even General Shen couldn't do it with such a terrifying endurance!
Fighter planes can fly faster and land more easily than bulky warships.
So when they were only tens of thousands of miles away from the waste planet, the first batch of soldiers responsible for finding out the situation and clearing the way were released first and headed straight for the waste planet where Xu Qingran was. Shen Tingyu handed over the control of the warship to Xie Nanjun and followed them.
When Xu Qingran was found, he was in the body of an X-type demon.
I don't know how he climbed to the top of its head, hooked the hard little horn on its head with one hand, and with the other hand raised a gun and shot accurately at the Type I mother organism running towards him a hundred meters away.
The beam of mental power was as thin as a fish thread, and the power of thunder surrounded it like a tiny dragon.
The source crystal on the body of the I-type was hit, and with just one strike, the source crystal with extremely high defense value was immediately shattered. The giant I-type collapsed like a tidal wave before it approached him. Without taking a breath, he immediately changed to the spiritual force knife and aimed at the head of the X-type under him.
The X-type kept shaking its head and tried to attack him with its tail.
He dodged it, but the X-type accidentally hurt itself in the chaos, and raised its head and let out an angry sharp cry.
Xu Qingran found the right moment and stabbed the knife hard into the center of its head.
The mental force that rushed out from the tip of the knife, mixed with the power of supernatural powers, shattered the source crystal in its body.
The source crystal of a high-level devil was as fragile as an egg in Xu Qingran's hands.
It shattered with one blow.
Without the source of energy supply, even the energy in the X-type body was rapidly dissipating.
The light in its eyes dimmed, and its complete body, which was composed of many chimeras, began to split apart, like a collapsing mountain. Xu Qingran slid down along its back before its body disintegrated, and just like that, he followed the sea of collapsed fragments and landed safely before they all scattered like petals.
As soon as he came down, he turned around and slashed at the low-level Type II that rushed towards him.
After dealing with the X-type, there was still a large group waiting for him below. Fortunately, there was a white dog as powerful as him, still fighting with him.
The Golden Wing reinforcements who landed were stunned by the scene before them.
Xu Qingran is really still alive!
Two or three days passed, and he was actually still fighting!
Only Shen Tingyu's observation of him was more detailed.
He knew that no matter how strong his endurance was, it was almost reaching its critical point. If he continued to indulge himself, his mental pool would be overloaded like his previous base at the defense station.
Xu Qingran's reaction became somewhat slow as his body became heavier and more tired.
Especially since he had to deal with the pain radiating from his body at the same time. If it weren't for the help of the white dog and the black dog in the early stage, he might not be able to maintain his current condition. The injuries on his body would probably be more than twice as serious as they are now.
Xu Qingran was distracted for a moment, and a Type I was about to attack him from behind.
By the time he found it, it was already very close, and he didn't even have time to find out the location of the source crystal on it. Just as he was about to take action, a beam of light suddenly shot out from the side, and the mental power controlled the same delicate beam as his, accurately hitting the Class I.
It only took one strike to break the source crystal on its body.
Xu Qingran took a few breaths on the spot.
Without turning around to look, he just smiled at the pile of body fragments that had not yet melted away on the ground.
His reinforcements are coming.
Those who followed Shen Tingyu were all elite soldiers.
Their presence helped Xu Qingran relieve the pressure greatly. Seeing that the white dog was trying to mobilize its mental power to continue helping, Xu Qingran patted its head and said, "It's okay, go back to the cabin and rest first. I can handle it from now on."
The white dog also consumes a lot of energy.
The black dog had already used up all the strength it had just recovered, so they took the opportunity to send it into the aircraft to rest.
After receiving his instructions, the white dog glanced at Shen Tingyu who was coming towards them, and gave up trying to hold on. Instead, he turned around and ran towards the aircraft where the black dog was resting.
Shen Tingyu quickly cleared out the demons near Xu Qingran and came in front of him.
He hardly rested, and his face looked much paler when he looked at him closely, indicating that his mental energy was over-consumed. The hair on his forehead was already wet, and even the hair on his temples was all stuck to his face.
Xu Qingran raised his eyes to meet those deep blue eyes and let out a soft breath.
The deep consciousness was struck again, and he felt as if his soul was shaking.
"Shen Tingyu, let me tell you, I'm really awesome."
As Xu Qingran spoke, he put the spiritual knife in his hand back into the scabbard, relaxed his tense body slightly, and then let himself fall forward.
Shen Tingyu in front of him hugged and supported him in time, holding him in his arms.
Xu Qingran's head rested on his shoulder, slightly raised.
The starry sky was like a painting, reflected in his eyes.
He curled his eyes and continued, "I have been behaving myself these past few days and have refrained from using my special abilities recklessly."
"I'm afraid that some man will think that I'm seriously injured and dead, and worry that my life span will be shortened, so it's not good to cry secretly while I'm unconscious."
Shen Tingyu tightened his hold on him.
He whispered, "I'm not crying."
Xu Qingran laughed again.
The soul consciousness felt like it was being pulled again.
This time his support came, so he could rest assured and no longer have to worry about the situation outside.
Before closing his eyes, he said to Shen Tingyu: "I'm going to sleep. It's normal if you can't wake up for a few days. Don't worry."
"Next time you open your eyes, if I'm still myself, remember to welcome me back."
"If I am no longer myself, please kill me before my new consciousness escapes."
