Fengchu City: Wolong, Guigu, and Langya Academy?
Li Xunle patted the dust off his clothes, preparing to leave.
Li Chen, Sword Saint nodded slightly, controlling his sword as he spoke, "Alright, let's head back!"
Suddenly, he stopped and looked at Li Xunle, asking curiously, "By the way, was that a Teleportation Skill you just used? The one where you instantly appeared somewhere else..."
Li Xunle: "Yes, Teleportation Skill."
"Then do you still need to ride my sword?"
"Of course, Teleportation Skill requires many uses, your Sword Control Technique is much more convenient."
"Alright!"
Li Chen, Sword Saint stroked his chin, "Quick, get on! Let's go home."
But the next second, Li Chen, Sword Saint noticed the sky was dark.
He hesitated and said, "This is troublesome. It's too dark to see the way now..."
Li Xunle: "So you mean?"
"How about we find a place to spend the night? And leave in the morning?"
"Alright!"
Li Xunle nodded in agreement.
The sky was already dim, and it was even harder to move around at night.
Mainly because they couldn't see clearly, traveling at night was truly troublesome.
Li Chen, Sword Saint looked at the entrance of the Qilin Cave, his eyes lighting up, "How about we just stay at the entrance of this cave?"
"Sounds good."
Li Xunle reached into his pocket for his phone and asked Li Chen, Sword Saint, "Do you still have battery on your phone?"
"My phone broke during the battle, what about yours?"
"It's out of battery..."
Hearing this, Li Chen, Sword Saint shook his head helplessly, then picked up two handfuls of thatch and stuffed them into the muddy wall at the cave entrance.
He leaned back against the thatch and closed his eyes to rest.
He wondered how his sister was doing now.
Fortunately, the equipment in his bag was enough to sell for a lot of money.
Even after paying back the 3 million, he should still have a good amount left.
He spoke softly, "Li Xunle, do you have any good channels to sell equipment?"
"Sell equipment? I currently sell to Xia Bingxue's family."
"Xia Bingxue?" Li Chen, Sword Saint was a little surprised.
He was a reclusive person with few friends, so he knew very little gossip.
Therefore, he wasn't very clear that Xia Bingxue's family was in the business of buying and selling.
"Yes, do you want me to introduce you? Xia Bingxue's brother, Xia Changhe, is very easy to talk to and welcomes people who sell equipment."
"Sure, then you can take me with you."
"Alright, we'll go first thing tomorrow morning when we get back."
"After we get back, I'll go to the hospital to see my sister first. Do you want to come with me? Controlling the sword will only take a few minutes, then we can go sell the equipment?"
"No problem!"
Li Xunle nodded.
He didn't mind those few minutes.
Time flew by.
At this moment, Wolong City's Ninth District was experiencing a living hell!
Monsters rampaged, slaughtering humans, destroying facilities and buildings, with blood flowing like rivers.
Streets, squares, rooftops, houses, hospitals... horrific events were happening everywhere.
Adventurers were constantly sacrificing themselves, and at the same time, monsters were dying.
Perverted Transcenders like Wang Hao and Lin Yu were controlling ferocious beasts, eliminating monsters everywhere.
Wherever they appeared, the nearby monsters were quickly cleared out.
But in many other places, Adventurers still found it difficult to kill monsters.
They were struggling to cope!
This situation, besides Wolong City's Ninth District, was also happening in a few other places in Xia Country... A night passed in an instant.
Some slept soundly, some stayed awake all night.
Some indulged in debauchery, some experienced separation and death.
Some were in various positions, some were in various states of demise.
Land of Divine Punishment.
Li Xunle was woken by the cool morning breeze, slowly opened his eyes, and breathed in the fresh air.
It was another beautiful day!
He slowly got up, looked around, and found Li Chen, Sword Saint still sleepy-eyed.
He couldn't help but call out, "Li Chen, Sword Saint?"
"Sword Saint?"
"Handsome guy?"
Finally, there was a stir.
Li Chen, Sword Saint slowly opened his eyes, his hazy gaze falling on Li Xunle.
"Hmm... you're awake?"
Li Xunle took two steps outside and observed, "Yes, let's go, let's head back home!"
"Okay."
Li Chen, Sword Saint lazily got up, stretched his whole body, and skillfully summoned his sword in front of him.
"Let's go! Get on the sword!"
After Li Chen, Sword Saint finished speaking, he was the first to jump on, and Li Xunle followed with a leap.
Li Xunle couldn't help but ask, "How long will it take to fly to Wolong City by Sword Control Technique?"
Li Chen, Sword Saint pondered for a while, then said uncertainly, "Probably half a day!"
Li Xunle nodded at his words and didn't ask further.
Li Chen, Sword Saint directly flew with his sword, and the two stood on the giant sword, looking very graceful.
The rapidly passing cold wind whistled.
It was a bit cold, and it stung their faces... Li Xunle suddenly had an idea, "Wouldn't it be very messy if you used Sword Control Technique on a rainy day?"
"You're overthinking it."
After Li Chen, Sword Saint finished speaking, a layer of protective qi-like substance subtly appeared around his body.
He said proudly, "Although the protective effect of this body-protecting qi on me is weak, it's enough to block wind and rain."
"Then why didn't you use it just now?"
"I was afraid if I used it and you didn't, you'd feel unbalanced..."
"If that's the case, then you've underestimated me!"
After Li Xunle finished speaking, he directly raised his hand and cast Divine Protection on himself.
A golden shield protected his entire body, lasting 30 minutes with a 20-second cooldown.
From level 45 to 66, he had put all his points into Intelligence, so the buff effects of his skills had significantly improved.
Immediately, the cold wind could no longer invade Li Xunle's body.
Li Chen, Sword Saint suddenly smiled, "I overlooked that. You're still a Priest, adding status effects is like playing a game for you, isn't it?"
He paused, "Then I'm going to speed up!"
"Go, accelerate to the highest speed!" Li Xunle wasn't worried at all.
Li Chen, Sword Saint made a gesture.
The giant sword shot towards the northeast of the Land of Divine Punishment like a streak of light... After flying for about 10 minutes.
Li Chen, Sword Saint suddenly noticed three figures on the ground fighting a giant monster.
His eyes narrowed slightly, realizing he couldn't see clearly.
"Li Xunle, there are three people down there, do you want to go take a look?"
"Sure, if it's those Japanese remnants again, I'll scramble their eggs!"
Li Chen, Sword Saint smiled at his words.
The Sword Control Technique slowed down... The two of them brazenly hovered in the air, observing the three people.
The three people on the ground also noticed the two flying on the sword and were very surprised.
The three immediately stopped attacking the monster.
Instead, they watched Li Chen, Sword Saint and Li Xunle with vigilance. The three on the ground were all wearing masks and had their faces covered.
Li Chen, Sword Saint and Li Xunle stared at the three in confusion.
They stared at each other.
Suddenly, one of the tall figures among the three, holding a longbow, spoke to confirm, "You are Xia Country people!"
Li Chen, Sword Saint and Li Xunle were not surprised, as they had both taken off their masks.
Li Xunle asked calmly, "And what about you? Who are you all?"
"Zhuge Qi from Wolong Academy, Fengchu City."
"Gao Jianli from Guigu Academy, Fengchu City."
"Lin Tianya from Langya Academy, Fengchu City."
The three answered in turn, and took off their masks to show their identities.
Li Xunle saw that the three were holding a bow and arrow, a longsword, and a long saber, respectively.
It seemed the three were exceptional, otherwise, they wouldn't dare to come to this Land of Divine Punishment.
However, since they were all Xia Country people, there was nothing to make things difficult for.
Li Chen, Sword Saint turned his head and quietly asked Li Xunle, "Shall we go then?"
Li Xunle nodded, "Let's go!"
Seeing the two about to leave on their sword, someone spoke up to ask, "Who are you two?"
Li Chen, Sword Saint and Li Xunle spoke separately:
"Li Chen, Sword Saint from Fengchu Academy, Wolong City!"
"Li Xunle from Fengchu Academy, Wolong City!"
After speaking, the two streaked across the sky like a flash of light, speeding towards Wolong City.
The three below looked at each other, constantly speculating, "Not simple! Only the Holy Sword Control Technique can carry two people!"
