The expression on Mengze's face seemed to be a mix of sadness and happiness, as if he was holding back tears and holding back laughter.
"Deadwood!"
Mengze couldn't help but call out Dead Tree.
Xue Zhi on the side felt a sense of separation between life and death.
"What were you doing in the Dark Realm? Making her worry about you so much?"
Xuezhi leaned close to Kumu and looked at the crying little girl with pear blossoms in the rain and asked Kumu quietly.
"Is it just a problem with my ability? It can't be used normally, and it's a bit dangerous when I use it. And because I was targeted by the enemy in the dark area, the probability of survival is very small. Now I can stand up It’s truly a miracle here.”
It's really not surprising to say that.
Xuezhi looked at Mengze who was crying, and slowly squatted next to Mengze, touching Mengze gently, because the difference in stature was like a sister to a sister.
"Okay, there's no need to cry. I see you haven't had a good rest. Don't faint from excitement. Take a rest now!"
Xuezhi's caring words and the appearance of dead wood finally put Xuezhi's worry at ease. Without the support of his mental will, Mengze also felt tired instantly, and his upper and lower eyelids immediately started to fight.
"It's good that you're okay."
The moment he fainted, Kumu hugged Mengze and then put her back into his house.
"Hey, let her have a good rest."
After Mengze was settled, Kumu and Xuezhi also left the apartment where Mengze was. Before leaving, Kumu wanted to say something to Mr. Li Qingfeiying.
As a result, Master Liqing went out for something, and now only Master Feiying is in the apartment.
Feiying glanced at Dead Mu for the first time and felt angry.
Although Master Feiying is very plainly dressed, she has the aura of a noble lady, which she has cultivated through the friction of time since she was a child. Now the feeling she gives to Kumu is the same as giving him two million to let her leave. The momentum of his own daughter.
"What's wrong with Feiying-sama?" ("It seems to be because of Mengze. Feiyingliqing-sama seems to like Mengze very much!")
Although I understand in my heart, I still have to ask for the exact reason.
"The bell-breaker is back! If you don't come back, I will go to the dark realm to find you!"
Sure enough, it was his own problem. It was his own fault that made Mengze feel uncomfortable, so Feiying didn't give Kumu a good look. After that, Feiying sighed helplessly.
"Originally, we have been comforting Mengze, but we can't control her thoughts. As a result, she is getting weaker and weaker. Fortunately, you are back safely. That child has been alone since she was a child and has only her mother to depend on. You are her second She is a person who cares very much, and everything you do will affect her thoughts, but it is not serious yet, and it is not the kind that makes her feel uncomfortable after being separated for just one day."
Feiying told Kumu about Mengze's current situation. As for Xue Zhi next to him, he was stunned for a while. He didn't expect that Mengze missed Kumu so much.
Feiying knew that Kumu sent Mengze back for Mengze’s safety.
"Mengze told us all, I know the decision you made is correct, but it's just a bit of a mental drain on Mengze. I just want to tell you. Take care of her more in the future, do you understand?"
"yes."
Deadwood can still do this, but it needs to be made clear to Mengze before that, otherwise it may become serious.
"what do you want to say?"
After Feiying and Kumu talked, it was Kumu's turn to speak.
"It seems that no one in the Dark Territory knows about the existence of the pillars. I would like to ask Mr. Liqing something about the time when the Dark Territory was built."
"That's okay. I'll tell him when he comes back."
"Then I have nothing more to say. I will leave the rest of the matter to Sister Feiying. I still have a mission and I have to leave now!"
After telling Feiying everything, Kumu discussed with Xuezhi about going to the forging city.
"To be honest, I don't know, because I've never been out before and this is my first time!"
"ah?"
Xue Zhi couldn't believe Kumu's memory of staying at home without ever traveling far away. Later, thinking about Kumu's previous experiences, Kumu had a hard time living well.
"Yeah, it's okay! I know where it is, but we can investigate it beforehand."
Yuzhi knew about Forging City, but after all, he was not from the city and still needed to get to know it better.
.....................
The founder of Forging City has the ability to give weapons abilities. He can give some abilities to the weapons he forged. Of course, there is no exaggeration. After that, he spent his whole life forging weapons and created countless supernatural weapons, but except for this No one outside of humans has such an ability, so after his death, the number of supernatural weapons in the world will not increase.
Things are rare and valuable. Originally, ability weapons were extremely terrifying in the eyes of ability users. In addition, after they no longer appeared, the Forging City was valued by many ability users. Fortunately, there are powerful ability users guarding the forging city, otherwise this place would be absolutely There will be no shortage of man-made disasters.
"This place looks scary."
Even if you have never been to Kumu and Yukiori, you can feel the intensity of the struggle in this place.
Fang Hua was sent there this time. According to Fang Hua's ability, something would happen to him. The Palace of Light really doesn't care about people.
"This time we have to look for the connection between this place and the Palace of Light. Mengze has discovered weapons with abilities in the Palace of Light before, and among the four major families, the Palace of Light holds the largest number of weapons with abilities. It must be forged There will be no shortage of connections between the city and them.”
.....................
After agreeing on a date for the walk, Kumu and Yukiori prepared to set off.
Originally, Haoyue wanted to provide Kumu and Xuezhi with a bodyguard, but Kumu thought it would be better to protect them in secret. If they were discovered by the Palace of Light, they would be wary of them.
So Xishan, also known as Xi Lao, was assigned by Haoyue to protect the two of them.
Because of its reputation, this forging city has developed easily. Now the forging city is a modern super metropolis.
This time, Xue Zhi didn't want to attract attention. She returned to the conservative girl's dress. She pushed up her glasses and looked at the powerful and dense buildings in front of her. This was grander than the metropolis she and her parents had been to before.
"To be honest, this place is quite luxurious! It's better than the city center of Jingming City!"
"Indeed, I can only say that there are differences between cities."
Kumu and Xuezhi who came here were like country people who had never seen the world. Everything became very new in their eyes.
According to Teacher Haoyue's instructions, they need to find the whereabouts of the Hall of Light.
"Let's go there!"
"So fast?" Xue Zhi pushed up her glasses and wondered how Dead Tree found the Palace of Light in such a short time.
The Hall of Light always carries a sense of brilliance and will become the focus of society wherever it goes.
Kumu pointed to a flyer on the ground, which stated the arrival of the Guangming Palace Brigade.
"This Hall of Light is really not modest at all!"
Following the flyer, he looked for Kumu Xuezhi and soon discovered the Brigade of the Hall of Light, including several people he knew.
"Those are the eldest lady and young master of the Hall of Light."
Kumu saw two people among the crowd. The fact that they were here meant that something big was going to happen here.
"Um?"
Seeing several black shadows appear behind Zheng Wen, Ku Mu thought he was wrong at first, but then he felt a disgusting aura, which was the same aura that appeared on Qiu Zhenyuan and his junior brother.
Just for a moment, this aura disappeared.
"Is it that guy?"
Kumu looked around and then determined the location where the aura appeared just now, which was next to Zhengwen.
"What's going on? It obviously didn't happen before."
Xuezhi looked at Kumu's distracted gaze and knew what he had discovered. He waited until Kumu finished thinking and asked what happened just now.
"Can you feel it Yukiori?"
Kumu motioned to Xuezhi to also read the text.
Xuezhi nodded and opened his own mental barrier, but found nothing.
"There is no suspicious soul behind any text. It is rare to find such a place with a lot of people."
"Um."
Yukiori's judgment made Kumu confirm that there were no evil spirits around Zhengwen, so the source of this smell could only be that Zhengwen's body was stained with other people's souls.
"Is it possible..."
Connecting the recent soul events, Kumu had a terrifying conjecture in his mind.
("Is it possible that the young master of the Hall of Light has absorbed the soul?")
"There's something wrong with this so-called text? The main reason is that we don't have any evidence now."
Although Kumu didn't say anything, Xuezhi followed Kumu's guess.
"Let's continue to observe."
Although the result is already known, evidence of the process still needs to be obtained to bring the Hall of Light to justice.
"That's Fang Hua."
Xuezhi grabbed Kumu's sleeve with his hand and pointed to a location not far away, where Kumu's friend Fang Hua stood.
Fang Hua's eyes happened to be looking at where Ran Xin was.
Because many people near the text basically go there because of the name of the Hall of Light, some are curious, some are flattering, some are attracted by handsome guys and beauties...
Fang Hua looked at Ran Xin in the crowd, and the more he looked at her, the more he looked like his former friend. He was so absorbed that he didn't realize that Ku Mu and Xue Zhi had already walked towards him.
"Is Zero Zero Seven here?"
"ah!"
Fang Hua felt that the voice was asking him, and he thought he had been discovered after sneaking out.
"I'm sorry, captain, I'll go back right away!"
Fang Hua bowed to Kumu Xuezhi and apologized deeply, saying that he should not have run out while working.
"what's up?"
After hearing the familiar voice, Fang Hua slowly raised his head and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it was dead wood.
"I was scared to death. I thought I was discovered by the captain."
