"Long Xiao, I need to return to the Wind Thunder Pavilion and discuss this with Yu Xuan. I'm afraid we really don't have much time left."
After this incident, Xia Yun Yun had also realized how dire the situation was.
"Mm." Long Xiao nodded in agreement.
Yao Lao had never expected things to turn out this way either. Only after encountering those people himself did he understand how terrifying they truly were. Even he had never seen some of their methods before.
Long Xiao looked at the people around him and asked slowly, "What about you? What do you have in mind?"
"Ah, I intend to visit my old friends. If possible, I'll ask them to face this calamity alongside us."
Yao Lao spoke slowly. He had been away for far too long, and he had far too many regrets.
"I, Xiao Huohuo, may not be some great man who can hold up the heavens, but this is my homeland. Even if no one remembers me, I'll fight to the death to protect it!" Xiao Huohuo's gaze was resolute.
Long Xiao patted Xiao Huohuo on the shoulder and smiled. "Your big brother was right about you, and so was Senior Keyboard Immortal. Once everything settles down, I'll take you to the Primordial Star Domain to fulfill his final wish."
Curly scratched his head and chuckled as well. "Hehe, big brother, I ain't got much education, so I can't make grand declarations like Brother Xiao. But I feel the same!"
"I'm willing to stay by your side forever, Brother Long Xiao."
Bai Ling'er nodded earnestly as well.
"Good! Then we'll weather these hardships together!" Long Xiao declared in a ringing voice.
Medusa stood to one side, watching Long Xiao brimming with such boundless pride and passion, and smiled with infinite tenderness.
