Lu Ling stepped on the void, standing hundreds of meters high in the sky, looking down.

After figuring out the rules of the maze world, the maze array in the sky can no longer interfere with his perception.

At this moment, he was absolutely sure that the sandy land under his feet was where Nan Jue was stationed just now.

He now looks to the right and can see the magic signals of Mu Ningxue, with a frequency of once every thirty seconds.

On the left is the magic signal frequency of Mo Fan, which is about once a minute.

This kid is quite smart. After losing sight of Nan Jue's magic signal, he has been stationed at the same place and sent signals more frequently.

Now as long as Lu Ling sends a signal, Mu Ningxue and others will understand what he means and come to meet him immediately.

But now is not the time, Nan Jue has not been found yet.

"Make a note of the coordinates..."

He possesses the most accurate and perfect coordinates of a living body in the world!

Lu Ling cleared his throat and shouted softly.

"Brother Long...?"

The next second, the space around him immediately changed.

He took the lead in reaching out one hand, and then brought out his entire body.

One meter long silver-white hair, a little man over 1.4 meters tall, and those iconic, disdainful eyes.

Brat.

He's a cute brat.

Although she is never lenient, every time Lu Ling calls, she will appear immediately.

"What?" Long Zhanye spat out two words lightly.

She shrank slightly, as if she still remembered biting him just now, as if she was afraid of his revenge.

Lu Ling gently touched the top of little Loli's hair and said softly.

"Just stay here and wait for me. Don't move. Otherwise I may not be able to come back." His tone was like coaxing a child begging for candy.

"Oh."

Then, Lu Ling stopped talking nonsense and directly started a large-scale search centered on Long Zhanye.

Not long after, he saw the figure of Nan Jue in a sand dune.

Half of her body has been buried in the sand. If Lu Ling comes later, I am afraid she will be completely buried by the sand.

His blond, shoulder-length hair was covered in dust, his lips were chapped, and his face was as pale as paper. He was obviously exhausted.

Fortunately, Lu Ling can feel that she still has the breath of life.

He helped Nan Jue up and called softly.

"Nan Jue?"

No reaction.

Great Healing Paean was turned on directly, and warm white light poured down, repairing all possible injuries in her body.

He took out another bottle of water, gently opened Nan Jue's mouth, and poured it in slowly.

Water dripped down the corners of her chapped lips and wet a large area of clothing on her chest.

Gulu gulu...

"Cough cough... cough cough..."

The violent coughing made her whole body tremble, and finally pulled her back from the cliff of unconsciousness.

Nan Jue opened his eyes in a daze, unable to focus his sight, and could only vaguely feel that he was being held in someone's arms.

She blinked hard, trying to see the person in front of her clearly.

"Lu... ling?"

"Well, it's me." Lu Ling raised his hand, gently stroked her messy hair, and shook off the dust stained on it bit by bit.

After Great Healing Paean's repair, Nan Jue's condition was not particularly bad. Even her chapped lips became extremely moist. After a while, she completely woke up.

I also understand that it was Lu Ling who saved me.

"I'm sorry..."

Nan Jue suddenly grabbed Lu Ling's collar and buried her face deeply into his chest. Her voice was muffled and her shoulders were shaking slightly.

She blames herself very much.

"It's okay, just leave it to me." Lu Ling gently patted Nan Jue's shoulder and comforted him.

"I... let you be lost for a long time."

There were muffled whispers from the person in his arms, still carrying lingering self-blame.

She knew that she had already deviated from her original position, and she didn't even know how far she had strayed.

Lu Ling not only returned deeper, but even found himself. I don't know how much effort it will take.

"It didn't take long..."

Huhhhhh...

Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden strong wind around him.

Countless strong winds suddenly began to appear all around, and countless winds and sand surrounded a void.

There seemed to be a pair of eyes in that void, staring at Lu Ling and Nan Jue with resentment.

The sky is filled with wind and sand, which is basically a super sandstorm that can have self-awareness!

"It's it..."

Sensing the movement outside, Nan Jue raised his head in Lu Ling's arms, his pupils shrank suddenly, and there was deep fear on his face.

"It's the one attacking me... it keeps chasing me..."

She wanted to say something else, but Lu Ling stretched out his hand and gently pressed her lips.

"Stop talking and save your energy."

He put Nan Jue down gently, turned around, and faced the terrifying behemoth.

Sandstorm Wraith!

"Although my condition is not at its peak, but to deal with an ant like you..."

Lu Ling raised one foot and stepped hard.

"Evil dragon!"

Countless black energy surged out from his body, surrounding the small body, and gradually condensed into a hundred-meter-long black energy dragon.

Then comes the second, third...

Kowloon comes out together!

After Sandstorm Wraith sensed the aura emanating from Lu Ling's body, his vicious eyes revealed a look of panic visible to the naked eye.

The already violent sandstorm became violent several times in an instant, and the sound of the wind was as harsh as thousands of screams.

Even if it is only driven by resentment, the survival instinct is still its lowest level of programming.

The human being in front of him is not someone he can touch!

Unfortunately, when it realized this, nine evil black dragons had surrounded it, besieged it, and huddled up.

Round after round, constantly tightening.

Sandstorm Wraith made an extremely weird cry. The sound was distorted and broken, and it sounded like the remnants of human language.

But Lu Ling doesn't care.

He didn't bother to explore the source of this monster's resentment.

He always puts people first, but this Sandstorm Wraith hurt Nan Jue, and even hid aside, waiting quietly for her to be swallowed up by the yellow sand.

The sin is unforgivable!

The evil black dragon continued to gather, and the originally violent sandstorm gradually lost control, falling in large areas and turning into red sand all over the sky.

The evil dragon's attack is inherently cursed and is essentially a form of spiritual erosion.

Now the nine black dragons have swallowed up most of Sandstorm Wraith's remaining thoughts, and it can no longer drive the endless wind and sand to fight for it.

Soon, the hustle and bustle fell into silence.

All the evil energy in the white-haired young man's body was also suppressed and disappeared into the void, as if the terrifying sandstorm and his own strength had never existed.

Soul Gathering Technique.

Lu Ling reached out and put a faint green light spot into the palm of his hand.

Got another Monarch-level Spirit Essence...

After depositing Soul Essence into Vermilion Bird Vessel, he turned around and saw Nan Jue with a horrified face.

She half-stretched her body and froze there motionless, like a sculpture frozen in an instant.

That expression was still frozen between shock and disbelief.

Of course she couldn't believe it!

But all of this really happened in front of her.

She knows better than anyone how terrifying that terrifying sandstorm is that is chasing her. Only Monarch Level can match the existence that can exude that kind of aura!

But... such a monster that could kill her at any time could not survive a single move from Lu Ling!

Moreover, what kind of power did he use just now!?

She has never seen it before!

Lu Ling walked in front of her, only one step away from her, and Nan Jue finally came to his senses.

"Lu Ling, what on earth are you..." she murmured.

As a result, Lu Ling reached out his hand again and gently touched her lips.

"This is..."

Lu Ling paused for a moment, then smiled slightly.

"Our secret."

"... Hmm."

Nan Jue nodded blankly.

Even though the contact between the two of them was somewhat ambiguous at this moment, she couldn't bear to blush shyly.

The scene is still replaying over and over in my mind, the image of the white-haired young man stepping on the evil dragon and crushing the sandstorm with one blow.

"Let's go, the others are still waiting for us."

"Okay."

Saying that, Nan Jue was about to get up.

But she couldn't stand up at all, her legs were weak.

"Lu Ling, I..." She raised her head awkwardly.

"Huh?"

Lu Ling looked at her with a bit of doubt in his expression, but also seemed to have a knowing smile.

"I can't stand up..."

"You want me to hold you?"

"Well, if you can..." Nan Jue nodded.

Before she could finish her words, Lu Ling stretched out her hand and pulled her into his arms.

Nan Jue subconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck, and their posture suddenly became a bit ambiguous.

Then, Lu Ling made a super long-distance Instantaneous Movement, directly reaching Long Zhanye, and then directly transmitted the magic signal.

Nan Jue looked at Lu Ling's side face so close to him, Nan Jue was a little lost in thought.

She knew that Lu Ling had always been beautiful, but she never imagined that she could be so beautiful...

"Thank you..."

A small voice came from the person in his arms.

"You saved me again."

"No, it's not troublesome."

"But this is very important to me." Nan Jue said.

"Should I be happy? It's actually worth your concern." Lu Ling lowered his eyes and slightly curved the corners of his lips.

"..."

Nan Jue's face turned red visibly.

"If you don't want to be too embarrassed later, it's best to close your eyes and pretend to sleep now." Lu Ling said suddenly.

Nan Jue still didn't understand what it meant, Lu Ling added.

"They're coming soon."

"..." After hearing this, she closed her eyes almost instantly.

At the same time, the hand holding Lu Ling's neck tightened a little, and she got a little closer to Lu Ling.

Somehow, she seemed unwilling to leave this warm embrace, the embrace that gave her peace of mind...
