With the departure of Qingling Taoist, everything has co to an end.
It's over.
The battle in Sunset City has settled.
When Ding Hui and Sheng Yuan received the ssage from Lord Hai Lin, they began to work together to stop the activation of the Array.
Of course, Sheng Yuan mainly operated it, while Ding Hui was assisting and learning beside him.
Soon, the City Defense Formation started to dissolve, aning their task was complete.
Since the ssage was sent by Lord Hai Lin's people, it naturally indicated that Lord Hai Lin had won this victory!
"To defeat the Believers... I wonder what role the Array played in that battle."
Ding Hui mused aloud.
"Now that the Array is lifted, I'm going to prepare to go out of the city to find soone."
Sheng Yuan and the three Deputy Captains who escorted Ding Hui were taken aback.
"Out of the city? At this ti?" The guard looked at Ding Hui as if she were insane.
Although a battle had just ended, the dangers in the wild remained unchanged, especially at night when demons frequently appeared, making it incredibly dangerous, especially since...
"I rember that the leader of the Demon Extermination Team heading out of the city was Qingling Taoist."
"That's right, it was him." Ding Hui nodded, then said, "That's why I have to go out of the city. My husband is in the Demon Extermination Team outside the city. Now that only Qingling Taoist has returned and no one else has, I plan to go out and search for them."
Sheng Yuan and the guard exchanged glances.
"You... plan to go out of the city alone?" the guard couldn't help asking.
Sheng Yuan frowned and said, "Forgive for being blunt, Miss Ding, your husband's situation is likely dangerous, and going out to search won't change a thing."
Ding Hui smiled.
"Isn't that why the Hai Family is here? Lord Sheng Yuan, the Hai Family should still have a lot of manpower left, right? The Bloodman Crisis is over, so the Hai Family's manpower should be free now. Why not lend so people to help find them outside the city? There are quite a few Hai Family mbers in the Demon Extermination Team too."
This statent made Sheng Yuan's face turn a bit somber.
With Qingling Taoist's betrayal, the Hai Family team out of the city is undoubtedly in grave danger too.
They advised Ding Hui not to go out of the city because they were concerned about her safety.
However, their team out there also needs to be found sooner or later, but not right now.
A battle just ended, and chaos is rampant inside the city. Handling city affairs alone is overwhelming, leaving no resources to send people out searching, let alone where to go, what place to search, and the environnt outside, all is unknown and full of potential risks.
"The Hai Family... probably can't send many people to help you."
In the silence, Sheng Yuan finally spoke up.
"No matter, lend as many as you can; I have so connections myself. It's just a matter of paying the price."
Things like wealth and dicine Pills are just external matters; Ding Hui doesn't care much about them. Or rather, compared to soone's safety, those things are worthless.
"To be willing to go to such lengths..." Sheng Yuan was stunned.
When he first t this woman, he felt that her deanor and gestures expressed a kind of indifference towards people.
Unexpectedly, she was so loyal to her feelings.
Indeed, appearances can be deceiving.
The guard was also touched.
Feeling a rush of heat in his head, he spoke, "In that case, I'll accompany Miss Ding out of the city! After all, the Family Head's order is for to protect Miss Ding's safety. If you encounter an accident outside the city, I won't escape punishnt either."
Ding Hui knew the excuse he gave was just for appearances and smiled at him.
"Then I'll trouble you to look after on this journey."
After so contemplation, Sheng Yuan also spoke.
"Miss Ding, I personally cannot accompany you, but my old face still has so sway. Please wait patiently for an hour, and I'll use my connections to gather so people to accompany you out of the city."
"Lord Sheng Yuan!"
Ding Hui was delighted.
As the Array Master of Sunset City, Sheng Yuan's network is extensive, unmatched by ordinary people.
The individuals he can call upon for help are either well-known or capable, greatly enhancing the security of this outing. Even if they encounter Diao Deyi and others facing strong enemies, this team can make a difference.
"I owe both of you for this favor. I will repay it in the future."
They both just smiled.
Undoubtedly, a favor from an Alchemy Master carries significant weight.
The Deputy Captain's guard began to contact his subordinates, while Sheng Yuan sent people to notify so old friends to assist. Ding Hui was naturally working her own network, offering high prices to hire those who valued money above their lives and were willing to accompany her out of the city.
While the three of them were gathering people, a ssage reached them.
"The Demon Extermination Team has returned."
What?!
Ding Hui froze, then rushed out.
The guard finally reacted and quickly followed her, while Sheng Yuan, considering his age, couldn't keep up and didn't run outside.
But since the Demon Extermination Team has returned, Qingling Taoist's plan must have completely failed, right?
Even though Sheng Yuan had never faced Qingling Taoist personally, it wasn't hard to deduce that, in Qingling Taoist's plan, the Demon Extermination Team sent away was destined to be exterminated.
