Liu Yan was a little unclear about the specific routes in this area because she had been separated from the demons and only remembered the general locations where she was scattered.

"Let's start our search from this side." Lin Jingge led the way, first arriving at a street lined with houses of varying heights. The wooden doors creaked loudly when pushed open.

Liu Yan cupped her hands around her mouth and called her companion's name several times, but no one answered her and there was no sound. Disappointed, she had no choice but to leave.

Then they did the same to several houses. If there were many bedrooms, they shone a light on each one to check if there were any living creatures.

Unfortunately, apart from water dripping from the rubble, there was no other sound.

They didn't give up, searching every house and every place, no matter how dark or scary, they had to investigate.

After walking through three streets, only a few thatched huts remained. Lin Jingge mentally prepared herself beforehand, then pushed open the door, and a thick layer of dust fell down.

Liu Yan called out again, and this time, unlike before, a weak response came from inside, followed by three dusty heads peeking out.

The three of them looked over in disbelief.

"Holy Maiden! I didn't expect you to still be alive! I thought those demons who were tainted by evil energy had come back to find us again!" his companion exclaimed in surprise.

"You actually hid here! I've been looking for you for so long..." Liu Yan was extremely surprised. She rushed forward and carefully checked the three of them to see if they were injured. Finally, she hugged them and almost burst into tears.
