“Is it over?” Lin Qiye stood at the edge of the fog, looking at the black shadow that disappeared at the end of his sight, and raised his eyebrows in surprise, “It’s faster than I thought…”

"Perhaps it was the breath of the ancestor god that scared him away." Wang Mian let out a long sigh, his silver-white hair floating in the air. "During this period, my Great Xia suffered a series of fierce battles. Both the Great Xia God and the Night Watch were seriously injured... I'm afraid it will take a long time for them to slowly recover."

Bang--!

As soon as Wang Mian finished speaking, a cloud of blood mist exploded from his back. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly due to pain, and time went back to one second ago.

"Does it hurt?" Lin Qiye couldn't help but ask when he saw this.

"It hurts." Wang Mian paused, "But I'm almost used to it."

Lin Qiye looked at the old face with a complicated expression. He said softly, "You... have worked hard."

"It's not hard. If I hadn't come to this, I wouldn't be able to save my team members." Wang Mian seemed to have thought of something, and a smile appeared on his painful face. "With the law of time and enough lifespan, I will be able to bring the Mask team back soon."

This was the first time that Lin Qiye saw such a smile on Wang Mian since he stepped into the ceiling of humanity, as if this was the driving force that supported Wang Mian to persevere until now.

Several streaks of light streaked across the sky and flew straight towards the direction of the war pass. They were the human ceilings returning from the front lines.

"Wang Mian." Zuo Qing's figure flew halfway and noticed the two people below. He slowly landed and said to Wang Mian, "Lingbao Tianzun is in the Heavenly Palace."

"Wait for me?" Wang Mian was slightly stunned, "Okay, I understand."

"Commander Zuo, where are you going?" Lin Qiye asked.

"The fighting here has come to an end. I need to go back to Chennan Pass. Shao Pingge and the others are still there." Zuo Qing pointed to the plane in the pass. "Do you want to come with us?"

Lin Qiye thought for a moment, then nodded and followed closely behind Zuo Qing.

If nothing unexpected happens, An Qingyu, Jiang Er and Cao Yuan are also in Chennan Pass. I haven't been back for such a long time, they must be waiting anxiously. Since Zuo Qing is also going back, he might as well take a ride.

…

Morning South Pass.

General command room.

"Huh..." Shao Pingge lay on the office chair, took a long breath, and relaxed lazily, "They are finally back... If they don't come back, I will be exhausted to death. This commander-in-chief is really not a human job. Even the chair is so hard, it's not comfortable to lie down at all."

Yuan Gang, who was sitting in front of him, rolled his eyes silently, "You are tired as hell! Didn't I help you with the documents these days?! I am the temporary commander-in-chief! You are just sleeping here!"

"Oh, yes, yes, Commander Yuan is right." Shao Pingge smiled very perfunctorily.

Upon hearing the news that Zuo Qing and the others had returned, everyone at Chennan Pass relaxed. The successive wars had left them physically and mentally exhausted. The return of the gods of Daxia and many human ceilings undoubtedly gave them a great sense of security.

"By the way, Commander Zuo just sent a message that we can withdraw the people from Chennan Pass and let them return to their respective bases and have a good vacation."

"Everyone retreat? Won't anything happen? What if Olympus or Czar attacks us?"

"Who knows? Maybe the gods of Daxia have their own plans." Shao Pingge shrugged. "But I think that there will be no war in the short term. The army of [Black Goat] was scared off by the return of the gods of Daxia. It will take time for them to make a comeback. As for Olympus... Hehe, it's good enough that they don't try to hide from us. We haven't settled the account of exiling the gods of Daxia yet."

Yuan Gang nodded slightly, "So, we can go back now?"

"We can't. I have to stay at the front line to maintain the Dream Network and prevent any scoundrels from taking the opportunity to sneak into Daxia."

"???" Yuan Gang's eyes widened, "What does it have to do with us if you stay here?"

"I've left everything behind. Are you embarrassed to go back on vacation alone?"

"?"

Just as the two were arguing, a familiar figure came in from outside the door and looked at them with a smile.

Seeing that man out of the corner of his eye, Shao Pingge immediately cleared his throat and said, "Commander Zuo."

"Commander Zuo." Yuan Gang silently put away his sandbag-sized fist and stood behind Shao Pingge.

Lin Qiye followed behind Zuo Qing, also looking at the two people in front of him with a smile. On his way here, his mental power had already taken in the entire scene.

"How does it feel to be the commander-in-chief?" Zuo Qing asked with a smile.

"Don't mention it. There are so many troublesome things, and the pressure is too great. I can't even sleep well..." Shao Pingge muttered to himself for a long time, and Yuan Gang behind him almost popped his eyes out.

It's so troublesome?! Have you read the documents?!

"...Alas, I am used to being idle on weekdays, and I really can't handle the position of commander-in-chief." Shao Pingge shook his head, "Fortunately, you are back."

Shao Pingge stood up from the chair and gave it to Zuo Qing, as if the chair was something hot and he didn't want to stay there any longer.

Zuo Qing didn't seem surprised by this. He smiled and said, "By the way, how is the matter I just notified you about going?"

"They have already been notified. They should have packed up their things and are preparing to return to their respective bases."

"Where are the remains of the martyrs who died?"

"They have all been sent back. Calculating the time, we should arrive earlier than them."

Zuo Qing nodded slightly, "Thank you two for your hard work during this period."

"Captain Shao, where are my team members?" Seeing the two men hand over their business, Lin Qiye finally asked.

Hearing this, Shao Pingge paused, opened his mouth, and his expression seemed a little bitter.

"them……"

"Did something happen to them?" Seeing his expression, Lin Qiye's heart skipped a beat.

"…It's not a big deal…Come with me."

Shao Pingge sighed and walked towards the building next door, with Lin Qiye following closely behind him.

A few minutes later, Shao Pingge came to the door of a medical room and knocked gently.

Knock knock knock——

There was a rustling sound coming from behind the door. After a moment, the door of the medical room was opened, and a haggard figure stood behind the door. It was Cao Yuan.

"Captain Shao, you..." Cao Yuan was halfway through his words when his peripheral vision suddenly glanced behind him, and then a glimmer of light lit up in his eyes.

"Nanaye?! You're back?!"

Lin Qiye stood at the door of the medical room, feeling more and more uneasy. "Who's in trouble?"

Cao Yuan opened his mouth but said nothing. He just silently took a half step back. Lin Qiye quickly walked in.

On the bed in the middle of the room, a figure was lying quietly on the snow-white sheets, with various instruments connected to the body, making a ticking sound...
