Guardian Feng shook his head. "No, our Never-Sleeping City has now become an empty city. It seems that there is no special meaning to leave someone on guard."
These words were spoken calmly, but the listeners had faces filled with sadness and grief.
Especially the housekeeper Uncle Quan, his eyes were dry, red and swollen from beginning to end. After all, there are thousands of people in this city that never sleeps, which one has not passed through his hands?
He could even call out most of them by name.
But what about now?
They were all dead, one by one; for some, he didn't even see their bodies.
Especially the miserable conditions of those girls, even now he can't help but burst into tears when he thinks of them.
Uncle Quan's sadness and the sorrow in other people's eyes made Ling Yuan feel uncomfortable and blame himself.
"It's all my fault. It's all my fault that the experiment failed and caused the spiritual power to be exhausted. If not, we might not have lost so many people."
Her behavior was very selfish. Originally, no one in the Never-Sleeping City would have to die. Bingyi could have solved the crisis by simply taking them all into the space.
But by doing so, she would put herself at the center of public attention, becoming an outlier among the crowd, and the object of plunder on this continent.
After thinking it over, she finally decided not to do so.
So, she could only watch the City That Never Sleeps become a deserted city and a punching bag in the eyes of these enemies.
"How can this be your fault, Second Miss? If anyone is to blame, it should be our lack of strength. This has nothing to do with you!"
"That's right. The other side has fifty purple-level masters. Even if it were a white-level master, he might not be able to withstand it!"
"Miss, there is no need to blame yourself. This has nothing to do with you. You are already injured, and I am blaming myself for not protecting you!"
Everyone rushed to speak up to excuse her, which made Ling Yuan feel even more guilty. But at this moment, she could not help at all. The only thing she could do was to heal their wounds.
"Everyone is tired, take a rest first, I'll go prepare something to eat for you."
After healing, she arranged rooms for everyone, and under her mandatory request, they reluctantly went down to rest.
After this examination, she realized how serious their injuries were. Compared with her internal injuries, no one was much better than the other.
This made Ling Yuan even more depressed. After leaving Mingyue Tower, she looked at the night sky with a worried look on her face, which had become starless without her knowing when.
"Those people, I don't know if there will be a second wave?"
Her uneasy heart made her unable to calm down at all. In desperation, she unconsciously summoned out all her pets.
"Although you can't transform yet, you will have no problem scouting the enemy's situation. So, go around the city that never sleeps and tell me if you see any movement. This night is too long and I'm afraid my heart will jump out of my chest."
She always felt insecure because she had no real strength to support herself, especially when these people suddenly retreated, which made her even more uneasy.
With such an uneasy mood, she cooked a bowl of plain noodles for everyone.
Under the intense pressure, he finally couldn't help but send a flare into the sky that was gold inside and black outside.
When the flare bloomed with different colors in the air, the man in black with one arm hidden in the woods suddenly stood up.
The other assassins were also tense: "Master, the Never-Sleeping City has actually asked for help. Could it be that they have discovered us?"
The man with the broken arm sneered, "It's too late to ask for help now!"
After the flare is sent out, it will take at least three to four hours for them to arrive. By that time, their reinforcements will have already arrived and the City That Never Sleeps will have already been in their hands. How could these reinforcements have a chance to interfere?
"Master, when will our reinforcements arrive?"
The man with the broken arm calculated the time and said, "There are still two hours left. Hurry up and gather your strength. In the next battle, we must succeed and not fail!"
"Yes, I will definitely live up to your expectations."
Failing once is already a disgrace, but if you fail a second time, there is really no hope.
The city that never sleeps under the dark night is filled with a sense of desolation and bleakness after a heavy blow. Ling Yuan stands in front of the Mingyue Tower, moving back and forth, as if waiting for something.
At the same time, on a lookout tower somewhere in the Sifang Continent, a well-trained person shuddered suddenly after seeing the lone flare blooming in the night sky, and ran towards the village with excited looks on his face.
He ran while shouting, "There is news, there is news, hurry up, report to the masters, there is news."
What they never expected was that someone could see through the signal unique to their force at a glance.
"Hey, you're not going to leave now, are you?"
Yu Hen looked at the person who suddenly jumped down from the tree, his tired expression full of shock and dissatisfaction.
While packing his luggage, Wei Jie asked without raising his head, "If something happened to your queen, would you be anxious?"
Yu Hen frowned suddenly and sat up straight, "What do you mean by that? Did something happen to your princess?"
But then he changed his mind and looked at him in great confusion: "No way? Your princess is really still alive? Why does it sound so magical to me? And you haven't told me yet, how did you know?"
Wei Jie was really fed up with someone's chattering these days. Now seeing him like this, he was happy to leave.
"Of course I saw it with my eyes. If you are very tired, just stay here. I will go first."
Yu Hen hesitated for a moment, then stood up in a panic, "Hey, don't go, wait, why are you leaving me alone? I want to go with you, so that one more person can take care of me."
Wei Jie felt that his time was very precious. How could he possibly wait for someone who had a grander show than anyone else, had more things than anyone else, and led an extremely complicated life?
Therefore, after Wei Jie had been riding the Fire Phoenix for half an hour, Yu Hen finally lay on the back of his own golden leopard, enduring the discomfort of vomiting from being thrown around, and did not dare to stop to rest...
However, in his heart he complained about Wei Jie from top to bottom, and even swore that he would take revenge on him when he reached his destination.
Of course, Gongzi Yan, who was familiar with Ling Yuan, also noticed the flare of the City That Never Sleeps.
However, Gongzi Yan, who was in a similar situation to Ling Yuan, was also besieged.
But compared to the grand plan of the City That Never Sleeps, Gongzi Yan only has two white-level masters.
These people had no idea of Gongzi Yan's strength, and they thought that they could just send two white-level masters to take care of her.
But what they never expected was that Gongzi Yan's spiritual power was so high that they could not even peek into it.
When Ling Yuan's flare popped up, Gongzi Yan had just knocked one of the white-level masters away.
When she saw the distress signal, her heart suddenly tightened, and then she turned into a stream of light and rushed to another white-level master.
As two inky-black halos flashed by, the man felt that his kneecap... was broken.
Unable to support his body, he knelt down in front of Gongzi Yan.
Gongzi Yan suddenly made a move and pressed the man's crown with the force of a strong man.
Realizing what she was going to do, the white-level master was immediately frightened and trembled like a sieve.
Suddenly, Gongzi Yan seemed to smell an unnatural and foul smell. When she noticed that something seemed to be flowing out from the man's crotch, she immediately frowned in disgust.
A dignified white-level master would actually be scared to death by her. Tsk, is this all he is capable of?
This is simply an insult to her as her opponent!
"Please, please let me go. I won't dare to do it again, never again!"
Gongzi Yan ignored his words and suddenly increased the strength of his hands. The man's breathing suddenly became heavy and his whole face turned blue and purple in an instant due to the sudden pressure from the strong man.
"You were ordered to hang me. Did anyone else go to the City That Never Sleeps?"
The man under his palm was unable to utter a word for a long time because of the heavy pressure. Gongzi Yan's eyes casually swept over the white-level killer who was about to escape: "Do you think you can escape? Come here!"
The man who had just stood up suddenly froze, trembling. He turned around cautiously and looked at her with an apologetic smile.
"Please spare our lives, sir. We are only following orders. If we knew you were so powerful, we would not dare to come here no matter what!"
"Tsk, if that's the case, then if my strength is not as strong as yours, then it will be your turn to kill me to your heart's content?"
"No, no, no, we dare not, we dare not!"
"Tell me, is anyone going to the City That Never Sleeps?"
"Yes, yes, yes. There are fifty purple-level masters and flying beasts. Calculating the time, the battle over there should have ended long ago!"
"What did you say? Fifty purple-level masters?"
Gongzi Yan gasped and increased the strength of his hands. The man's face instantly turned purple and black due to the powerful pressure, his eyes were red and he was in danger of exploding in the head at any time.
But Gongzi Yan didn't care about all this. He pulled the man's head off with one force and threw it into the arms of another person.
