Chapter 560: The Golden Desert
The two ran to the lakeside, just one step away from stepping into the water!
As the tornado behind them drew ever closer, Yun Fusang gripped the boy's hand tightly, her gaze resolute: "Let's jump in!"
Xie Qingui met her gaze, and without any hesitation, he tightened his grip on her hand and leaped into the lake—
Two splashes of water were heard as the water fell into the water, and transparent water droplets splashed everywhere before slowly returning to calm.
The tornado lingered on the shore for a while before quickly dissipating.

When Yun Fusang slowly opened her eyes, she found herself lying on Xie Qingui, the two of them on top of a towering boulder.
That's strange, shouldn't she be in the lake?
She propped herself up and looked up, only to see an endless expanse of golden desert before her.
The wind was blowing with tiny specks of sand, which stung my skin and made me very uncomfortable.
"Qin Gui, Qin Gui, wake up!"
Yun Fusang nudged Xie Qingui, who slowly awoke. He sat up and looked around, asking, "Where am I...?"
Seeing that he was awake, Yun Fusang breathed a sigh of relief: "I don't know where we are either. Are you hurt?"
"Huh? I didn't... Ouch!" Before he could finish speaking, Xie Qingui was in excruciating pain, supporting his head.
Yun Fusang's expression changed slightly. She quickly took off the Liuxia Silk and found that there were some bloodstains on the soft gauze!
She went around to Xie Qin Gui's back and saw a clear wound on the back of his head, from which blood was seeping out, but the injury was not serious.
Yun Fusang couldn't help but look up and saw a long, watery-colored spot of light reflecting off the sky.
They jumped down from the spot of light. Qin Gui landed headfirst to protect her, which is why he was injured when he hit a rock.
Yun Fusang felt a pang of self-reproach: "I'm sorry."
Xie Qingui looked up in surprise and saw the girl's serious expression. He smiled and said, "Don't say things like that."
Yun Fusang took a deep breath and took out bandages and medicine bottles from her storage ring: "Don't move, let me bandage you up."
She quickly bandaged Xie Qin Gui's wound. Xie Qin Gui observed the expression on her face, and after he finished bandaging, he gently took her hand: "Don't blame yourself, okay?"
Yun Fusang looked at him, shook her head, and asked again, "Does it hurt?"
Xie Qingui laughed heartily: "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Seeing him smiling so happily despite his injury, Yun Fusang sighed helplessly, "...What an idiot."
"I don't want you to get hurt, so it's okay, it really doesn't hurt much."
Xie Qingui pointed to the bandage on his head, then pulled Yun Fusang up to stand: "Alright, now we need to continue searching for a way to leave the Remnant Wind Secret Realm."
Looking at the boundless desert, Yun Fusang immediately activated her pupil technique.
Beneath the desert, where countless red threads were intertwined, something seemed to be flowing.
Upon closer inspection, Yun Fusang saw a serpentine creature with two pairs of wings.
The next second, a fierce wind arose, sand and stones flew everywhere, and a spirit beast flew out from under the desert, opening its blood-red maw towards the two of them!
Yun Fusang felt a sudden tightness in her chest, immediately pulled Xie Qin Gui up, and leaped off the boulder, summoning her contracted beast: "Little White!"
With a roar, the Lingbing White Tiger was summoned from the mental space, catching the two people who jumped down on its back, and then quickly ran forward.
Xie Qin Gui looked back and saw the spirit beast relentlessly pursuing him, spreading its two pairs of wings as thin as cicada wings and charging towards him like an arrow—
