Chapter 522 Master, I'm Back
Everyone walked through the long corridor and came to a stone door.
Shi Heng stepped forward, stretched out his hand and knocked twice, then took two steps back and waited.
But after a moment, someone pushed open the stone door from the inside.
"What's the situation?" Along with the familiar voice, a familiar face appeared.
Luo Li, who was standing next to Shi Heng, waved with a smile.
Lan Xiaoxiao looked at Luo Li who was so close to her and suddenly screamed, "Ah——"
She wanted to speak, but found that her vocal cords seemed to be taken away by something, so that even though she had thousands of words in her heart to say, she couldn't utter a single word. She could only stare at the familiar face in front of her.
Luo Li's lips twitched, and she shook her head helplessly, "There's no need to be so excited."
Inside, Bei Mingyu and the others heard Lan Xiaoxiao's scream and rushed over like flying, "What happened?"
"Could it be that someone from the Tianyu Palace rushed in?!"
“That shouldn’t be the case!”
"I don't know, just go up and it's over."
The stone door burst open, and Bei Mingyu and his group moved like lightning, flashing across the threshold in an instant. The spiritual weapons in their hands reflected a cold light in the dim light. They looked around vigilantly, as if they could penetrate the stone wall and see the danger in every corner.
Lan Xiaoxiao's scream echoed in the empty room, adding to the tense atmosphere.
"Xiaoxiao, calm down!" Bei Mingyu stepped forward quickly and held Lan Xiaoxiao, who had a complicated expression on her face and was even about to cry. His brows were furrowed, and his eyes were full of concern and confusion.
No, this doesn't look like the expression one would have when seeing an enemy.
In the dim light opposite Luo Li, a helpless yet slightly teasing smile hung on the corners of his mouth, his hands raised lightly to show that he was harmless, as if to say, "Look, am I really that scary?"
Bei Mingyu frowned and looked over, then suddenly widened his eyes. Yue Hanchuan and the others noticed Bei Mingyu's condition and looked over in the direction Bei Mingyu was looking with confusion. It didn't look like an enemy attack.
Then, one stunned person became two stunned people, two stunned people became six stunned people.
A row of stunned people is also an eye-catching landscape here.
Shi Heng and the others were behind Luo Li, with a smile in their eyes.
Luo Li walked into the lighted area, waved her hands in front of the people, and smiled, "Don't you recognize me?"
She pretended to be sad, "Oh, I haven't seen you for only a year, have you forgotten me? I'm so sad."
At this time, the candlelight in the house flickered, and the interweaving of light and shadow stretched the figures of the people long and reflected on the stone wall, appearing both mysterious and tense.
The air seemed to freeze, and every sound was amplified infinitely, making people feel nervous.
Bei Mingyu and the others paused for a moment, rubbing their eyes in disbelief, then suddenly rushed forward and hugged Luo Li, "Ali!!"
At this moment, Luo Li was tightly embraced by a warm embrace, and the familiar breath instantly surrounded her, as if even time had stopped.
Her smile was even brighter in the dim candlelight, and her eyes sparkled with a glittering light, which was the joy and emotion of reunion.
An Shuxue and Lan Xiaoxiao's voices choked slightly as they whispered in her ears: "Ali, you're really back... We thought..."
Their words were not yet finished, but their emotions were already evident.
The air around them seemed to become softer, and the candlelight danced among Luo Li's hair, giving her a soft golden edge.
She patted Lan Xiaoxiao and An Shuxue on the back, and her eyes swept over each person who gathered around her. Every familiar face made her heart surge with endless warmth.
She chuckled softly, "Look how anxious you are! I'm fine, aren't I? I haven't seen you for a year. Is everyone okay?"
Bei Mingyu and the others reached out and poked Luo Li's face, as if to confirm that this was all real and not a dream.
Feeling the warm touch, everyone's eyes were blurred with tears, "Ari, we missed you so much!"
Luo Li was a little amused listening to the crying sounds around her ears, "Okay, okay, I'm fine, right?"
Everyone calmed down for a while, and when they saw the gazes of Shi Heng and the others behind them, they suddenly blushed.
Bei Mingyu coughed lightly and said, "Come in first, come in first."
Bei Mingyu and the others were the only ones in the room. Luo Li turned around and looked, "Where are the others?"
Mo Yizhou's eyes locked on Luo Li, his voice warm, "Grandpa Luo and his men retreated to Moyue City, a hundred miles away. Two days ago, they noticed something was amiss with Tianyu Palace, so they led their main force in a retreat."
Luo Li breathed a sigh of relief, "I see."
Yue Hanchuan looked at Luo Li and pursed his lips. "What happened outside just now? Even though the power fluctuations are underground and protected by the barrier, we can still feel them clearly."
Luo Li curved her eyes and said, "Let Qingqing and the others talk. I just came in halfway."
Lan Qing cleared his throat and said, "Let me tell you."
After talking about what happened outside, Luo Li turned around and walked to the center of the room.
She sat down at the large wooden table in the room, patted the table, and said with a smile on her lips, "Okay, now we should talk about business."
The others came over, sat down obediently, and then all turned their eyes to Shi Heng.
Shi Heng shook his head helplessly, these kids.
He walked over and sat across from Luo Li. "Wan Bai has pretty much told you everything. I'll just add a few more points."
Luo Li nodded, pricked up her ears and listened carefully, "Okay."
What Shi Heng said were all things that Bei Mingyu and the others did not know before, so they were also stunned.
Shi Heng's gaze swept across the faces of everyone in the room, finally landing on Luo Li's eyes, which were full of curiosity. He coughed lightly, his voice steady and magnetic.
The previous part was roughly the same as what Song Wanbai said. Tianyu Palace got the news that Luo Li had disappeared in the secret realm, and within a few days they began to forcibly inquire about Luo Li's whereabouts.
The first few months were just minor incidents, but not long after, these descenders landed on the Tianyuan Continent and joined the Tianyu Palace without any prior agreement.
Then the continent fell into chaos. After more than a month, they seemed to have discovered something, and the offensive against the four empires slowed down.
As he spoke, he took out a map and gestured on it. "Although I'm not sure exactly what they're looking for, the latest news says they're trying to find something like spiritual jade. They've been wandering around the Broken Soul Mountains."
Luo Li's pupils suddenly shrank. Spirit Jade?
She wrinkled her nose. Could it be what she thought?
At this moment, a long-lost voice sounded in my mind, "Yes, it's what you think."
Luo Li's attention was immediately diverted, "Qing Feng?!"
Qing Feng's voice rang out again, "Hehe, it's me, young master, I'm back."
