"Yunxi, you are the main person in charge of this mission. Liyun is only at the intermediate level. He is far inferior to you in terms of combat power and experience..."
Lu Yunxi was completely confused after listening to the Palace Master's explanation.
The Palace Master had made it very clear, but she didn't understand! What marriage, what cooperation...was it what she thought?
"Senior Sister?" Someone gently touched her fingers.
Lu Yunxi shuddered and came back to her senses, only to see Wen Liyun looking at her with a worried look on his face.
"W-What happened?"
"Senior Sister, the Palace Master told you to get ready. The teleportation array will be activated in about a quarter of an hour. Do you have anything you haven't taken yet? You should hurry and pack it up."
"Ah..." Looking at Wen Liyun's handsome face so close to her, she subconsciously held her breath and stepped back a little.
Touching the tip of her ear, which was a little hot, she laughed dryly: "I've packed everything... Liyun, are you really willing to marry someone else? If you don't want to..."
"Sister, I'm willing. I'm happy to be able to help the sect." Wen Liyun shook his head gently and raised a finger to her lips. A strand of his hair brushed across her cheek. His light brown pupils radiated a gentle light as he looked at her quietly. "Besides, it doesn't necessarily mean I can marry someone. I don't know who their sect will allow the marriage to happen. It could also be you... Senior Sister, you should be worried."
When he said this, he frowned slightly, with a fragile beauty that made people want to take their hearts out and give them to him.
"If I really have to choose, I would rather marry them than have my senior sister go... After all, when it comes to marriage, girls are always the more vulnerable party."
Lu Yunxi looked at Wen Liyun's eyes full of sincerity, her eyes moved slightly, and the tips of her ears turned red again unconsciously.
"Yunxi, Liyun! Get ready to go!" A loud shout came from outside, interrupting their conversation.
…
Looking at the teleportation array with twinkling stars in front of him, Lu Yunxi was slightly stunned.
So it's possible to open the teleportation array manually? Then what about her drifting on the sea before... Did she forget to recharge her IQ?
"Yunxi, I've already given you the letter. Just give it to the leader of the Desert Gate when the time comes." The Palace Master handed her a large ship and asked her to put it inside the package. "Keep this ship. If the cooperation falls through, you can take the ship back. The teleportation array can only take you there. It's useless after using it once."
Lu Yunxi: ...
It turns out this thing is disposable. This teleportation array, which can only accommodate two people, requires the cooperation of all the elders and palace masters to barely create it!
"What if the cooperation is successful? Should I write to you?" Lu Yunxi asked after putting away the big boat.
"If our cooperation is successful, the Desert Gate will automatically know our location and establish a two-way teleportation array. You can then return directly," the Palace Master said. He didn't explain further and gestured for them to quickly step onto the teleportation array. "Hurry up, we can't hold on any longer. You'll know once you get there."
Lu Yunxi and Wen Liyun were pushed.
The moment he stood on the platform, a flash of red light appeared on the teleportation array.
Her expression was a little subtle.
This is the first time I've seen red light. It looks a bit ominous... Will anything bad happen?
Ugh! Stop being so superstitious!
After everything went dark before their eyes, the green mountains and clear waters around them completely disappeared. When they opened their eyes again, only a vast and endless desert remained.

"Senior Sister, are you cold?" Wen Liyun watched the sky darken and felt the temperature begin to drop, and couldn't help but worry about her.
As he spoke, he took off his sheepskin coat - this was also something created by adventurers, warm and fashionable.
Lu Yunxi was about to refuse when she saw that the coat had already been put on her, still carrying his residual warmth and a faint scent of pine.
Her body stiffened involuntarily for a moment, and her ears turned red in an instant.
"Liyun, stop bothering me. I'm not cold. But you gave me your clothes. Will you feel cold?" Seeing that he was about to take off his clothes again, she quickly reached out to stop him.
Although clothes in ancient times were layered and worn in many layers, each layer was very thin. If this continued, he would probably freeze into an ice stick.
Seeing that she wasn't really that cold, Wen Liyun stopped talking and smiled at her, "Sister, don't worry about me. I'm very capable. I'll be promoted to a senior level soon. This little thing won't faze me!"
After that, a gust of cold wind blew by.
He shuddered uncontrollably and sneezed.
Lu Yunxi was almost amused by this little junior brother. He took off his sheepskin coat and carefully put it on him.
He turned his head and was about to refuse.
She held his hand down, preventing him from moving: "Okay, Liyun, don't move. It will be bad if your clothes fall off. Don't catch a cold before you reach your destination!"
…
In the dark night, two tents stood somewhere in the desert, with a fire burning and the firewood crackling.
Lu Yunxi looked at the map given to him by the Palace Master and fell into confusion.
The teleportation array can only teleport them to a random place in the desert continent.
The Palace Master told them that after arriving at the desert continent, they should follow the directions on the map and place the letter on the ground when they reached the entrance of the desert gate. This way, the desert gate would sense the letter and open its doors.
but--
Now they have a problem.
