Chapter 472 Returning Home
Cang Wu said indifferently, "I don't know either. I'm only responsible for opening this game. I don't understand the situation inside. Maybe after the game is completed, those people will automatically go back."
Long Xiaoyu couldn't wait to grab Xia Yueke's hand and said, "Keke, let's get out of here quickly. This guy won't do anything in the future anyway!"
He turned back to look in the direction of Cangwu again, "Can you release those who ascended earlier? At least let them recover their memories. There's no point for them to be here anyway, right?"
Cang Wu tutted his words, "How boring, got it, you guys can just get out of here."
Xia Yueke took one last look at him and left without looking back.
After leaving the palace, Xia Yueke and Long Xiaoyu walked on the road. "Long Xiaoyu, what happened after you went in? Why didn't I see you?"
Long Xiaoyu touched his nose and said, "I don't know what happened. As soon as I entered, I became one of the characters there. I'm still that scary one, doing bad things every day."
Xia Yueke burst out laughing.
"Hahaha, your identity is really impressive. But it's also thanks to you that the mission behind it was a mixed bag of good and bad. You also helped me. Otherwise, I would have definitely lost."
After understanding the situation, the two of them left without saying anything more and returned to their own territory.
Long Xiaoyu turned into a huge dragon and dragged Xia Yueke back to the tribe.
The tribe is still the same, just a little older.
The tribal houses were dilapidated. The outer mud walls had peeled away, revealing the wooden frames within. The thatched roofs were sparse and tangled, with many places torn by wind and rain. New straw had been piled on top, giving them a strange, almost nondescript appearance.
The doors and windows were crooked and deformed, and the wooden boards were cracked with dense lines, making a creaking sound when pushed lightly.
Xia Yue just thought it was caused by the disaster when they left, so she took a quick look and didn't take it to heart.
Long Xiaoyu frowned, feeling heavy-hearted. "How did it become like this? It wasn't that serious when we left. And why are there so few orcs here? Where did they go?"
Xia Yueke was also a little confused when looking at the dilapidated scene around her.
But he still forced himself to return to the familiar place, the big yard on the edge of the tribe.
As Xia Yueke and Long Xiaoyu stepped into the large courtyard on the edge of the tribe, they heard a burst of hurried footsteps.
Qian Jingyao rushed out first. His originally smooth fur was now a little messy, and his ears drooped limply.
The moment he saw Xia Yueke, his eyes suddenly lit up, tears flashed in his eyes, and his voice trembled:
"Coco, you're finally back!"
As he said this, he suddenly threw himself into her arms and hugged her tightly, as if he was afraid that she would disappear if he let go.
Immediately afterwards, Qing Yan limped out, his arm wrapped in a tattered cloth with faint traces of blood seeping out.
He ignored his own injuries, took a few steps to Xia Yueke, reached out his hand and gently stroked her face, his voice hoarse:
"Finally you're back! We were so worried about you."
Xia Yueke's eyes widened in surprise. She had never expected Qingyan to be able to speak fluently! This improvement was too fast. It seemed that Qingyan had been exercising regularly during her absence.
Lang Ce then appeared. He was thin and his face was tired, but his eyes were full of joy.
He stood quietly aside, waiting for Qian Jingyao and Qing Yan to calm down a little, then walked forward and took Xia Yueke and Long Xiaoyu into his arms, his voice low but full of power:
"Welcome home."
Xia Yueke looked at them, her eyes moistened. "What happened? Why are you all injured? And why is the tribe so dilapidated? Did something serious happen?"
Qian Jingyao smiled gently and shook his head. "It's not a big deal. It's just that the alliance with the Warcraft was broken because of Long Xiaoyu's disappearance. They want to take advantage of the chaos to attack the Orc Tribe, and Beast City is among them. Duzai Rongqiu and the others took An An and the others to help Beast City, and we stayed to protect the tribe."
Xia Yueke: ???
Did Duzi take An An to the Beast City? Wasn't he still that young? And he started fighting?
Xia Yueke suddenly felt that she didn't know what to say, as if something was wrong?
Just when Xia Yueke wanted to ask, Xiyuan rushed out from the house. He was much taller than before and hugged Xia Yueke directly.
"Great, you're finally back. Do you know how long we've been waiting? We all thought you'd never come back, just like those people before you..."
Xiyuan buried his face in Xia Yueke's neck, crying breathlessly and feeling like he was about to get a stitch in the side.
Xia Yueke was full of doubts. He had only been away for one day, so why did it seem like he had been away for a long time?
Xia Yueke's voice trembled as she glanced at Qian Jingyao, Qingyan, and the others inquiringly, "How long have Long Xiaoyu and I been walking?"
Long Xiaoyu also looked up at them, his pupils trembling violently.
"Half a year! Don't you know?"
Lang Ce answered first, looking at the two of them hesitantly.
Xia Yueke and Long Xiaoyu exchanged a glance. "So, one day there is equivalent to half a year?!?"
This time difference is a bit too unbelievable, but looking at the worry and sadness on Qian Jingyao and Lang Ce's faces, it doesn't seem fake.
Xia Yueke suddenly felt a lump in her throat. It was so infuriating. That person had actually lied to them and kept them here for so long.
Lang Ce quickly patted Xia Yueke on the shoulder and said, "Keke, no matter what, it's good that you're back. We'll never be separated again, right?"
Xia Yueke nodded with difficulty, her voice hoarse: "That's right, we will never be separated again, and those inexplicable things will never happen again. We are all fine and live together..."
Qian Jingyao took Xia Yueke's hand and shook it again and again, "Go back and sit down, it's no use being so polite outside."
"Where are Qi'an, Luo Cihe and the others? Did they go to fight Warcraft?"
Qian Jingyao nodded, "They should be back soon. You wait a little longer. An An and the others have been gone for a month as well."
An An... Dun Dun...
I don't know what happened to these two kids.
"How are An An and Dun Dun? Did they get upset after I left? How are they doing now?"
Xia Yueke was eager to know these things.
Qian Jingyao smiled gently, his eyes full of doting:
"An An is such a sensible kid. When you first left, he sat at the door every day waiting for you. No matter how much we tried to persuade him, it was useless. He stared longingly into the distance. His little look made us so sad. When he was hungry, he would just grab a few mouthfuls of food. He couldn't sleep well at night, and he would keep mumbling about when the mother beast would come back."
"Later, knowing you were going to do great things, he trained with Duzi and the others. He learned very well and was determined to become strong enough to protect you in the future."
