Ding Peng stood aside, looking at the collapsed Qin Jiaojiao. He hurried forward and gently patted Qin Jiaojiao's shoulder, trying to calm her down. He said loudly: "Jiaojiao, don't say that! Teacher Wang Zhiyao must have her considerations for making this decision. No one expected to encounter such a strange thing. Now is not the time to complain. We have to find a solution together. We are all here, and we will definitely find a way out. Don't be so discouraged!"

As Ding Peng spoke, he gave Wang Zhiyao a firm look.

"As we all know, there are always more solutions than problems. It's just that we are lost, that's all." Teacher Wang Zhiyao was still trying to comfort everyone.

The dusk was falling, the setting sun was blood-red, and the fighting outside the city gate had just ended.

At this moment, the wounded wolves, dragging their heavy and staggering steps, slowly stepped into the Lost Dunes.

Their fur was covered in blood, both their own and that of the enemy, and every wound seemed to tell of the fierce battle that had just taken place.

The wind was howling, like a dirge for this brutal confrontation.

The wolves moved forward with difficulty. The sand dunes around them were dim and shadowy, as if countless unknown dangers were lurking there.

Just as Teacher Wang Zhiyao was comforting the students, a sharp wolf howl broke the silence.

Then, the howling of wolves came from all directions, echoing among the empty sand dunes. The sound was full of pain, anger and unwillingness.

To make matters worse, a strong wind came without warning, howling and blowing up dust and sand, making it impossible to open your eyes.

The sound of the wind was mixed with a low roar, which was the anger and indomitable spirit of the king of the wilderness.

The wind and sand gradually subsided, and a group of wolves appeared on the sand dunes.

Their bodies are strong and upright. Although they have wounds on their bodies, there is a fierce light flashing in their eyes.

The leading wolf howled to the sky, his voice filled with the desire to dominate this land.

They shook off the dust on their bodies, their manes rustling in the wind, and they looked down menacingly at the mysterious and dangerous Lost Dunes in front of them, as if announcing their arrival to this unknown territory.

Lost Dunes, not only are there endless sand dunes and frequent sandstorms, but more importantly, it hides countless unknown secrets.

There are all kinds of strange people here, but dangers visible to the naked eye, such as wolves, also exist.

Wolves living in the dunes...

Ding Peng and Qin Jiaojiao smiled at each other.

The two of them are a rare pair of lovers, and the magic they practice is also linked to the emotions between them.

Ding Peng is good at wind-based Qi techniques. He can control the power of wind to make it cut like a blade or protect like a shield.

The winds in the Lost Dunes were just strong enough to allow him to soar up to 90,000 miles like Kunpeng.

Ding Peng has sharp eyes and neat short hair fluttering slightly in the wind, and he exudes a lively and unruly temperament.

Qin Jiaojiao is a master of water-based Qi techniques. Her water Qi can be hard or soft. It can transform into raging waves to engulf the enemy, or heal wounds as delicately as silk threads.

She has a pretty face and a fierce yet tough personality. Her long hair falls behind her like a waterfall.

The water system can be used to control sand!
This group of huge wolves emitting black murderous aura rushed out from behind the sand dunes, looking at Wang Zhiyao and the other three with eagerness.

These wolves are not ordinary wild beasts, but evil wolves that have absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy.

Their eyes flashed bloodshot and looked fierce and aggressive.

Ding Peng and Qin Jiaojiao looked at each other, nodded in tacit understanding, and took the lead in attacking.

Ding Peng waved his hands quickly and muttered something. The air around him suddenly became violent and wind blades shot towards the wolves like lightning.

Wind blades swept past, and several evil wolves were hit, letting out painful howls.

However, the wolves did not retreat. They dispersed, nimbly dodged the wind blade attacks, and then quickly approached the two men.

Seeing this, Qin Jiaojiao formed seals with her hands in front of her chest, and a clear water energy gushed out from her hands, instantly turning into a water curtain that enveloped her and Ding Peng.

The evil wolves hit the water curtain and were bounced back, unable to get close for a while.

But the wolves were not willing to give up. They kept attacking the water curtain. Under the powerful impact, the water curtain began to ripple and it seemed that it could break at any time.

"Jiaojiao, this is not a solution. We must use the combined power of both Qi!" Ding Peng said anxiously.

"Okay, I'm ready!" Qin Jiaojiao responded firmly.

The two of them quickly approached each other, clasped their hands together, closed their eyes, and began to circulate the Qi in their bodies.

Under their control, Ding Peng's wind energy and Qin Jiaojiao's water energy gradually merged together.

The originally violent wind Qi became gentle, and entwined with the water Qi, forming a magical force.

This power has both the agility and speed of the wind and the tolerance and resilience of water.

With the fusion of the two Qis, the surrounding environment also underwent tremendous changes.

A thin layer of mist suddenly appeared on the originally dry sand dunes. The mist drifted in the wind and formed various strange shapes.

Above their heads, a huge water tornado slowly formed. The water tornado contained powerful wind blades that kept spinning, making a heart-pounding whistling sound.

The wolves seemed to feel threatened by this powerful force, and a hint of fear appeared in their eyes.

But driven by the power behind them, they still rushed towards the two people regardless of everything.

Ding Peng and Qin Jiaojiao shouted loudly, opened their eyes at the same time, and controlled the water tornado to rush towards the wolf pack.

The waterspout was like an angry dragon, sweeping across the entire sand dune.

The wind blades howled in the water, cutting everything around them. The evil wolves were sucked into the waterspout one after another, and were instantly torn into pieces by the wind blades.

For a moment, the sounds of wolf howling, wind, and flowing water were intertwined together.

The entire Lost Dunes fell into chaos...

However, there were simply too many wolves.

Despite the enormous power of the water tornado, some evil wolves still broke through the attack of the water tornado and pounced on the two.

Ding Peng and Qin Jiaojiao quickly retracted their Qi and each used their own Qi techniques to defend themselves.

Ding Peng controlled the wind to form a solid barrier to protect Qin Jiaojiao behind him.

Qin Jiaojiao transformed the water energy into countless sharp ice spikes and shot them at the evil wolf that was rushing towards her.

In the fierce battle, Ding Peng and Qin Jiaojiao gradually discovered that the power of these evil wolves seemed to be increasing. Every time an evil wolf was killed, the evil spirit of the other evil wolves would become stronger, and their attacks would become more fierce.

"Jiaojiao, there's something wrong with these evil wolves. They seem to be absorbing the power of their companions!" Ding Peng shouted anxiously.

"I felt it too. We must find out the power behind them as soon as possible, otherwise we will be in danger if this continues!" Qin Jiaojiao responded.

Suddenly, Ding Peng noticed a dark shadow flickering on a sand dune in the distance.

He looked closely and found that it was a little girl. What was even more surprising was that the little girl was making seals with her hands and controlling the wolves.

"Jiaojiao, look over there, that little girl is the mastermind behind this!" Ding Peng said, pointing at the little girl in the distance.

Qin Jiaojiao looked in the direction of Ding Peng's finger, with a hint of anger in her eyes. "We can't let her continue to control these evil wolves. Let's charge over!"

The two of them used their dual Qi to form a waterspout again. This time, they controlled the waterspout to rush towards the little girl.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the little girl quickly controlled the wolves to stop them.

But the power of the waterspout was so great that the wolves could not resist it at all.

Under the impact of the waterspout, the little girl had to give up controlling the wolves and focus on resisting the attack of the waterspout.

She danced her hands quickly, and black light shot out from her hands, trying to break up the waterspout.

But the wind blades and water energy in the water tornado worked together to continuously weaken the little girl's strength.

After a fierce fight, the little girl's strength was gradually exhausted.

Her face turned pale and her body began to stagger.

Seeing this, Ding Peng and Qin Jiaojiao seized the opportunity and increased the output of dual Qi.

The water tornado rushed directly towards the man in black robe like a cannonball.

With a loud "boom", the little girl was hit by the water tornado and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

As the little girl disappeared, the evil wolves fell to the ground one after another, and the evil spirit on their bodies gradually dissipated.

Ding Peng and Qin Jiaojiao let out a long sigh and slowly retracted their Qi.

They looked at the devastated sand dunes in front of them, feeling filled with emotion.

In the lost sand dunes washed by wind and sand, the sun shines down unhindered with a bit of heat.

Teacher Wang Zhiyao raised her hand and gently wiped the sweat from her forehead. Her eyes slowly swept across the three people in front of her, finally landing on Chu Tingting.

"Tingting, among the four of us, you have the best sense of direction and the strongest Qi." Teacher Wang Zhiyao's voice was gentle but with unquestionable firmness.

"There are continuous sand dunes all around, and the terrain is complex. I want you to be responsible for exploring the way out and find the direction for us to leave. What do you think?"

Qin Jiaojiao and Ding Peng had just experienced a fierce battle with the evil wolf. At this moment, their faces were a little pale and their bodies were still weak.

After hearing Teacher Wang Zhiyao's suggestion, Qin Jiaojiao subconsciously leaned towards Ding Peng and said with a tired voice, "Teacher, Ding Peng and I just finished fighting, and we really don't have much strength now. It's really good to stay together, and we can take care of each other."

At this point, she paused, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes, "But, teacher, I'm a little curious, why don't you go find the way yourself? You have much more experience than us."

Ding Peng quickly took over the conversation. He glanced at Teacher Wang Zhiyao, and a hint of imperceptible concern flashed in his eyes.

"Jiaojiao, I think it's better for you to stay with the teacher. The teacher has been in this alien world for many years and can handle all kinds of emergencies with ease. It's always safer to stay with the teacher."

In fact, only Ding Peng and Teacher Wang Zhiyao themselves knew that there was a secret affair between them, which made Ding Peng want to protect Teacher Wang Zhiyao at all times.

Chu Tingting listened to everyone's words quietly and nodded slightly.

She did not have much objection to Teacher Wang Zhiyao's arrangement.

"Okay, teacher, I'll go explore the way." Chu Tingting said, taking out a small cloth bag from her waist, which contained her specially made markers.

As she carefully marked the surrounding sand dunes, she spoke methodically, "I will leave marks at regular intervals, so that even if I can't find the way out, I can follow the marks and come back to meet you."

After doing all this, Chu Tingting walked straight towards the unknown sand dunes in the distance.

Her figure stretched very long in the sunlight and soon disappeared among the rolling sand dunes.

The night is as dark as ink, hiding all the noise and thrills of the day above the Lost Dunes.

Three closely adjacent tents cast blurry silhouettes in the silent night. The dim lights in the tents flickered slightly, as if telling each other's unknown secrets.

Teacher Wang Zhiyao tiptoed out of her tent. Under the moonlight, she was wearing a red bellyband with a mandarin duck pattern, which outlined her graceful figure. Her usually serious face now had a bit more charm and eagerness.

She walked straight to Ding Peng's tent and knocked gently.

Ding Peng was just about to take a rest when he heard the noise. His heart tightened. He lifted a corner of the tent and saw that it was Wang Zhiyao. His eyes widened instantly and he subconsciously wanted to refuse.

"Teacher Zhiyao, this is too dangerous. What if we are discovered..." Before he could finish his words, Wang Zhiyao had already sideways entered the tent, his eyes full of heat and desire.

This was the first time she was so proactive. Ding Peng looked at her in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.

An ambiguous atmosphere gradually spread in the tent, and some strange noises were heard occasionally.

Qin Jiaojiao, who was originally sleeping, frowned slightly in her sleep, and these subtle sounds woke her up.

She opened her eyes drowsily, pricked up her ears and listened carefully, and found that the sound came from Ding Peng's tent. She felt inexplicably uneasy.

"Zhi Yao, keep your voice down!" Ding Peng lowered his voice and said anxiously, his eyes full of worry.

Wang Zhiyao smiled nonchalantly, her voice soft but bold, "It's okay, it's so late, she must be asleep."

After a tender moment, Wang Zhiyao packed her clothes, tiptoed out of Ding Peng's tent, and prepared to return to her own tent.

But when she lifted the tent curtain, she saw Qin Jiaojiao sitting in her tent, staring at her coldly.

Wang Zhiyao was startled for a moment, but quickly regained her composure, with even a faint smile on her face, as if she had expected such a scene.

She walked into the tent, sat down on the blanket beside her slowly, looked at Qin Jiaojiao, and said bluntly: "You don't have to look at me like that. Ding Peng doesn't love you at all, you know. His family and your family are just business cooperation. He is with you more for the benefit of the family."

Qin Jiaojiao's eyes were filled with anger and unwillingness, "You are talking nonsense! Ding Peng is sincere to me. We have been through so much..."

Wang Zhiyao interrupted her and sneered, "Experience? The adventures you experienced together were just part of his plan. When he was with me, he complained more than once about his relationship with you, saying that it was a bondage."

Qin Jiaojiao was unwilling to believe Wang Zhiyao's words, but the scene before her made it impossible for her to deceive herself. (End of this chapter)
