Mobas looked furious and flew up angrily.

"Your opponent is me."

Yun Yun took a step forward and stopped Mobas's advance with just a sword.

"The Ultimate Wind - Sunset!"

She did not hold back at all and directly slashed out with a dazzling sword light. The vast sword energy pressed down and forcibly forced back the group of powerful snakemen.

"Xu Qi, let's go!"

Yun Yun pulled Xu Qi, and the two of them left quickly, flying in another direction, deliberately attracting fire for Gu He.

……

"The strange fire is in you?"

Over the desert, Yun Yun and Xu Qi were flying side by side, and she suddenly asked.

Xu Qi was shocked and hesitated whether to tell the truth.

Yun Yun continued, "I can feel the aura of the strange fire. Although it is subtle, for a Dou Huang, even if it is just a little different, he can tell it apart."

"Moreover, your cultivation has broken through to the two-star Dou Wang. Absorbing strange fire can improve your cultivation."

Xu Qi: “…”

He thought he had hidden himself well, right? How come he was still discovered?

"Yes, the strange fire was indeed absorbed by me."

In the end, Xu Qi told the truth.

Because he felt that he couldn't lie to Yun Yun.

"Are you going to take my strange fire back and give it to Gu He?"

This time it was Xu Qi's turn to ask.

"Why do you want to give the strange fire to Gu He?" Yun Yun asked back.

"Well, aren't we here this time to protect Gu He and obtain the strange fire?"

"Our mission is to ensure his safety. Whether he can get the strange fire is his own business and is not within the scope of my mission." Yun Yun said.

"Besides, since it's the same Strange Fire, I think it's better to give it to you than to Gu He."

Xu Qi heard something strange in the latter part of this sentence.

Why does this feel a bit like... pampering between lovers? ?

……

Chapter 60, A Room

"Instead of giving this strange fire to Gu He, I think it would be a good idea to give it to you." Yun Yun said softly with a hint of unintentional doting on her face.

Although Gu He is the elder of the Yunlan Sect, he is also the Alchemy King of the Jia Ma Empire and the only sixth-grade alchemist.

But in comparison, she would rather let the strange fire fall into Xu Qi's hands.

"Besides, you got it by your own ability, so it's only right for me to give it to you. There's nothing wrong with that."

"Hehe." Xu Qi scratched his head embarrassedly.

It was the first time that he felt Yun Yun's preference for him.

"But..." Yun Yun changed the subject.

"The reason you came to the Tagor Desert with me was because you wanted to get the strange fire from the beginning, right?"

Those bright eyes looked at Xu Qi, as if they could see through all of Xu Qi's lies.

"Ahem...Sister Yun Yun, how can you look at me like that?"

Xu Qi coughed lightly, and with a thick face, he said seriously without blushing or beating his heart,

"Strange Fire is just something that is dispensable to me. It was just a coincidence that I got it this time."

"But the reason I followed you from the beginning was not for the strange fire, but to be able to be with you."

He looked into Yun Yun's eyes lovingly and said softly, "For me, it doesn't matter where I go, as long as I can be with Sister Yun Yun."

Such affectionate and artificial words gave even Xu Qi goosebumps after hearing them.

But it is very useful for Yun Yun.

Even though she is the leader of the Yunlan Sect and is not young anymore, she has experienced a lot.

But when it comes to relationships, Yun Yun's experience is still pretty idiotic.

It's not that she is conceited, but at her level, with her strength and status, her vision and demands will naturally be higher.

Looking across the entire Gama Empire, there are only a few men she can look up to.

The only one who can be considered pretty good is probably Furukawa.

Lian Yunshan had always thought that Gu He and Yun Yun were a good match, but Yun Yun had no feelings for Gu He at all.

So in the past few decades, she has been almost blank in terms of love.

"You're just telling lies. Do you want to deceive me like this?"

Yun Yun snorted coquettishly to show her dissatisfaction with Xu Qi's words.

But the corners of her mouth that couldn't help but curl up betrayed her true thoughts.

In this way, the two flew together, chatting from time to time on the road, and they talked about the matter of the strange fire.

In fact, it was because Yun Yun was not very interested in strange fire, and she came here only for Gu He's sake.

She had done everything she should have done - escorting Gu He along the way, helping Gu He open a gap in the snake people's defenses, and allowing him to successfully enter the snake people's city.

As for not being able to find the strange fire, it was entirely due to Gu He's own reasons and had nothing to do with her.

The same goes for Xu Qi.

He agreed to escort Gu He to find the Strange Fire, but he did not necessarily help him find the Strange Fire, nor did he say that he would give the Strange Fire to Gu He after he got it.

So, everything makes sense!

……

The two flew all the way out from the depths of the desert until the outline of a city appeared in front of them, and then they slowed down.

"Let's take a rest in the city ahead first." Yun Yun took the initiative to say.

"Really? We don't need to meet up with Elder Gu He and the others?" Xu Qi asked again for confirmation.

"No, I have already informed them and asked them to leave on their own."

Although the Snake People were furious, Gu He and his companions were not weak either. Moreover, they had already escaped so far in advance. Even if the eight leaders of the Snake People gathered together, they would not be able to catch up with them.

"That's okay, let's just stroll around here and enjoy the scenery." Xu Qi stretched lazily.

This city is Mocheng.

Located close to the Tagor Desert, it is a relatively large city with a bustling population and exotic atmosphere.

The two of them restrained their breath and walked on the street full of enthusiasm. Xu Qi couldn't help but look at the people around him.

Because it is close to the Tagor Desert and the climate is hot, people living here wear cool clothes.

Regardless of whether they are men or women, they basically wear short-sleeved shirts and shorts, revealing large areas of skin to keep cool.

Of course, Xu Qi was not looking at those burly muscular men, but those exotic women with healthy, dark skin and graceful figures.

I have to say that although the women here generally have dark skin, they have good figures, beautiful curves, graceful postures, and a somewhat exotic charm.

As Xu Qi was watching, a cold voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Does it look good?"

"Looks good... No, what I mean is, very healthy." Xu Qi quickly changed his words and turned around to see Yun Yun looking at him with an unfriendly expression.

"Ahem... Let's find a place to stay first."

Xu Qi was so smart that he immediately changed the subject and walked quickly towards a restaurant in front that looked very luxurious.

Yun Yun snorted coldly, but followed him anyway.

……

"You two, do you want to eat or stay overnight?"

Seeing that the two men looked tired but obviously elegant, the restaurant owner did not look down on them and greeted them warmly.

"Accommodation, two superior rooms." Xu Qi said generously.

"I'm really sorry, you two. There is only one room left in our store right now," said the boss.

Xu Qi: “???”

He remembered that he had not greeted this boss, right?

So good at doing things?!

But when Yun Yun heard this, her beautiful eyebrows slightly furrowed, and she said, "Since there is no room, let's change one."

Without waiting for Xu Qi to speak, the shop owner continued, "You two don't need to waste your energy. These few days are the days of our annual grand feast in Mo City, and it is very popular."

"I believe you have seen it when you came here. The streets are bustling with people. Many of them came from outside. At present, except for the small shops, all other restaurants in the entire Mo City are already full."

"You don't want this room. Once you leave and come back, I'm afraid it will be gone."

Not that the shop owner had any objection.

This is simply because this restaurant is the most luxurious restaurant in the entire Mo City, and the room prices are naturally the most expensive.

But even so, they only had one room left, which was enough to show that there were too many outsiders in Mo City recently.

Seeing Yun Yun wavering, Xu Qi continued,

“Yes, Sister Yunyun, there are so many people here now, every second counts!”

"If we don't have this room, I'm afraid we won't have a place to rest."

"It's okay to have one room. You can sleep on the bed and I'll sleep on the floor. I'm used to it. It's okay."

He said seriously.

Yun Yun was still hesitating.

As the clan leader, she was used to good treatment. Although she was not incapable of enduring hardships, she naturally wanted to live in a good room if she had good conditions.

"Okay, let's get a room..."

……

Chapter 61: Everything about Yun Yun

"It's such a coincidence that I caught up with the feast here. I can just go shopping."

In the luxurious room, Xu Qi looked through the window at the situation outside.

The streets and alleys are full of bustle.

Eat, drink, and have fun.

Such a lively place, and full of exotic customs, Xu Qi was very excited.

"It's just so-so, not even as good as usual in the capital." Yun Yun took a look and gave a relatively low evaluation.

The Yunlan Sect is close to the Holy City of Jiama, so Yun Yun would naturally visit the imperial capital often.

Compared with the Holy City of Gama, this small border city is indeed much less lively.

"It's been so hot in the desert for so many days. I'm going to take a shower. Don't peek!"

As Yun Yun spoke, she suddenly looked at Xu Qi seriously and warned him.

Xu Qi immediately stood at attention: "I promise I won't!"

But, just take a shower, why should I tell him specifically?
