"Many fairies have recovered, as well as the Queen. Not only that, but the King may also arrive soon, considering that a few days have passed since this incident," Fu Xie Lan replied in one breath.
Xue Ning didn't make a sound anymore and only seemed to be nodding her head.
That night, they all chose to rest before traveling back to the wizard's territory.
***
The morning sun was scorching hot, there were six people in blue robes lined up on the edge of the cliff, they were Elders Huang Bao, Fu Xie Lan, Wan Lie, the Xue Ning, Xue Ying, and Ju Xian.
"Observing it a little longer like this, it turns out that Fairy's territory is truly devastated," said Elder Huang Bao.
"Looking at the hills in the middle there, I can't imagine what the atmosphere will be like when the core region collapses. Just hearing it makes me shudder in horror," Xue Ning muttered to herself.
"Is it okay if we go back this soon, Xie Lan?" Xue Ning asked again looking to look at Fu Xie Lan who was standing next to her.
The girl only responded with a nod. "We've assisted as best we can, after all their King has also arrived this morning, and the Queen's condition is also not as bad as before," she said.
"Alright, then. Let's hurry," Elder Huang Bao chimed in.
Everyone seemed to nod in agreement with the old man's words, and after that, they all turned towards the gate of the Ocarina.
"Xie Lan, you are with me," said Xue Ning immediately standing behind the girl with a magic wand already in her hand.
"What do you mean? Xie Lan is always with me. Leave her with me," said Wan Lie immediately approaching the two girl figures.
Fu Xie Lan took a deep breath, feeling embarrassed by Wan Lie and Xue Ning's behavior.
"Wan Lie, let me be with Xue Ning," said the girl looking at the figure of the man she was talking to.
At the same time, the man pouted while heaving a rough breath and then spread his wings right then and there, flying first of the others without a word.
"Come on, Xie Lan," Xue Ning said.
Using their respective wands to reach the place, except for Wan Lie and Fu Xie Lan of course.
Until now, no one knew that the girl had a pair of wings. Everyone still assumed that the Fu Xie Lan they recognized before entering the Dark Zore was the same Fu Xie Lan as the current one.
There was only one difference they found about the girl, a difference that might not have any meaning at all. Fu Xie Lan who usually wore men's clothes and was very closed was now wearing a white dress with an open part of her back, exposing her flawless white skin.
Their exit from the gate of the Ocarina made several pairs of eyes look puzzled, however, none of them dared to approach.
Using the horse carriage to the gate of the wizard territory. But before reaching that place. They decided to rest for a while in the center of Kanca City.
And here they were, sitting in a not very spacious tavern. Eat a few dishes.
The atmosphere of the tavern is not too crowded, only seen a few people from different races, maybe the number can be counted on the fingers?
"Xie Lan, which territory are you going to next?" asked Wan Lie suddenly.
Fu Xie Lan raised her gaze, "I haven't thought of that yet," she replied immediately.
"This time, I want to come along, don't refuse," said Wan Lie, still looking at Fu Xie Lan.
"I also."
"Me too, Xie Lan. Let us come with you," Xue Ning and Ju Xian said almost simultaneously.
"I don't want anything to happen to you, even if my strength isn't much, I can at least protect you as best I can," Xue Ning said again.
"What Xue Ning said is true, it's lucky that nothing happened to you when the Fairy Core region collapsed. I can't imagine if you were hurt back then, maybe I'll blame myself for the rest of my life just for following your wish not to follow you," Wan Lie added at length and was immediately nodded by the others.
"This time, let them follow you, little girl. It's enough that I can't continue to be beside you. With them, at least I feel less worried," said Elder Huang Bao.
"After all, their strength has increased drastically. Although it's nothing compared to you, at least you won't be alone if you face danger," he added.
Seeing the enthusiasm of all of them, for some reason Fu Xie Lan felt touched, warmth enveloped her heart again. She liked this, she liked their presence around her.
If only she could, the girl wanted to live freely and peacefully together with all of them, without having to do many things like looking for pieces of the ruby star stone or unraveling a mystery that happened hundreds of years ago.
However, to obtain such a life, she must first remove the seal on her body so that her soul does not disappear when the silver blood moon occurs.
"Alright. You can follow me," said Fu Xie Lan after a few minutes of silence.
"Is that true?" Xue Ning asked wanting to confirm what reached her senses of hearing.
"Erm," Fu Xie Lan nodded.
The girl immediately hugged Fu Xie Lan from the side, smiling happily.
"Thank You."
"Thank you for letting us be by your side," Xue Ning said again.
Fu Xie Lan, who was treated like that, was suddenly speechless. Not without reason, because the one who should have said such a thing was her, she should be the one thanking them all.
"Let go of her, Xue Ning," Wan Lie rebuked.
"You're going to suffocate her," he added.
Xue Ning just snorted disapprovingly when she heard Wan Lie's words, the girl then let go of Fu Xie Lan's body and returned to her original position.
After the events of yesterday afternoon, the time when Wan Lie and Xue Ying fought each other, Wan Lie rarely interrupted or protested anything Xue Ning was doing. Only heard occasionally, and even then maybe because the man could not contain himself.
Ju Xian who was always observing the two figures only smiled faintly. In his opinion, it wasn't that Wan Lie didn't like Xue Ning.
It was just that with the way he treated Xue Ning, Wan Lie always had a chance to talk to the girl, even in a very unpleasant context.
And Ju Xian felt funny about it.
