Divine Flame Crystal

Chapter 319 Return to the Mercenary Group

Xiaowan took a deep breath and finally a smile appeared on her face. This young man seemed to be about the same age as her, but he had a maturity far beyond his peers, and what he said was reassuring.

After the two finished their meal, Xingluo felt his physical condition. Now that his strength had recovered and there were three more celestial bodies in his mind, he knew it was time to go back. With Xiaowan by his side, he planned to ask the other person what he thought: "Xiaowan, I'm leaving too. Come with me. It's too cold here." Xingluo said as he looked at the shop after the teacher left.

Xiaowan was shocked. She didn't expect that the boy would leave right after the teacher left. For a moment, she felt empty in her heart. After the teacher left, the place was already much quieter. If Xingluo left too, she would be the only one left here. Fortunately, Xingluo asked her to follow him. But she wanted to leave by herself, to leave this store, to leave this store where the teacher might not come back.

Xingluo continued, "Let's go. I'll arrange for someone to take over here. I'll tell you as soon as the teacher comes back."

Xiaowan gritted her teeth and seemed to have finally made up her mind. Although this was her home, was it still a home without her family? She didn't know, and she didn't want to know, so she followed Xingluo away, taking away almost everything. Xingluo helplessly watched Xiaowan put the items into the storage ring one by one, including the table, bed, chairs, and even the plates.

Finally, Xiaowan wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the shop which was now mostly empty. "Let's go, let's leave here."

Xingluo nodded: "Let's go to the teleportation array, and my name is Xingluo."

Xingluo? This name sounds so familiar, Xiaowan tried hard to recall it.

The light of transmission flashed, and Xingluo appeared near the mercenary group's base. Then, with Xiaowan, they appeared inside the mercenary group's base. Looking at the magnificent buildings around them and the busy figures, Xiaowan was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth. She remembered that Xingluo was the most outstanding graduate of the Luoshen Academy, the leader of the Sky City Mercenary Group, the new young magician, the founder of the enchanter, and the hereditary marquis master... She suddenly found that her fingers were not enough. These halos belonged to the boy in front of her who had been with her day and night for two years, and she had never noticed it. She suddenly felt a little inferior and hid behind Xingluo, because she suddenly saw a lot of people gathered around Xingluo, and they were all excitedly shouting "Master Xingluo".

Mo, Atlantis and others also rushed over, but they were a step too late. Xingluo was already surrounded by humans, dwarves, even elves and chimeras.

As more and more people gathered around Xingluo, Xiaowan had completely hidden himself in Xingluo's shadow, tightly grasping Xingluo's robe.

Xingluo said helplessly: "Don't be afraid, they are all our own people. Come out and I will introduce them to you."

Xiaowan was a four-pointed star alchemist after all. After a brief moment of cowardice, he mustered up his courage and just held on to Xingluo's clothes without letting go.

Xingluo greeted everyone and introduced Xiaowan to them. Soon everyone noticed the four-pointed star badge on Xiaowan's chest and were surprised that he was already a high-level alchemist at such a young age.

Xingluo finally got rid of everyone and Mo and the others came over. After not seeing them for two years, Xingluo discovered that they had all become high-level professionals. After all, they were all geniuses. Although they were slower than him, they were not much behind. Moreover, for some reason, the magic elements were unusually active recently and their meditation speed had increased a lot.

Xingluo exchanged a few pleasantries with everyone, and after arranging Xiaowan, he followed Mo to walk around the base. He immediately rushed to the place where the mirage dragon was sleeping, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the magic trap that had been reinforced. What he was most worried about was the dragon. Now it seemed that the situation was not bad, so he set up the magic circle again, and said to Mo while setting up, "Thank you for your hard work over the past two years."

Mo looked at Xingluo with some worry. He knew that he must have encountered something, otherwise he would not have disappeared suddenly. Although he told him that he was safe, he was still worried. "Where have you been in the past two years? Why didn't you come back?"

Xingluo smiled bitterly and said, "I was injured and found a place to recuperate. But I'm fully recovered, don't worry."

Xingluo said it lightly, but Mo was secretly shocked. How many injuries did the other party have that took two full years to recover? However, he knew that everyone had secrets, so he did not continue the conversation and started talking about the weather instead: "This is bad weather. Fortunately, the mercenary group responded in time and there were no casualties."

Xingluo looked at Mo with some amusement, and seeing the proud expression on his face, he said, "Yes, it's really thanks to you, otherwise I don't know what these people would do."

Mo was proud, but then his face turned stern again, as if he was not the one just now. Xingluo naturally caught the change in Mo's expression and found it a little funny. "Xiao Wan is my senior, please help take care of her."

Mo glanced at Xingluo with some doubt, but didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he nodded: "Don't worry."

This is why Xingluo likes chatting with Mo. She seldom asks many questions, but always does a great job in doing what she has promised.

"Thank you for your hard work these past two years." Xingluo said.

Mo's heart warmed, "I am the deputy leader, this is all part of my job, I like the mercenary group."

Xingluo nodded, and the two chatted for a while. Then Xingluo glanced at Luoluo who was high up and found that she was looking at him with a smile. He chatted with the elves and dwarves and finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the familiar faces. He had been worried about the safety of the mercenary group in the past two years. Now it seems that everyone is doing well and their strength is improving rapidly, which makes him completely relieved.

In the evening, in order to welcome Xiaowan's joining and to celebrate Xingluo's return, everyone held a dinner together. However, it was said that the proposer was the Huoyan Dwarf King, who rarely spoke. Xingluo shook his head helplessly and took out the white wine that had been prepared long ago and distributed it to everyone. Seeing the wine, Huoyan finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had been saving his wine for fear that Xingluo would not come back and he would have nothing to drink.

Everyone is very happy, especially Xiaowan, who has completely integrated into the group. She has known how to read people's expressions since she was a child and is not annoying. Everyone quickly accepted her, and to her, Xingluo's friends are her friends, the companions that Xingluo trusts, whom she can also trust, because she knows that she is stupid, so since the companions recognized by Xingluo who is so smart, then they are also her companions.
